Over the past 4-6 weeks we have seen an uptick in reports of wrong way drivers on 8 Street near Cloquet Avenue. 8 Street is a one-way that runs northbound. As we understand the violators are going southbound on 8 Street from Cloquet Avenue. 8th Street in this corridor is narrow and with parking on both sides it is difficult for traffic to pass both directions.
We will be be doing directed patrols in this area. We'd ask for the community's support in following traffic laws. Both efforts will reduce the chances of a crash occurring in this corridor.
