While skateboarders and BMX riders perform stunts and tricks at this weekend's X Games in downtown Minneapolis, drivers will have to exhibit agility of their own with the closure of portions of two of the most-used highways in the south metro.

The decaying Crosstown will get a much-needed repaving between I-35W and Hwy. 5, but the work comes with an ominous warning from the Minnesota Department of Transportation: city streets in southwest Minneapolis will be the only way to access to homes and businesses west of Hiawatha Avenue.

At the same time, Interstate 494 in Bloomington will be shut down from Hwy. 100 to Hwy. 212, meaning east-west drivers will have to hopschoch their way across town.

Dealing with downtown traffic might raise your adrenaline, too, as thousands pour in to watch the X Games at US Bank Stadium, Saturday's Aquatennial fireworks and a Luke Bryan concert at Target Field. Portions of 4th Street and Chicago Avenue are closed.

Look for crowds around Highland Fest, the Lowertown Blues & Funk Fest and Rondo Days celebrations in St. Paul.
