WINNIPEG – The Assiniboine Riverwalk will be closed starting Monday for riverbank repairs from the train bridge near The Forks to the Manitoba Legislative Building.
The high speed of water travelling down the river during the 2011 flood damaged the riprap that protects the trail, the city said in a news release.
