Greenbush Businesses:
Thrive During Construction

  • MnDOT recognizes that as construction projects become larger in size and duration, small businesses are more at risk for difficulties arising from construction impacts. In response, we will work with small businesses to understand their concerns and provide them with information, options, and resources they may need to weather the potential impacts of roadway construction.
    MnDOT recommends businesses, community members and all motorists to stay informed on the project by joining the project email updates on the project website: www.mndot.gov/d2/projects/hwy11-greenbush. Business owners can also reach out to their regional Small Business Development Centers (SBDC) to assist.
