Road Construction Update: Hamline Avenue Near County Road F

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

The intersection of Hamline Avenue and Ramsey County Road F in Arden Hills reopened to traffic as scheduled on Wednesday afternoon.

Hamline Avenue remains closed south of County Road F until the end of November. Traffic is currently un-restricted but once Hamline Avenue reopens, the intersection will operate as a three-way stop.

The intersection was closed throughout October to allow construction crews to rebuild the intersection located just north of Interstate 694. The work also included installation of underground utilities needed for a signal system being installed next April.

Major reconstruction at the interchange of Interstate 694 and Highway 10 at Snelling Avenue and Hamline Avenue in Arden Hills began last fall. The two-year project includes reconstruction of the surrounding roadways between I-35W and Victoria Street along with the Island Lake bridges east of the interchange between Lexington Avenue and Victoria Street.

In addition to rebuilding the surrounding highways, the project will rebuild bridges in the corridor and will improve safety and mobility.
