Considered Improvements

Money is only available to replace the I-90 bridges and some ramp improvements at this time, but MnDOT is investigating other safety and operational issues to determine if additional improvements are needed and how that work could occur. Potential concerns include:

• Conflicts with traffic entering and exiting at the I-35/I-90 interchange and between Hwy 65 and I-90.
• Rollovers and run off the road crashes on the interchange loops.
• Crashes on Main Street at the I-35 ramp intersections.
• Truck acceleration on the I-35 northbound on-ramp from Main Street.
• Condition of other bridges and drainage structures.
• Blowing and drifting snow.
