Those who attended Friday's mega Christian music concert at U.S. Bank Stadium may have been shouting "Hallelujahs," but weekend drivers likely won't be.

In addition to the third straight weekend closure of Interstate 94 in downtown Minneapolis, the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) will demolish the flyover bridge from northbound Interstate 35W to westbound Interstate 94.

While the bridge is taken down, access to the downtown exits of 5th Avenue and Grant Street will be closed. Outbound exits from downtown to southbound I-35W at 12th Street and 4th Avenue also will be closed. Once the bridge is gone, it will take three years to rebuild, so the 24,000 motorists who use it each day will have to adapt just like last summer when the same ramp was closed for 70 days while MnDOT redid the Lowry Hill tunnel.

Expect extra traffic around Target Field, where the Twins host the rival Milwaukee Brewers Friday through Sunday, and Target Center, where the Lynx open their season Sunday at 4 p.m. The same will be true in northeast Minneapolis, home of the annual Art-A-Whirl open studio tour.
