Boaters on the St. Croix River got some good news on Thursday.

Although the official Stillwater Lift Bridge summer lift schedule for marine traffic was scheduled to ended this week, lift-bridge operators plan to continue to staff the bridge for an additional week due to good weather.

Bridge tenders will be on duty from from 8 a.m. Friday to 4 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 22.

After Tuesday, the lift bridge will remain in the down position until next spring unless a lift is requested. Boaters must request a lift at least 24 hours in advance.

The Stillwater Lift Bridge lift schedule will resume in early April 2025.
