Public meeting to discuss permanent traffic controls for Piedmont Avenue/24th Avenue West intersection in Duluth

The intersection of 24th Avenue West and Piedmont Avenue in Duluth has had a temporary stop light installed to help with the increased traffic flow during the Twin Ports Interchange Project. Prior to this, a stop sign was used for vehicles traveling on 24th Avenue West. Looking ahead to when the Interchange project is complete, St. Louis County Public Works engineers are conducting a study to determine what traffic controls would best serve the public long term.

County engineers are hosting a kickoff meeting to discuss the Intersection Control Evaluation Study and to gather feedback from the public. The meeting will be Tuesday, Sept. 19, at 6 p.m., at Denfeld High School in the West Commons area. 

Anyone who lives in or travels through this area is encouraged to get involved by attending the meeting or providing input through the county's project website. More information can be found online at https://piedmont-ave-study-slcgis.hub.arcgis.com/.
