Improve access, safety
MnDOT will improve access and safety on Hwy 10 in Randall, which includes two proposed Reduced Conflict Intersections (RCI) at Morrison Co. Rd. 14 and Hwy 115 in 2024.
About this project
RCIs, also known as J-turns or R-cuts, are intersections that decrease fatalities and injuries caused by broadside crashes on four-lane divided highways. Drivers always make a right turn, followed by a U-turn. They don’t need to wait for a gap in both directions to cross. This reduces potential conflict points and increases motorist safety.
Future Hwy 10 RCI's to be installed at the intersections of Morrison Co. Rd. 14 and Hwy 115 in Randall. The illustration below shows how the motorist would safely access both directions of Hwy 10 or continue, go across. The RCI allows motorists to focus on two lanes of traffic in one direction instead of all lanes in both directions.

Summary of work
- Reconstruct the Hwy 10 access at Morrison Co. Rd. 14 with a RCI design
- Close the Hwy 10 median access at Co. Rd. 104 and Willow Ln.
- Note: Motorists would turn right and continue on to the next median access and make a U-turn.
- Reconstruct the Hwy 10 access at Hwy 115 and 80th Ave. with RCI design
