14th Street work update

After three months of work on 14th Street in Cloquet, city officials provided an update on the project on the city’s website, at cloquetmn.gov.

Work on the roundabout curb, pavement and truck apron is complete, with sidewalk, lighting, pavement markings and signage set to be completed before school by Sept. 3. The roundabout will be open for east/west traffic by Sept. 3, as will Doddridge Avenue. However, work on 14th Street will continue in September and October.

Storm sewer, sanitary sewer and water main installation is complete from Washington to Doddridge Avenue, with work between Doddridge and Prospect expected to be completed in September or October. When it is finished, 14th Street will be repaved from Tall Pine Lane to Sahlman Avenue, with sidewalks or multipurpose trails included.
