Road construction underway in the area of 3M Arena at Mariucci
This message is being sent to families in our senior class to encourage planning ahead for travel to the 3M at Mariucci Arena for graduation as Hennepin County is coordinating a road reconstruction project on University Avenue, the roadway just to the north of the arena. The roadway has been reduced to two lanes from Oak Street (near Huntington Bank Stadium) to I-35W. Parking areas near the arena remain available. Thank you for your attention to this message.
Location:
3M Arena at Mariucci (University of Minnesota)
1901 4th St SE
