About this project
This 43-year-old bridge over the Minnesota River was in need of major repairs to continue to safely transport people and goods. We repaired the pavement and replaced parts of the I-494 bridge over the Minnesota River, reconstructed the regional trail, replaced lighting and improved drainage.
