Open house to present information for Hwy 212 and Hwy 284/County Road 53 work
Project proposes a “3/4 intersection” to improve safety in 2012
ROSEVILLE, Minn. — Area residents, commuters and business owners are invited to an open house to present a proposed plan to convert the existing Hwy 212/Hwy 284/County Road 53 intersection in Cologne to a 3/4 intersection.
This ¾ intersection improvement retains all of the Hwy 212 turning movements and eliminates the higher risk crossings and left turns from Hwy 284/CR 53 to Hwy 212. Other improvements to Hwy 212 access are also included.
The intersection re-design is part of a safety improvement project partially funded by Department of Public Safety program that targets higher-risk intersections. The City of Cologne and Carver County are also project partners.
The open house will be held at Cologne Community Center, 1211 Village Parkway from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday, November 14. A formal presentation will begin at 6 p.m.
The current project design and other displays will be available for viewing throughout the open house, and attendees will be able to get questions answered directly from the project engineers, designers and other staff working on the project.
