Project study to improve the intersection

Sherburne County is leading a planning and development study to improve the intersection of Hwy 10 and Co. Rd.11 in Becker Township. This intersection is a critical connection for commuters, freight, emergency responders, and regional travel. Today this intersection is often congested and has a history of frequent crashes due to heavy trafic and train crossings on the adjacent rail line.
