Installation of a Reduced Conflict Intersection (RCI).
Note: Due to challenging existing conditions and anticipated future traffic movements, a median U-turn will not be provided south of the intersection as is in a typical Restricted Crossing U-turn (RCUT). Vehicles exiting Gillette Road at its southern terminus and wishing to travel northbound on MN 33 will need to utilize the existing roundabout 1/2 mile to the south. Vehicles may also travel north on Gillette Road to the next intersection to avoid this extra travel distance.
