Sioux City Marina reopening after year-long closure
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) — After being closed for more than a year, the Sioux City Marina is gearing up to reopen this summer. The Sioux City Marina will be reopening for summer Memorial Day weekend. The Marina will kick off its opening with a meet and greet that's open to local boaters so they have an opportunity to meet the new group in charge of the Marina after it changed hands earlier this year. Local officials said they are excited to get people back on the water at the Sioux City Marina. 'We're thrilled to welcome everyone back to Sioux City Marina,' Sioux City Parks & Recreation Director Matt Salvatore said. 'This season will be a time of transformation for the Marina. We are taking this opportunity to reinvest in the marina to ensure it remains a vibrant and safe destination for years to come.'

Construction resumes on Big Sioux Pedestrian Bridge
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) — There's some exciting news for Siouxlanders: the Big Sioux Pedestrian Bridge that will connect Iowa to South Dakota has officially resumed construction. The project was delayed due to the June flooding of the Big Sioux River, as well as some permitting issues. With construction underway, the pedestrian bridge in Sioux City is planned to be just north of Interstate 29 and will connect approximately 50 miles of recreational trails once complete. 18th Street in Sioux City to temporarily close Matt Salvatore with Sioux City Parks and Recreation told KCAU 9 that he was upset by the project's delay, but is excited that it's back on track. 'Yeah, it was disappointing last year due to flooding, due to some permitting issues, that we had to shut that project down last year' Salvatore said. 'But it's awesome to see the progress right now with the old bridge going away and the crews on site, currently cranes on site, and we're seeing lots of progress. That's going to be a huge addition to connect the trail networks of Sioux City and Dakota Dunes, South Dakota.' Completion of the Big Sioux Pedestrian Bridge is currently set for Sept. 10.
