MNDoT announced plans for bridge construction on I-94 westbound between Radio Drive and I-494 and I-694. Lanes will be closed on the evening of Jan. 23.

From 8-9 p.m. the left lane heading west will be closed and from 9-10 p.m. two left lanes will be closed.

Also that evening, the weekend closure of I-94 is scheduled to begin. Beginning at 8 p.m. on Friday, there will be single lane closures in both directions of the interstate. The westbound lanes of the interstate will then fully close at 10 p.m. between Highway 61/Mounds Blvd. and Highway 52/Lafayette Freeway, followed by a full closure of the eastbound interstate at 11 p.m. from Highway 52/Lafayette Freeway to Highway 61.

Access from the interstate to local streets, including Etna St. and Wilson Ave. will be prohibited and all westbound I-94 traffic will be routed southbound on Highway 61. The exits to Burns Avenue also will be closed to reduce cut-through traffic on local streets.

There also will be no access to eastbound I-94 from I-35E or from cross streets in the closure area. Westbound I-94 traffic will be able to exit I-94 at Highway 61/Mounds Boulevard. Eastbound I-94 motorists will be able to exit I-94 at 7th Street and Highway 52/Lafayette Freeway. Mounds Boulevard local traffic will be able to enter eastbound and westbound I-94.

Winter road construction is subject to rescheduling due to weather related challenges.
