Paving project begins on Cedar Avenue in Apple Valley

The paving of the outside shoulder of northbound Minnesota 77 begins today, so motorists should be prepared for congestion and delays, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

And they're redoing Highway13, so there is no alternate, either. Actually, 77 was the alternate to the backups on 13.

Now there's planning...

And, construction on 35E northbound (probably at 7th) is scheduled to resume on July 11. Guess it's back to 35W. What a mess!

The MnDOT has no clue. They need to hire some planners over there. Earlier this year they closed 35E ramp to 494 East and West, Lone Oak was closed so you couldn't get to Hwy 3, and the 110 exit backed up for over a mile because the ramp light turned red after letting 4 or 5 cars through. The MnDOT needs to plan better, and coordinate better.

Anyone know when the construction on Lake St. just before Hiawatha will end? I've been through there several times, but never see anyone working - just cones/signs, making Lake St. one lane.
