D3 - Hwy 10, 29 & 71 in Wadena: 2025–2027 construction
Slow down and yield at the new roundabout
We want to give drivers a quick reminder: please slow down and yield to traffic in the new roundabout at the west end of Hwy 10 at Co. Rd. 92.
 The roundabout is designed to improve safety and traffic flow, but we’ve heard reports of drivers not adjusting to the new layout.
As one Wadena resident put it:
“Drivers on Highway 10 are used to just cruising straight into town without stopping. It’s a big change, but people are going way too fast and not yielding to others already in the roundabout. Someone’s going to get hurt.”
Yes, this roundabout is a little different—half of it is temporary—but it's functional, and all traffic laws still apply.
Roundabout driving refresher:
- Slow down as you approach
-
Yield to vehicles already in the roundabout (they have the right-of-way)
- Don’t stop inside the roundabout
- Use your turn signal when exiting
Thanks for helping keep Wadena’s roads safe this winter!
Winter is coming. MnDOT is ready. Are you?
When complete in August 2027, Wadena will have an expanded four-lane highway, safer roads, smoother travel and upgraded infrastructure along Hwys 10, 29 and 71.
