Vicksburg has closed Riverfront Park due to the danger of a landslide.

Citing safety concerns, South Alderman Alex Monsour indicated that the beginning of a landslide was discovered last week near the playground forcing the park’s closure.

The Cashman family donated the land for the park to Vicksburg and Warren County, half to the city and half to county, meaning that the two entities will need to work together to address the erosion.
