Open House Scheduled for 10th and 11th Street Viaduct Study

The City of Sioux Falls and the South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT), in conjunction with the South Eastern Council of Governments (SECOG)/Sioux Falls Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), will hold a public open house to introduce the public to the 10th and 11th Street Viaduct Major Investment Study and gather public input to inform conceptual design options for replacing the viaduct structures.  

The open house will be held on Tuesday, December 3, 2024, from 5 to 7 p.m., Central time at the Monick Yards, located at 605 East Eighth Street, Sioux Falls, SD.  

The event will consist of a recorded presentation and interactive activities. The recorded presentation will be shown multiple times during the open house. The goal of this public meeting open house is to gather input on viaduct-related needs and issues to be addressed as part of this study. This information will help the study team develop and evaluate preliminary viaduct replacement concepts to be presented later in the study.
