Rehabilitation Begins April 15

Roseville, Minn.— Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) crews will begin shoulder resurfacing and rehabilitation on Highway 169 between I-694 and I-494 at 9 a.m. on April 15, 2002.

Motorists may expect daytime shoulder closures and non-rush hour lane closures to both northbound and southbound Highway 169. Crews will work day and night hours.

The shoulders are being rehabilitated to accommodate bus-only lanes.
Mn/DOT expects this project to be completed in late June 2002.

Mn/DOT urges motorists always to drive with caution and reminds them to SLOW DOWN in the work zone and NEVER enter a roadway that has been blocked with barriers or cones. Please join us in a safety partnership.
