In 2021-22, MnDOT conducted a corridor study along Hwy 61 through Two Harbors. We worked with the community to identify multiple improvement aspects of the corridor and presented the final corridor plan at the end of 2022. The project will be delivered over two construction years.
MnDOT, along with consultants, City of Two Harbors staff and a community advisory committee, worked through the visual quality process for the Hwy 61 project. A public meeting was also held on May 21, 2024, for feedback. A visual quality manual has been published and passed along to the City of Two Harbors for reference on future aesthetics not covered within the scope of MnDOT's Hwy 61 construction project. The visual quality manual gives recommendations such as colors, textures, lighting, greenery, plantings, signage and more along the corridor. View the manual (PDF)

The Utah DOT Traffic and Safety division produced an informational video on roundabouts. It showcases the benefits of roundabouts (especially the safety benefit) to a wide variety of audiences. Roundabouts are not the perfect solution at all intersections, however, in the right locations, roundabouts can be a very safe and efficient way to move not just motor vehicles but pedestrians and bicyclists, too.
