Travel Advisory Minneapolis Metro Transit will be conducting maintenance on light rail tracks on the East Bank of the Twin Cities Campus this weekend. Key closures include: Light rail trains will be running, but will not stop at the UofM dropoff site, STARTING at 7pm THURSDAY (July 11). So, you should be able to come to campus via light rail from the airport as long as you arrive BEFORE 7pm on Thursday (July 11). If you are flying in on Friday instead, you can take the blue line from airport to the US bank stadium, and then shuttle buses will be available there that will drop you off on campus: https://www.metrotransit.org/buses-will-replace-metro-blue-and-green-line-trains-july-12-15 You should be able to take the light rail back to the airport on Sunday, but that will involve a shuttle bus that will pick you up within 2 blocks from the Graduate Hotel, and drop you off about 1 block from the blue line (which goes to the airport). We will provide more detailed information regarding the shuttle back to the airport at the SABER meeting. Note: The top-level of the Washington Avenue Bridge remains open to non-motorized traffic.
