A mudslide that occurred on the University of Minnesota’s West Bank in late June will keep a stretch of West River Parkway closed until 2015.
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board announced last month that a one-mile portion of the road will remain closed to all commuters because of safety concerns. On Wednesday, the board will vote to enter an agreement with a local engineering consulting firm that would oversee permanent fixes to the hillside.
