A stretch of Interstate 35W between Burnsville and Bloomington will be closed in both directions beginning Friday night and opening up again on Monday morning, according to state department of transportation officials.
The closure will begin at 9 p.m. Friday between the I-35W/35E split in Burnsville and I-494 in Bloomington, MnDOT said. The freeway is slated to reopen by 6 a.m. Monday.
During that time, crews are going to take down the Burnsville Parkway and Minnesota 13 bridges over I-35W.
Detour signs will direct motorists to I-35E, Minnesota 77 and I-494.
In addition, MnDOT said several ramps will be closed in the construction area through the duration of the project. More information about the project and a full list of road and ramp closures can be found on the project webpage at mndot.gov/metro/projects/i35wburnsville.
Construction will also impact the southern portion of E-ZPass lanes, so that option won’t be available through the construction zone.
