The City of Great Falls has released new information about the road closure, and a related closure of a small section of the River's Edge Trail.
A news release says that the closures are due to a storm drainage utility break.
The section of the trail that is closed is highlighted in the image provided by the city:
The Montana Department of Transportation, Cascade County, and the City of Great Falls are working to address and repair the affected area.
At this point, there is no word on a timeline for repairs.
(1st REPORT, SEPTEMBER 25) A section of North River Road between 10th Street NE and 15th Street NE has been closed to traffic temporarily.
Cascade County Public Works announced the closure in a news release this week; there is no word on how long the closure will last, nor the reason.
Traffic will be detoured, so please be aware of work signs, detours, and road closures.
River Road runs along the north side of the Missouri River and into Black Eagle, and should not be confused with River Drive, which runs along the south side of the river.
We will update you if we get more information.
