  We report on the radio brightening of the blazar TXS 0506+056 (at
$z=0.3365$), supporting its identification as source of the high-energy (HE)
neutrino IC-170922A by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. MOJAVE/VLBA data
indicate its radio brightness abruptly increasing since January 2016. When
decomposing the total radio flux density curve (January 2008 - July 2018)
provided by the Owens Valley Radio Observatory into eight Gaussian flares, the
peak time of the largest flare overlaps with the HE neutrino detection, while
the total flux density exhibits a threefold increase since January 2016. We
reveal the radio structure of TXS 0506+056 by analysing VLBI data from the
MOJAVE/VLBA Survey. The jet-components maintain quasi-stationary core
separations. The structure of the ridge line is indicative of a jet curve at
the region $0.5\div2$ mas ($2.5\div9.9$ pc projected) from the VLBI core. The
brightness temperature of the core and the pc-scale radio morphology support a
helical jet structure at small inclination angle ($<8.2^{\circ}$). The jet
pointing towards the Earth is key property facilitating multimessenger
observations (HE neutrinos, $\gamma$- and radio flares). The radio brightening
preceding the detection of a HE neutrino is similar to the one reported for the
blazar PKS 0723--008 and IceCube event ID5.
