Open house for Highway 14 Eagle Lake Corridor Study on April 8

The public is invited to attend an open house on April 8 to learn about potential future improvements to Highway 14 in the Eagle Lake area. Project staff will be sharing concepts, and attendees will have the opportunity to share input on how these concepts meet their needs. The open house will be held in person from 5 to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 8 at the Eagle Lake American Legion, located at 100 N. 3rd St., Eagle Lake.

During the open house, a formal presentation will take place at 5:30 p.m. The project team will be available for questions and comments before and after the presentation. Those unable to attend the open house can review the project information and take an online survey at mndot.gov/d7/projects/hwy14eaglelakestudy/.

The Mankato/North Mankato Area Planning Organization (MAPO), MnDOT, and the local communities are studying the Hwy 14 corridor between Co. Rd. 12 and Hwy 60. Over the past year, the study team evaluated existing conditions and issues throughout the corridor and now have potential concepts to share with the community. Goals of the study are to develop a long-term vision, enhance safety, improve access, support growth, and meet user and community needs.
