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 hosted a public meeting on May 21, 2024, to share information on the aesthetics portion of the Hwy 61 project. This meeting only talked about the visual quality portion of the project, such as possible colors, textures, lighting, greenery, plantings, signage and more for along the corridor. For those who were unable to attend, the presentation and display boards are below. Please reach out to us with any comments or preferences on visual aspects of the project.
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.
