Motorists and pedestrians in south Minneapolis will find a long-term closure on Lake Street beginning Friday. The street will be closed at Interstate 35W through November to allow Minnesota Department of Transportation crews to work in the median and on underground utilities.

The closure and detour (via 31st Street) is related to the $239 million Downtown to Crosstown construction project, rebuilding I-35W between downtown Minneapolis and 43rd Street and adding a new transit station at Lake Street.

For one day only — Saturday — drivers on I-35W will find lane closures in both directions in various locations between 46th Street in Minneapolis and Hwy. 13 in Burnsville.

Travelers will want to check the forecast this weekend, as Sunday could bring another round of winter weather to the metro area and other parts of Minnesota, according to the National Weather Service.
