The Stone Arch Bridge in Downtown Minneapolis is closed overnight from June 30 to July 5, 10 PM to 6 AM. The bridge, originally built in 1883 for the Great Northern Railway, is a significant piece of Minneapolis's industrial history and a popular pedestrian and bicycle path today. The closures were implemented following reports of late-night crime, a measure taken to ensure public safety.
