Moorhead, MN – Starting Friday, August 15, weather permitting, motorists will encounter additional traffic changes in both directions on Interstate 94 west of Highway 336 in Moorhead, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

Lane closures in both directions are planned for this Friday and overnight lane closure and full closure of a portion of I-94 is scheduled for August 18 and August 19, weather permitting. The closures are required for the installation of new overhead message boards.

What drivers can expect:

  • August 15, daytime: Right lane closure in both directions until 5 p.m., starting at 6 a.m. in the eastbound lanes and 8 a.m. in the westbound lanes.
  • August 18, nighttime: Lane closure on westbound I-94, right lane closed from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m.
  • August 19-20, nighttime closure and detour: Overnight closure of I-94 in both directions from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. Detour to follow 20th Street South, 40th Avenue South and 34th Street South.

During the overnight closure and detour on August 19-20, because of its location within the work area, the Moorhead Travel Information Center will close to all travelers. The rest area will reopen when the roadway reopens.
