If you work downtown Duluth and park in the East Superior Ramp, you need to read this blog. The construction is slated to begin Monday, October 8 and last a little over a week for the repair, then another week for cleaning. It will still be open, but there won't be as many spaces available.

If traffic camera go in every major city, do you think that would be fair? Well, there are two schools of thought. 1...you shouldn't be speeding or going through red lights anyway, if you were driving according to the law, you would never get a ticket. 2....there's that part of you that feels like you are getting away with something when no one is around. There are rumours this would be a way for states to raise their traffic revenue and avoid shutdowns....eh hem...Minnesota...with out raising taxes.
