Weekend road closures focused on western suburbs

Look out for road closures on Highways 169 and 212 in the western suburbs this weekend.

Highway 169: Plymouth to Maple Grove
The northbound lanes of Highway 169 will be closed from Plymouth to Maple Grove for the next four weekends. Crews will be resurfacing the road between Highway 55 in the south to Interstate 94 and 694 in the north. The road should reopen by rush hour on Monday each week.

Highway 212 (eastbound): Eden Prairie
Also this weekend, eastbound Highway 212 between the Crosstown and Interstate 494 in Eden Prairie will close. That road is being resurfaced, as well, and should also reopen by rush hour on Monday.

Highway 10: Elk River
The Minnesota Department of Transportation also said that emergency sewer repairs are taking longer than expected in Elk River. That's closed the left lane of Highway 10, just east of Main Street, for the past several days. MnDOT hopes to have the road reopened by 4 p.m. Friday afternoon for rush hour and weekend traffic.
