Flood Control Minnesota River, Minnesota, Minnesota, Mankato-North Mankato-Le Hillier, Design Memorandum Number 8. Part I. Location Study and Draft Supplement II to the Final Environmental Impact Statement for Bridge Relocations. Chicago and Northwestern Transportation Company Bridges Over the Blue Earth River between Mankato and Le Hillier.
Abstract
The St. Paul District is constructing flood control works on the Minnesota and Blue Earth Rivers to protect developed portions of Mankato, North Mankato and Le Hillier lying in the floodplain from frequent flood damage. The two Chicago and North Western Transportation Company bridges over the Blue Earth River must be raised approximately eight feet. The three plans seriously considered would eliminate one bride used for only car storage and would relocate the main track downstream adjacent to the existing bridges. The tentatively selected plan 3B would provide for all car storage on two stub-end tracks east of the river adjacent to the Honeymead plant.
