Iowa DOT closes Sioux City riverfront trail for emergency repairs after historic flooding.

The Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) is urging residents to avoid closed sections of the Sioux City riverfront trail due to ongoing emergency repairs after historic flooding. The DOT is performing an emergency repair project along I-29 to stabilize the riverbank using rock to fill in scour damage. The trail is closed with barricades and no trespassing signs, with violators facing a $10,000 fine and potential jail time. The DOT aims to have the bank stabilized by fall, with hopes of reopening the trail next year.
