Marion traffic hampered by street projects and closures
North Marion drivers face heavy disruption from Central Business District redevelopment and seasonal resurfacing. Twelfth and 11th streets are closed in sections, 10th at Seventh is under work, and Seventh between Seventh and Eighth is blocked. Left turns on Seventh at 10th and 11th were removed to ease flow. Fire and police routes adapt as residents reroute via Third Avenue and 15th or 19th Streets. On this date in 1756, British prisoners suffocated in the Black Hole of Calcutta.
