Southbound I-35 work near Hinckley deferred until 2025

MnDOT is deferring all southbound bridge, paving, and ramp work on I-35 near Hinckley until 2025.

According to a news release, all northbound work on I-35 will be completed by the end of October.

Motorists can expect single lane, head-to-head traffic until the work wraps up.

The project was already slated for two years, but MnDOT says more work will take place in 2025 than originally planned.

In 2025, the southbound Grindstone River bridge, Highway 48 on- and off-ramps, and rail bridge will be completed.
