We have seen very recent reports of a train derailment at Highway 12 at 190th St. near Knapp. Scanner reports indicate that 20-30 cars are off the tracks. There were no injuries from the accident and no hazardous leaks have happened, but highway 12 is closed at the accident. 300 gallons of diesel fuel ran out from the train into a field, and that is being cleaned up.

The Farwell/Gibson parking ramp in Eau Claire will be closed temporarily for repairs from January 8 - January 13. According to the City Administrator's Office:

Repairs on the Farwell/Gibson parking ramp at 202 S. Farwell Street are nearly complete.  Work at the entrance/exit will require that the ramp be closed - this closure is scheduled to take place from Wednesday, January 8 through Monday, January 13, 2020.
