SUPERIOR — The Blatnik Bridge served as the backdrop as local, state and federal officials called on President Joe Biden to provide funding for the bridge's replacement. U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers and Wisconsin Department of Transportation Secretary Craig Thompson joined local officials to talk about the need to replace the bridge, which first opened between Duluth and Superior in 1961. 'Just last year, we welcomed President Biden to highlight how the Blatnik Bridge could benefit from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law,' Baldwin said.
