Street closures underway as Manhattan crews tackle sinkhole, Walters Drive project

0
By Brandon Peoples on August 25, 2025 Local News, Manhattan

Manhattan Public Works crews are continuing to repair a sinkhole that developed earlier this month in the downtown area.

As a result, 3rd Street remains closed from Poyntz Ave. to Humboldt Street. City officials had hoped to finish repairs last week, but have extended the closure until Friday, due to a larger score of necessary work on stormwater pipes than originally anticipated. Parking lot and alley access remains from Humboldt south.

Elsewhere, city officials are beginning the next phase of a project on Walters Drive, which involves the closure of the Kirkwood Drive intersection for at least the next six weeks.
