Veterans Parkway Lane Closures Start On May 15

Starting Thursday, May 15, 2025, motorists should prepare for significant lane closures on Veterans Parkway between Arrowhead Parkway and 26th Street.

Crews will be conducting essential infrastructure maintenance, including concrete repairs, curb and gutter restoration, and joint resealing.

The outside lane and shoulder will be closed in both northbound and southbound directions, with traffic maintained on the inside lanes.

Throughout the project, closure locations will shift along the affected section of Veterans Parkway, but drivers can expect at least one lane to remain open in each direction at all times.

Access to businesses, residences, and side streets will be maintained throughout the construction period.

The Veterans Parkway project is scheduled for completion by late July 2025.

Another project will affect South Louise Avenue on Friday, May 16, 2025.

The outside southbound lane will be closed south of 69th Street to accommodate Xcel Energy utility work.

This closure is expected to be removed by Friday evening.
