Construction? A meeting to talk about work on I-35

The public is invited to an open house Thursday, Feb. 1 in Faribault to learn more about this summer’s southbound Interstate 35 concrete overlay project, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.  Members of the MnDOT design team will be available to answer questions and gather input from 4p.m. to 6 p.m. in the first floor public meeting room in Faribault City Hall, 208 First Ave. N.W.

In July, a MnDOT contractor will pave approximately 4 miles of southbound I-35 from Rice County Road 9 to Highway 21 with an unbonded concrete overlay. Additionally, crews will repave the Highway 21 exit ramp, extend the deceleration lane off of southbound I-35 to Highway 21 and repair culverts on I-35.
