Major Road Closure on Territorial Road Planned as Construction Season Looms

A major alternative route for those avoiding Interstate 94 traffic is going to get a facelift in the next several weeks.

March 26, 2020 By Mike Schoemer

Crews have returned to work on the I-94 Maple Grove to Clearwater project. MnDOT is using this week to keep residents up-to-date on what you can expect throughout the work zones in the coming weeks. Please plan ahead and give yourself additional time to get to your destination.

Maple Grove to Rogers

  • Overnight lane closures on I-94 in both directions throughout April
  • Starting Mon, April 6, the four-way intersection at Fletcher Lane and Territorial Road in Rogers will convert to a 3-way temporary signal throughout construction on I-94. Access to northbound Fletcher Lane from the intersection will be closed.
    • The intersection will remain open during construction of the signal
  • Beginning Mon, April 6, the intersection of Territorial Rd. and Brockton Ln. in Rogers will be closed for the construction of a roundabout until Mon, May 4. Here is how traffic will be detoured during roundabout construction:
    • Detour for EB Territorial Rd. to NB Brockton Ln. N: North on Main St. then east on Industrial Blvd.
    • Detour for SB Brockton Ln.: East on Co. Rd. 81, south on Maple Grove Pkwy. then west on 97th Ave. N
    • Detour for NB Brockton Ln.: East on 97th Ave. N, north on Maple Grove Pkwy. then west on Co. Rd. 81

  • Beginning Wed, April 15, the Elm Creek Rest Area in Maple Grove will be closed  until Sun, Nov. 1 for site improvements.

Following guidance from state health officials and to prevent further spread of COVID-19, MnDOT crews will maintain social distancing practices while working.

More about this project from MnDOT

We are making improvements to a 39-mile stretch of I-94 between Maple Grove and Clearwater, which includes more travel lanes, rebuilt bridges, improved drainage and the resurfacing of deteriorating pavement. Additionally, a new interchange is being constructed on I-94 near the city of Dayton. The improvements will reduce congestion, improve safety, improve freight movement, enhance economic vitality and provide a smoother ride for users of I-94. Work will take place between 2019 and 2021.
