3rd St Reconditioning- Mesaba Ave to 12th Ave E

The City of Duluth is continuing the reconditioning project begun in 2023 on East 3rd Street between Mesaba Avenue and 12th Avenue East. This reconditioning project is primarily intended to preserve the life of the existing roadway. Project work will upgrade the curb-to-curb pavement condition while upgrading intersection curb ramps and existing sidewalks to meet the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).  Traffic signals at the intersections of East 3rd Street and Lake Avenue, East 3rd Street and 6th Avenue East, and East 3rd Street and 10th Avenue East will remain; all others within the project area will be removed. The contractor will begin the project work on the right lane and switch to the left lane part-way through the year. The project is anticipated to be complete by October 2024. This project will be financed by the City of Duluth through federal and Minnesota State Aid for Streets funds. Given the availability of these non-local funds, property owners will not be assessed to pay for this project.
