As you know, the federal TIGER Grant project announcements came out on February 17 and the St. Croix River Bridge Project was not one of the selected projects. Without the TIGER funds we are now back on the original schedule with river bridge construction scheduled to begin in 2013. r The Load Test Project is still important to perform this spring. Data gathered from the testing remains essential for the bridge design process and will reduce overall project costs by millions of dollars as we discussed at the January 2e Council presentation. The Load Test project is ready to move forward and all construction concerns have been addressed for the protection of the St. Croix River. Therefore, Mn /DOT reiterates our request that the city withdraw its hearing demand from the DNR and allow Mn /DOT's Load Test project and our contractor Bolander to move forward without delay. Sincerely, Adam Josephson East Area Manager MNDOT Metro District An Eq O pportunity Employer
