I-394 construction projects
In addition to this work, motorists traveling in the west metro also will encounter ongoing and upcoming construction projects. Travelers are encouraged to stay informed by visiting the project webpages and signing up for email updates:

I-394 between Hwy 100 and downtown Minneapolis — through November: Currently through mid-summer, the main westbound I-394 lanes are closed, with westbound traffic using the E-ZPass lanes. From mid-summer through November, the eastbound I-394 lanes will be closed, with eastbound traffic using the E-ZPass lanes. Crews are repairing and restoring more than 30 bridges across I-94 and I-394. mndot.gov/metro/projects/i94-i394minneapolis/.
I-394 in St. Louis Park — through September: This project will add auxiliary lanes on I-394 — this type of lane gives motorists additional space and time to safely accelerate/decelerate to enter and exit I-394. As a result of this work, these closures will occur through September: the ramp from Louisiana Avenue to eastbound I-394; the ramp from eastbound I-394 to Xenia Avenue/Park Place and westbound Wayzata Boulevard between Louisiana Avenue and Zarthan Avenue. mndot.gov/metro/projects/i394stlouispark/
Hwy 12 between Wayzata and Minnetonka — begins April 20 through November. This major pavement preservation project will result in lane reductions and ramp closures between Shoreline Drive (County Road 15) in Wayzata to I-494 in Minnetonka. The work will include full road reconstruction and pavement repairs, plus important drainage improvements, which will support the overall maintenance and lifespan of the roadway. mndot.gov/metro/projects/hwy12wayzata-minnetonka/
