No stopping or parking on the St. Croix Crossing bridge.
Stopping to let off passengers or parking on the new St. Croix Crossing bridge is prohibited. Law enforcement officers from both Minnesota and Wisconsin will be present during July 4 activities to keep traffic flowing across the new bridge and on Minnesota Hwy 36, Hwy 95 and Wisconsin Hwy 64.
Maps of available parking and loop trail access in both states can be found on the Wisconsin project website on the “Full Overview” page, www.projects.511wi.gov/stcroixcrossing/full-project-overview/.
And please remember, stay out of any construction zones in either state.
Construction of the loop trail system in Wisconsin continues. The public is prohibited from entering these construction areas due to construction vehicles, uneven terrain, excavation and other unsafe conditions that pose a risk to anyone who does not belong in the work area.
In addition, those who are not working in the project area could be cited for trespassing. Your cooperation is appreciated to keep everyone safe during construction in both states.
