In 2021-22, MnDOT conducted a corridor study along Hwy 61 through Two Harbors. We worked with the community to identify multiple improvement aspects of the corridor and presented the final corridor plan at the end of 2022. The project will be delivered over two construction years.
MnDOT is hosting a public meeting on Tuesday, May 21, at 5 p.m. in the public library, 320 Waterfront Dr., Two Harbors, to share information on the aesthetics portion of the Hwy 61 project. Please join us to hear what the visual quality committee has been up to and see renderings of possible colors, textures, lighting, greenery, plantings, signage and more for along the corridor.
The Utah DOT Traffic and Safety division produced an informational video on roundabouts. It showcases the benefits of roundabouts (especially the safety benefit) to a wide variety of audiences. Roundabouts are not the perfect solution at all intersections, however, in the right locations, roundabouts can be a very safe and efficient way to move not just motor vehicles but pedestrians and bicyclists, too.
