County Road 101 (Bushaway Road) in Minnetonka, Wayzata and Woodland update

News

On June 11 or 12, contractors will begin removing pavement on County Road 101 south of Gray’s Bay Marina to Sanctuary Drive. Marina users should follow posted detour signs from Minnetonka Avenue or County Road 101 to Maplewood Road and continue on Breezy Point Road to the Marina. This detour will be in place throughout the summer. 

Continued activities

• The contractor continues installation of watermain and storm sewers north of La Salle Street.
• Contractors continue to install retaining walls along the railroad corridor and causeway. This work can create noise and vibration.
• The contractor is installing sanitary and storm sewer, along with other utilities, at the intersection of Eastman Lane, McGinty Road, and Bushaway Road. The contractor is working to complete and open the bike trail at the same time McGinty Road and Eastman Lane open, prior to the July 4 holiday weekend. 
• Installation of a gas line continues along the east side of the causeway along with service connections on the south end of the project.
• The remainder of paved surface between the causeway and Locust Hills has been reclaimed. The gravel roadway will be in place for the summer. The suggested 20mph construction zone speed will help to assure a smoother road surface and minimize impact to vehicles.
