Northfield / 85 Exchange upgrades?
#1
Some days when I am feeling sadistic, I will actually drive over the Northfield bridge. I always regret it and stay away for weeks.

I have noticed that there are no breaks in the ION tracks over the bridge and some serious curbing. Today I noticed the Northeast entrance/exit to the ramp has changed configuration. The curbs put in will no longer allow eastbound traffic to make a left hand turn and enter the expressway to travel north.

I hope the new reality I think I am seeing means that the interchange there is being upgraded to something closer to a full cloverleaf. I recall the initial plan was to shut down the expressway ramps for 18 months +. Kraus carpets seems awfully close and I don't know if there will be room on that side.

I have tried researching the plan for this intersection and I haven't been very successful. Apologies in advance if this has been mentioned elsewhere.

Does anyone have some insight on what the future for this location will look like?
