If you're heading south on Highway 13 next week, the Minnesota Department of Transportation says to be prepared for delays. 

Traffic will be reduced to a single lane between Yankee Doodle Road and Silver Bell Road overnight both Aug. 5 and 6.

The lanes are scheduled to close at 8 p.m. and reopen by 5 a.m.

The intersections of Highway 13 and Yankee Doodle and Highway 13 and Silver Bell Road may also close.

The construction is part of MnDOT’s reconstruction of Highway 13 from Burnsville to West St. Paul.

More information is available on the project website.
