ST. PAUL, Minn. - Motorists will encounter detours and increased congestion on metro area roadways starting at 10 p.m., Friday, July 31 when all lanes of northbound Interstate 35W, between Highway 13 and I-494, close for the weekend. All lanes will reopen by 5 a.m., Monday, August 3. The closure is needed as crews repair these I-35W lanes.

The detour route will be as follows:
• I-35E north to Highway 77; north to Highway 62; west to I-35W

All ramps on northbound I-35W between Highway 13 and I-494 will also be closed during this time, including:

The work is part of the ongoing reconstruction of I-35W from Burnsville to downtown Minneapolis that is funded by the Urban Partnership Agreement. The UPA projects will improve traffic flow by reducing congestion on I-35W, Highway 77/Cedar Avenue and in downtown Minneapolis using transit, road pricing, technology and telecommuting.
