Roadwork along I-494 in the east metro might be the biggest headache on local roads this weekend. Overnight closures on I-35W in south Minneapolis from Friday night to Saturday morning and on I-94 in the east metro Sunday night to Monday morning will bring more inconvenience.

On the rails, maintenance on the Green Line means trains won't run between U.S. Bank Stadium and Stadium Village from 7 p.m. Friday to 3:30 a.m. Monday. Buses will fill in. Blue Line trains will run as normal.

Open Streets Minnehaha + Lake will put drivers on detour as Lake Street from Elliot Avenue to Minnehaha Avenue and Minnehaha from Lake Street to Minnehaha Parkway will be closed for a street party from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.

Traffic generating events include Twins games Friday through Sunday at Target Field in Minneapolis, Lumberjack Days in Stillwater, and the Lowertown Blues and Funk Fest Friday and Saturday in Mears Park and a Backstreet Boys concert Saturday at the Xcel Energy Center, both in downtown St. Paul.
