Nighttime Highway 100 Closures Scheduled Sept. 2-5 Between Highway 62 and Interstate 394
Northbound lanes closed overnight Sept. 2 and Sept. 3; Southbound lanes closed overnight Sept. 4 and Sept. 5
Edina, Minn., Aug. 27, 2025 – Minnesota Highway 100 will close overnight on four nights, Sept. 2-5, between Minnesota Highway 62 and Interstate Highway 394. Northbound lanes will close
Sept. 2 and 3, followed by southbound lanes Sept. 4 and 5. The nighttime closures will allow crews to safely lift beams into place for a new bridge on Vernon Avenue over Highway 100
in Edina, part of the Vernon Avenue & Highway 100 Interchange project. Lanes will reopen during daytime hours between closures.
Northbound Highway 100 Closures:
10 p.m. Sept. 2 to 5 a.m. Sept. 3
10 p.m. Sept. 3 to 5 a.m. Sept. 4
Southbound Highway 100 Closures:
10 p.m. Sept. 4 to 5 a.m. Sept. 5
10 p.m. Sept. 5 to 5 a.m. Sept. 6
Detour: During the overnight closures, detours for both directions will utilize Highway 62, U.S. Highway 169 and Interstate 394. In addition, suggested local access routes will be in
place. Maps for the nighttime Highway 100 closures will be added soon at BetterTogetherEdina.org/vernon-hwy100.
The $28.2 million Vernon Avenue & Highway 100 Interchange project is a joint effort between the City of Edina, Hennepin County and the Minnesota Department of Transportation and includes
replacing two bridges on Vernon Avenue, one over the Canadian Pacific Kansas City railroad and the second over Highway 100. The project will also improve nearby intersections and eliminate
redundant Highway 100 access ramps in favor of a standard tight diamond interchange.
The new bridge over Highway 100 will create space for these improvements:
10-foot-wide sidewalks and ADA-compliant pedestrian ramps
Pedestrian refuge islands
New dual left-turn lanes in both east and west directions
New traffic signals with ADA-compliant audible crossings
Stay Informed
The City of Edina is committed to minimizing disruptions by keeping residents, businesses and the traveling public informed throughout construction. Press releases and social
media posts will be shared when there are major traffic changes.
