ROCHESTER, Minn. – The public is invited to attend a public information meeting on Sept. 19 to learn more about a new roundabout at Hwy 63 and Olmsted Co. Rd. 112, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

The meeting will be held in person from 4 to 6 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 19 at the Cascade Township Hall at 2025 75th St. NE, Rochester, MN. Attendees will learn more about the project and what to expect during construction, which is scheduled to begin in 2025.

People unable to attend the meeting will be able to review the information on the MnDOT project website.

MnDOT along with Olmsted County will be constructing a roundabout at Hwy 63 and Co. Rd. 112, north of Rochester. This intersection has a history of crashes because of limited gaps in traffic to cross the intersection and increased traffic volume. This project will help reduce crash severity and improve driver safety by regulating traffic flow.

To learn more about the project, visit the MnDOT project website, where you can also sign up for project email updates.

Olmsted County and MnDOT invite and encourage participation by all. If you need an ASL, foreign language interpreter, or other reasonable accommodation, or need documents in an alternative format (such as braille or large print), please email your request to Janet Miller at [email protected] or call 651-366-4720.
