The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board on Friday will open SE. Main Street between Hennepin and 3rd avenues to traffic, and starting Monday, motorists will be allowed on East River Road and Nokomis and Lake of the Isles parkways.

The roads have been closed to traffic to allow more room for bicyclists and pedestrians due to COVID-19. Bde Maka Ska, Cedar Lake, Lake Harriet and West River parkways will remain closed to traffic and open for pedestrians and bicycles.

Hwy. 13 through Lilydale and Mendota Heights remains closed through July 10 as MnDOT continues drainage and road repairs.

Motorists will find lane reductions on both directions of Interstate 694 at Rice Street in Shoreview from Friday night to Saturday morning. Starting Monday, the ramp from westbound I-694 to Rice Street will close until late summer as work on the 694/Rice Street Interchange continues.

Starting Saturday, Blue and Green Line trains will run more frequently. Trains will run every 15 minutes between 5 a.m. and 11:30 p.m. Metro Transit also is adding service on 16 bus routes.
