The public is invited to attend a construction open house on Wednesday, April 17 from 3:30 to 5:00 pm at the New Ulm Municipal Airport, 1617 Hwy 14, to learn about the upcoming Hwy 14/Highland Ave. roundabout project in New Ulm in preparation for construction expected to begin in early May. There is no formal presentation planned, and attendees are welcome to arrive anytime.

Construction begins soon on this stretch of roadway near New Ulm.

Staff from MnDOT and the contractor will be present at the open house to provide more information about the project and answer questions.

The project includes constructing a single-lane roundabout at Hwy 14/Highland Ave, new sidewalk and trail to connect to existing locations, and lighting. Construction on the project is expected to begin in early May and continue until early July, weather permitting.  Traffic will be detoured during construction.
