12th Avenue North bridge replacement design

Fargo

Summary

The bridge floods at 27-foot river stage and has gone underwater eight times in 15 years. The Commission picked the cheaper Build-Off alignment ($26-29M) and a mini roundabout at Elm Street, but construction money isn't secured — the city will pursue federal grants and any funding returns to the Commission.
