RIDER ALERT

June 22, 2009

Roadwork to close I-394 ramp into downtown Minneapolis

An important entry point into downtown Minneapolis from the west will close for four weeks this summer. Beginning at 6 a.m. on Tuesday, June 23, the 12th Street exit ramp from I-394 to 12th Street North will be closed to all traffic. The ramp should reopen to traffic during the week of July 20. BlueXpress buses will use the Dunwoody exit.

Downtown street paving, originally scheduled for the week of June 8th, has been rescheduled for the week of June 17th. The construction work and lane closures will result in traffic delays for cars and buses alike. Please plan extra time for your commute.
