Editor's Note: The following press release was issued today (Wednesday) by MnDOT's Metropolitan District office in Roseville:

Old Highway 10 (Ramsey County Road 76) in Arden Hills will close today (Thursday) beneath Interstate 694 as crews place bridge beams for the new westbound Interstate 694 bridge above it.

The road will be closed between 9 a.m. and will reopen to traffic by 
3 p.m.

Motorists should follow the signed detour on Old Highway 10 to reach their destinations.  There will be access to local roads on each side of the closure.

Once the bridge beams are in place, crews will continue working on the new westbound I-694 alignment and bridges as weather permits.

Work has continued throughout the winter on the new westbound I-694 bridges crossing Old Highway 10 and the future alignment of Highway 10
