Revere Lane in Maple Grove scheduled to open July 2
As construction of the new Highway 610 segment continues, Jefferson Highway will close early Tuesday, July 6 and motorists will need to follow a detour. Jefferson Highway will be closed from just north of 97th Place to just south of the new Highway 610 through November 2010 as crews construct a new bridge to carry traffic over new Highway 610 in Maple Grove.
Posted Detour: Southbound: Go east on 109th Avenue to Highway 169; south to 93rd Avenue/County Road 30 and west to Jefferson Highway
Northbound: Go east on 93rd Avenue/County Road 30 to Highway 169; north to 109th Avenue and west to Jefferson Highway
In addition, Revere Lane in Maple Grove is scheduled to open on Friday, July 2. The road has been closed since November 2009 for construction of a new bridge to carry traffic over new Highway 610.
The new Highway 610 alignment includes nearly three miles of four-lane highway from Highway 169 in Brooklyn Park to County Road 81 in Maple Grove. The project includes two interchanges, three overpasses, a pedestrian bridge and noisewalls. Construction is scheduled to be complete in July 2011.
