During the middle of October, more bypasses were paved along the west end of the project, especially in the area along WB Interstate 694 from the west end of the commons to Rice Street. Roadway grading and construction of permanent pavement along EB Interstate 694 from the east junction of Interstates 694 and 35E to U.S. Highway 61 began in the middle part of October. Abutments of the two bridges carrying WB Interstate 694 traffic into the commons area was completed, and steel beams were erected and placed along the bridges. Bridge construction continued through November 2006, and one bypass of a bridge spanning from NB Interstate 35E to WB Interstate 694 prevented access to the Rice Street exit. This would be remedied through the construction of the Edgerton Street bypass that would be set up for use in 2007. The 2006 construction season came to a close with the completion of the NB Interstate 35E to WB Interstate 694 flyover bridge that carries U.S. Highway 10 traffic. 2007 Construction continued on bridges throughout the project in January and February 2007. In addition to bridge construction, the Department of Transportation installed new cameras along the project to allow users to view the progress of the project over the Internet. Bridge construction from the previous year was completed in March, and traffic changes were made to accommodate the construction of the new bridges. From this point on, the original bridges along Interstate 694 were beginning to be demolished for the replacement bridges to take their places. On the morning of April 2, the Labore Road bridge spanning Interstate 694 was closed to traffic. This bridge was demolished during the weekend of April 20–23, 2007. After the Labore Road bridge was demolished, a section of permanent pavement on NB Interstate 35E was completed from Interstate 694 to Ramsey County Road E. This required a temporary closure of the ramp from NB Interstate 35E to Ramsey County Road E, but was reopened in early June. Also taking place in June was the demolition of the bridge carrying WB Interstate 694 traffic towards SB Interstate 35E in the west end of the commons section. This was removed on the weekend of June 8–10. Bridge demolition continued on two bridges within the commons section. One included the demolition of the original bridge carrying traffic from SB Interstate 35E to EB Interstate 694. The other was
