The Minnesota Department of Transportation has extended the closures of I-35 as additional concrete work needs to occur before ramps can be reopened. The extent of the work needed was greater than originally planned and is taking longer than expected. Crews continue to work in the area, and lanes will be reopened as soon as possible.
MnDOT currently expects ramps to reopen by Oct. 11.
The following ramps to and from I-35 remain closed:
. I-35 northbound off-ramp to Lake Avenue bridge
. I-35 southbound off-ramp to Lake Avenue bridge
. I-35 southbound on-ramp from Lake Avenue bridge
. I-35 northbound on-ramp from Lake Avenue bridge
. I-35 northbound on-ramp from Michigan Street
The ramps will reopen as soon as possible, and detour signage will be posted. Lanes will continue to be closed on I-35 northbound and southbound between 5th Avenue West and 13th Avenue East (north termini of tunnels).
This project is part of a two-year project to repair concrete pavement and bridges in the Duluth section of I-35.
