A portion of Kellogg Boulevard in St. Paul will be closed three nights this week to allow work crews to erect beams for the new Lafayette Bridge.

Kellogg will be closed between Mounds Boulevard and Sibley Street, in both directions, from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. starting Wednesday night and ending Saturday morning.

Detours will be posted to assist drivers. Eastbound motorists can take Sibley north to E. 7th Street, then east on 7th to Mounds Boulevard and south to Kellogg.

Westbound motorists can take Mounds north to E. 7th Street, then west on 7th to Jackson Street and south to Kellogg.
