Fourth of July fireworks are part of Independence Day celebrations, and the noise complaints and safety issues they can generate lead to high call volumes at 911 call centers across the country. That’s why the City wants to make sure people stay safe during fireworks season and know what to do if they have fireworks related complaints.
Instead of calling 911 for Fourth of July noise reports, please . City staff will review the reports during normal business hours.
Visit the City website for:
- Fireworks safety tips.
- What’s legal, what’s not.
- When to call 911.
- How to make a noise report.
Over the weekend, I-94 entrance and exit ramps between I-35W and Huron Blvd. will be closed. Both directions of I-94 will close in the same area. Crews are doing a traffic shift from the eastbound lanes to the westbound lanes this weekend, so they’ll be able to continue their bridge repair work along eastbound I-94.
To avoid the closure, follow the posted detour of I-35W to Hwy 36 to I-35E to I-94.
By 5 a.m. on Monday, June 16, I-94 will reopen and be reduced to two lanes in each direction on the west side of the interstate through mid-August. Six ramps will remain closed through mid-August.
Plan ahead by checking 511, give yourself additional time to reach your destination, and remember to drive with care in work zones.
Find details on the Minnesota Department of Transportation website.
