DULUTH, MN (KDAL) – Work on the 27th Avenue West bridge over I-35 will result in some ramp and freeway closures on Wednesday and Thursday nights.
The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) says the entrance ramp from 27th Avenue West to southbound I-35 will close between 8 p-m and 11 p-m on Wednesday.
That will allow contractors to move a crane from the west end of the bridge to the median.
Motorists are being asked to use the 40th Avenue West ramp to access southbound I-35 during that time.
On Thursday night, both north and southbound lanes of I-35 at 27th Avenue West will close at 8 p-m.
Traffic will be routed up and back down the ramps.
The closure is needed for the delivery and placement of concrete for the bridge deck and I-35 is expected to re-open by 5 a-m on Friday.
Motorists are urged to use extra caution in and around the work area.
