D1 - I-535 Blatnik Bridge in Duluth: 2027 construction

Blatnik Bridge delivery method announced

MnDOT has decided to use the design-build delivery method to design and construct the Blatnik Bridge and its associated project scope. A project is being developed to replace the structure to current standards, add bike and pedestrian facilities and improve traffic operations. In addition, there will likely be one or more early design-bid-build contracts in preparation for the primary design-build contract. MnDOT and the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) will cost share in this project and are jointly seeking federal funding grants to match current state funds allocated to the project.

Visit the project webpage for the full announcement.
