GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) - Two bridges connecting Grand Forks with East Grand Forks, Minn., are being closed as the Red River continues to rise.
The Point and Sorlie bridges are to close Thursday. The National Weather Service is predicting a river crest in the cities at between 47 and 49 feet early next week, which would make the approaches to the bridges impassable.
Motorists still will be able to cross the Kennedy Bridge. The Greenway along the river also is being closed to the public. The closure includes two city parks and a dog park.
