MINOT – Within the MI-7-Roosevelt Park and Zoo phase of the Mouse River
Enhanced Flood Protection Project (MREFPP) the process of tree removal, cleanup of
debris, and site restoration occurring for the past few weeks.
This preconstruction process involved both MI-6 Downtown and MI-7 Roosevelt Park
and Zoo from Central Avenue through Roosevelt Park to Burdick Expressway by the
Roosevelt Park Zoo parking lot.
The contractors have completed this work, on Wednesday, March 27th Roosevelt Park
will reopen and can allow citizens back in the park for walking and other activities.
The availability of some areas will depend on weather and ground conditions, but we
will keep the public updated on changes as they occur. Please note tree stumps are
still present within the park, so please be careful when walking throughout the park
on sidewalks and pathways. These stumps will be removed in the next portion of
construction within Phase MI-7. We appreciate your cooperation to ensure the safety
of the public.
