Sections of Highway 169 to close in New Hope, Plymouth overnight this week
[MGN]
Parts of Highway 169 will close overnight this week so crews can begin work for the County Road 9 bridge that crosses the highway.
MnDOT said the closures will last from 10 p.m. until 5 a.m. the following day, starting on Tuesday and ending Saturday morning.
The overnight closings will begin in the southbound lanes between I-94 and 36th Avenue and are expected to be finished by Thursday morning.
Starting Thursday night, the northbound lanes of Highway 169 will have overnight closures between I-394 and 49th Avenue until Saturday morning.
Drivers should use I-94, I-494 and I-394 as detour routes.
MnDOT is advising people to slow down in work zones and use caution where crews are present.
