Fans of the Maroon and Gold headed to campus this weekend for athletic events should plan accordingly and allow extra time. The Minnesota Department of Transportation announced that it will shut down both directions of Interstate 35W, between Highway 62 (Crosstown) and I-94.
The closure, which will begin Friday night at 10 p.m., and lasts through Monday morning, 5 a.m., is part of an ongoing road construction project on the highway.
Fans are encouraged to seek alternate routes or utilize Metro Transit light rail and buses to reach campus. The Stadium Village light rail stop is located adjacent to TCF Bank Stadium, along with the East Bank station which are both an easy walk to many campus venues.
The Gophers host several events this upcoming weekend. Volleyball begins weekend action against Indiana at 7 p.m., while women's basketball opens its season at 8 p.m., against New Hampshire. Saturday is scheduled to be another busy day on campus as the Gopher Football team hosts Purdue at 2:30 p.m., while Gopher Volleyball also hosts the Boilermakers at 7:30 p.m.
