Gunflint trail and bridge replacement project

This $1,250,000 Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration under the Federal Lands Access Program (CFDA 20.224) will fund the Gunflint Trail and Bridge Replacement Project in Minnesota. The project entails road widening, milling and overlaying, pavement markings, signage, and the replacement of Bridge 95684 with a new Bridge 16533 over the Little Devil Track River along County State-Aid Highway 12 from 5th Avenue West in Grand Marais to County State-Aid Highway 8 (Devil Track Road). The Minnesota Department of Transportation will manage the project as the primary grantee, and the County of Cook will serve as a sub-grantee to support the bridge replacement component. This federal grant award, with a performance period starting on September 12, 2024, aims to improve transportation infrastructure access and connectivity within the region.
