Roseville, Minn.— Traffic will be restricted to a single lane until mid-June on northbound Interstate 494 between Rockford Road (County Road 9) and Bass Lake Road (County Road 10) beginning at 9 p.m. on Tuesday, June 1, for repairs and redecking of five bridges in Plymouth and Maple Grove. Four of the bridges carry north and southbound I-494 traffic over 49th Ave. and the Northern Canadian Pacific Railroad tracks.

The fifth bridge carries northbound I-494 over I-94 in the junction of I-494 and I-94/694 (Fish Lake Interchange).

In mid-June, work will start on the southbound lanes and continue through the end of June. For a two week period at the end of June, motorists will encounter single lane traffic on both sides of the interstate. Work on the northbound I-494 bridge in the Fish Lake Interchange will overlap with the southbound stage of the project.

Weather permitting, work will be completed before the July 4 holiday weekend.
