A segment of Interstate 94 just west of the Minneapolis-St. Paul boundary will be closed in both directions this weekend.

The freeway will be closed between Huron Boulevard and Interstate 35W starting 9 p.m. Friday, June 13, through Monday morning, June 16, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation. Traffic will be detoured to Minnesota 36 via I-35W and I-35E.

Six ramps also will close 9 p.m. Friday through late August:

Northbound I-35W to eastbound I-94
South Sixth Street to eastbound I-94
Huron Boulevard to eastbound I-94
Eastbound I-94 to Huron Boulevard
Riverside Avenue to eastbound I-94
Cedar Avenue to eastbound I-94

On Monday, June 16, traffic on Cedar Avenue will be reduced to one lane in both directions under the I-94 bridges through August.

These closures are part of a project repairing five bridges, including the Mississippi River bridge, along I-94.
