News Release

Roseville, Minn.— The Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) will reduce southbound I-35W to a single lane from Highway 36 in ROSEVILLE to Stinson Blvd. in MINNEAPOLIS at 8 p.m. Monday, Aug. 4.

This lane closure is necessary as crews plane the concrete they've repaired recently and is part of the larger I-35W barrier, guardrail and road surface rehab project begun on June 16 between the two points.

Weather permitting, the lane will re-open by 5 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 5.

The entire I-35W concrete repair and center barrier project from Stinson Blvd. to Highway 36 is scheduled for completion by Sept. 21, weather permitting. As a reminder, crews will suspend work on this project during the Minnesota State Fair, Aug. 21-Sept. 1.

Mn/DOT urges motorists always to drive with caution and reminds them to SLOW DOWN in work zones and NEVER enter a roadway that has been blocked with barriers or cones. For updated statewide traffic, construction and travel information visit www.511mn.org.
