Crane work at U of M Medical Center closes section of East River Parkway for three days
East River Parkway will be closed to vehicle traffic near the University of Minnesota Medical Center at 500 SE Harvard St. beginning Monday, Feb. 29 at 7 am and continuing until work is completed Wednesday, March 2.
The closure is necessary to hoist three new cooling towers onto the roof of the University of Minnesota Medical Center. This project has been delayed several times this winter due to high winds.
Southbound traffic will be detoured beginning at Arlington Street and northbound traffic at Harvard Street. Please follow all posted detour signage. The bike and pedestrian trails on the west side of the parkway will remain open.
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board appreciates the public's patience while the project is completed.
