We are replacing the Nicollet Ave. bridge that crosses over I-94 near downtown Minneapolis. Originally built in 1966, the bridge needs to be replaced to continue to serve pedestrians and motorists that use the bridge and I-94.
Summary of work
Replace the old bridge with a new bridge
Add accessible sidewalk ramps
Add new crosswalks on north and south sides of bridge
Traffic impacts
All traffic impacts are tentative and weather dependent.
Upcoming
Information about upcoming traffic impacts will be posted as details become available. Motorists can expect one full weekend closure of I-94 to demolish the bridge, two overnight directional closures to set beams, and one full closure of I-94 overnight to pour the bridge deck. The Nicollet Ave. bridge will be fully closed to pedestrians and traffic between E. 16th St. and E. 18th St. for the duration of the project.
