Portage Lift Bridge Work Explained

The Portage Lake Lift Bridge is scheduled to be closed Saturday night into Sunday morning for maintenance.  But what kind of work is being done

Houghton County Emergency Measures Coordinator Jack Dueweke explains

The closure will begin at 9pm Saturday and is expected to reopen at 7am Sunday.

If you find yourself unable to get back across once the closure has begun…waiting rooms have been arranged with the Magnuson Hotel Franklin Square Inn in Houghton and Lakeview Manor in Hancock where you can stay warm until the bridge reopens.

Dueweke spoke with Sam Ali on Copper Country Today. You can hear the entire interview by visiting www.keweenawreport.com.
