Both bridges will be demolished the weekend of <br />June 8, 2012, beginning on Friday night, June 8th <br />through early Monday morning, June 11th. Both <br />directions of I-35W will close between I-694 and the <br />north junction of Hwy 10. During the closure, traffic will <br />detour on Hwy 10, Hwy 610, Hwy 252 and I-694. <br /> <br />During reconstruction of the bridges, access will be <br />maintained from westbound Hwy 10 to northbound <br />I-35W. I-35W motorists may encounter occasional lane <br />closures and some short-term, non-rush hour full <br />closures for bridge work. <br /> <br />MnDOT is hosting an open house on Wednesday, <br />May 30th from 3:00pm to 6:00pm at the Mounds View <br />Community Center located at 5394 Edgewood Drive in <br />Mounds View.
