Hwy 52 -- Zumbrota to Cannon Falls
MnDOT’s three-year construction project along Hwy 52 between Zumbrota and Cannon Falls is set to begin July 5. The project will address safety risks along and across Hwy 52, which includes cross streets and driveways.
Construction will affect the flow of traffic between April and November each year. Traffic will be maintained on Hwy 52. However, drivers can expect reduced lanes and lane shifts. Drivers looking to cross Hwy 52 may need to follow a detour. Detours and open crossings will change as construction moves. Signs will guide drivers around closures and detour information can be found on our website in advance of the changes. Off-road work may occur during the winter months.
Please share this note with others whom you think might be interested and encourage them to sign up for project emails such as the one you’ve received.
