I-35W Minnesota River bridge, Road bridge between Bloomington and Burnsville, United States
The I-35W Minnesota River Bridge spans 1,361 feet across the waterway with eight lanes accommodating both northbound and southbound traffic patterns.
The original structure, built in 1960 by the Minnesota Highway Department, replaced an older US 65 bridge that experienced frequent flooding issues.
The bridge serves as a central connecting point for Minneapolis suburbs, enabling daily interactions between communities on both sides of the Minnesota River.
Four regular lanes and dedicated MnPass High Occupancy Vehicle lanes in each direction facilitate efficient traffic flow during peak commuting hours.
The eastern side of the northbound span includes a dedicated path for pedestrians and cyclists to cross the Minnesota River.
