Muscatine to repair Weed Park Lagoons

The Weed Park Lagoon Project is set to begin during the week of June 25, according to a press release. This comes after the approval of the contract and bond by Muscatine City Council on Thursday, June 20.

The project will involve renovating the two lagoons and repairing or replacing some of the existing amenities. This will include bank stabilization, observation deck replacement, lagoon dredging, trail development, bend pods, duck island stabilization, repairing lagoon leaks and addressing the drainage flow into the lagoons.

The lower loop will remain open to traffic throughout the project, but there may be temporary closures as equipment is moved in and around the lagoons. Drivers are urged to use caution and allow for plenty of time when driving around the lower loop.
