MnDOT closing I-94 eastbound in St. Paul this weekend
After closing Interstate 94 westbound last weekend in St. Paul, Minnesota Department of Transportation officials will close the eastbound stretch this coming weekend.
Drivers should expect delays and a detour on eastbound Interstate I-94 between Minnesota Highway 280 and Interstate 35E. I-94 will close in that stretch starting at 10 p.m. Friday. Eastbound I-94 ramps between Highway 280 and I-35E also will close then, MnDOT said in a statement Monday.
MnDOT says it's closing the highway so crews can pour the south side of the Highway 51/Snelling Avenue bridge deck spanning I-94. All eastbound lanes and ramps are expected to reopen by 5 a.m. Monday.
