July 16 Ribbon Cutting Celebration

Come walk along Robert Street in Downtown Saint Paul and join the City of Saint Paul and Securian Financial for a special Ribbon Cutting event to celebrate the completion of the Robert Street Reconstruction project.

Thursday, July 16, 2026
12:30 p.m.
400 Robert Street N.

The ribbon cutting event is open to the public and will feature remarks from Saint Paul Mayor Kaohly Her, Council President Rebecca Noecker, and Alyssa Schlander, Securian Financial Director of Public Affairs. (This ribbon cutting is being held in coordination with Securian Financial’s Annual Employee Appreciation event.)

Area closures and restrictions in Downtown Saint Paul, July 13, 2026

Construction is happening throughout downtown. Plan accordingly and expect delays. Please follow all posted signs. Road and lane closures will change as construction continues.

Additional event and construction closures that may impact access to downtown Saint Paul:

I-35E and Shepard Road access:
- The shift of I-35E traffic onto a temporary embankment alongside the existing bridge over Shepard Rd. is complete. With the bypass active, the West 7th St. ramp to southbound I-35E is closed through fall as the bridge is demolished and reconstructed. Traffic is directed to follow West 7th St. to Lexington Pkwy. to the Shepard Rd. ramp to southbound I-35E, which is now open. See detour and road closed map.
- The bypass will maintain two lanes of traffic on northbound I-35E while reducing to one lane of traffic on southbound I-35E from West 7th St. to the Shepard Rd. ramp. Motorists may experience slower traffic and should use caution while traveling through the work zone.

Help protect the new Robert Street roads and sidewalks this winter!

Salt harms new concrete.
Try sand or grit instead.

Thank you for your collaboration during the Robert Street reconstruction project. We are excited to reopen the road and sidewalks again in late November.

To ensure long-lasting, durable concrete, please do not use salt or ice melt on newly poured sidewalks and roads this winter. Your participation is important to the quality and longevity of the concrete surfaces.

Why skip the salt?

New concrete is weakest during its first year.
Salt accelerates the freeze/thaw cycle that could result in chipping or cracking of the concrete.
Sand or grit (sold as chicken, poultry, or cherry stone grit) is a great alternative for increasing traction on icy surfaces.

Design Option B (2 vehicle lanes with a center turn lane) Selected for Robert Street

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the 3 design options for Robert Street based on the first phase of public engagement.

Based on public input, Design Option B was selected by the City.

Design Option B is 2 vehicle lanes with a center turn lane. The design features wider sidewalks, bumpouts at intersections, in-lane Bus Rapid Transit stations, left turn lanes for multimodal safety, retains on-street parking at key nodes, accommodates green infrastructure to improve water quality, and provides critical loading zones.

View the Concept Design Memo for details on how Design Option B was selected and examples of how a typical block on Robert Street will look.
