Update on the BNSF Bridge Project Navigation

The North Dakota Game and Fish Department and the North Dakota Department of Water Resources announce a temporary navigation change through the BNSF railroad bridge project on the Missouri River near Bismarck-Mandan.   

The navigation channel through the construction zone will be reduced and partially restricted April 21 and 23 and April 28 and 30 due to movement and installation of 100-foot steel beams.

This restriction is anticipated to occur from 7:30 a.m. to noon each of those days. The project manager for the bridge construction will have two boats on site to assist boaters through the area when navigation though the marked channel is not cleared to be used.
