I-94 Nighttime Lane Restrictions Begin Next Week

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- If you're commuting around St. Paul in the next few weeks, you might see a longer drive home.

MnDOT says Interstate 94 will be under lane restrictions in both directions from 6 p.m. to 5 a.m. between Lexington Parkway to Marion Street. Officials say the MacKubin Street and Grotto Street bridge decks will be undergoing renovation during those time periods from Monday to Friday over the next two weeks.

A MnDOT spokesperson said there will be two lanes available in each direction during the restriction.

Those pedestrian and bike bridges will close Monday and won't reopen until November. Officials are advising pedestrians to use the Dale Street bridge as a detour.
