St. Cloud, Minn. - The westbound ramp from Interstate 94 to Wright County Highway 18 in Monticello will close to traffic Sunday evening, May 9.

The ramp will close for approximately two weeks to allow crews to construct the new mainline concrete pavement for westbound I-94.

Traffic will follow a signed detour using the Highway 25 exit, north to Wright County Highway 75 and east to Wright County Highway 18. To view the detour map, visit the construction Web site at www.dot.state.mn.us/d3/construct.html

In mid-July, 2009, work began on this two-year $11.1 million I-94 bridge replacement and safety improvement. Interstate 94 will remain open to traffic for the duration of the project. The entire project is scheduled to be completed by early November, 2010.
