Via a July 17 City of Minneapolis e-newsletter:
Beginning at 7 p.m. tonight, Friday, July 17, the intersection of Sixth Street South and Portland Avenue will be closed for utility work. This closure will be in place until 5 a.m. Monday, July 20 so the energy company NRG can install chilled water lines that will supply the new stadium.
Southbound Portland Avenue traffic will be detoured west onto Third Street, then south on Fourth Avenue and then east onto Eighth Street. Eastbound traffic on Sixth Street will be detoured south onto Fourth Avenue, then east onto Eighth Street and then north onto Park Avenue.
A number of construction projects will affect traffic in Downtown this season. To help drivers know about all of the current and upcoming work, the City has mapped these projects. Links to the maps are available at www.minneapolismn.gov/publicworks/traffic.
