I-94/Highway 75 Interchange Reconstruction Update
The Minnesota Department of Transportation has an update on the I-94/Highway 75 interchange in Moorhead.
The southwest ramp from eastbound I-94 to Highway 75 is set to reopen early this week. Once it opens, the persistent rush hour slow-downs on eastbound I-94 should ease. Traffic volumes are expected to increase again on Highway 75 (8th Street).
Right now, it appears the northwest ramp from Highway 75 to westbound I-94 will open within a few days after the southwest ramp opens.
Crews completed the concrete work on the west side ramps last week. This week they will complete shoulders, curbing and guard rail on the northwest ramp.
Finally, some of the Phase 4 work will begin this week. Phase 4 will run well into October. Key parts of the remaining work include:
- 24th Avenue signal work
- Center median removal and replacement on the north side of the intersection of Highway 75 (8th Street) and 24th Avenue
- Resurfacing of Highway 75 (8th Street) between roughly 22nd Avenue and 24th Avenue (including the 24th Avenue intersection) and between 30th Avenue and 35th Avenue
Intermittent lane closures will be required even after the ramps open.
