According to the Minnesota Department of Transportation, portions of Interstate 94 near downtown St. Paul will be closed this weekend for concrete pavement restoration.
Starting at 9 p.m. Friday and running until 5 a.m. Monday, the westbound lanes will be blocked with a detour set up between Interstate 35E and Marion Street as contractors pour new concrete between 12th Street and John Ireland Boulevard.
In addition, as part of a two-year reconstruction that began last year, eastbound and westbound I-94 will be two lanes between the I35E and I-94 junction and Marion Street until early summer.
The project is scheduled to be finished in the fall.
