The Lowry Avenue Bridge is an important transportation corridor and neighborhood
connection in Minneapolis. Hennepin County started the design process for bridge
replacement in 2007. The bridge was closed in 2008 due to known structural issues
and demolished in June 2009.
Phase I of the replacement project - the bridge over the Mississippi River - is
currently underway. Phase II of the replacement project – construction over the
Canadian Pacific Railroad – commenced in April 2011.

for more information and photographs of construction.
The entire Lowry Avenue Bridge Replacement Project - including Phase I and Phase
II, from Marshall St. NE to 2nd St. N – is scheduled for completion in Summer 2012.
