About this project
Construction on the new interchange began in July 2012, and is to be opened to traffic in November 2013.
The project is being constructed by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), in partnership with Stearns County and the cities of Sartell and St. Cloud.
The area around this intersection has been rapidly developed over the years. New healthcare facilities and retail businesses have increased the amount of traffic, which warranted the development of this project.
