NISSWA — The Minnesota Department of Transportation will host a public meeting to present plans to improve Highway 371 between Nisswa and Pequot Lakes.
The meeting will be 4 to 6 p.m. Wednesday, May 14, at Nisswa City Hall and will be open-house style. People can visit with project staff, view a design layout and ask questions.
The new design will limit movements to right in/right out at County Roads 29 and 107, north of downtown Nisswa. It will also add J-turns north and south of the intersection.
Work is scheduled for 2027.
For more information, contact Luke Wehseler, project development manager, at luke.wehseler@state.mn.us or visit the project webpage.
