May 21—GRAND FORKS — North Fourth Street in front of Grand Forks Central High School will be closed beginning May 27.
The closure will be in place until mid-October between First Avenue North and Second Avenue North, according to a city release. The city is working to improve the stretch of road in a $2.8 million project. Around $2 million of the project is being federally funded through the urban grants programs and approximately $774,000 million being funded locally.
During the project, pedestrian access will be retained in front of City Hall and the high school, but there will be no access to the parking lot between the two buildings. Additionally, the intersection of North Fourth Street and Second Avenue North will be closed.
On-street parking will remain in unaffected areas and public parking will remain available after 5 p.m. at the Central Ramp, City Hall parking lot and parking lot on the north corner of University Avenue and North Fourth Street.
In addition to street improvements, there will also be improvements to ADA access and streetscapes, matching those along DeMers Avenue and other parts of downtown. A previously proposed mid-block crossing in front of Central High School
is not included in the design as the space between intersections would be too small.
