ROSEVILLE, Minn. – Crews will close northbound Highway 169 to traffic between County Road 59/Delaware Avenue in St. Lawrence Township and Creek Lane in Jordan from 10 p.m. Friday, Aug. 7 to 5 a.m. Monday, Aug. 10. The closure is necessary to complete storm sewer work, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

All construction activities and traffic impacts are weather dependent and subject to change. MnDOT urges motorists to always be attentive, drive with caution and slow down in work zones where workers are present.

MnDOT, in partnership with the city of Jordan and Scott County, is building a new interchange at Highway 169 and Highway 282/County Road 9 from spring 2025 through 2027. Construction will include two bridges, large drainage culverts, two roundabouts, a pedestrian tunnel, sidewalks, retaining walls and noise walls. The project will improve safety and traffic flow and create better connections for pedestrians and bicyclists.
