Highway 97 Construction Updates

The Minnesota Department of Transportation has released additional information regarding the Highway 97 (I-35 to Highway 61) construction project scheduled to begin in early summer 2025. 

Although this phase of the project does not include construction on any City of Columbus roadways, the city does find it valuable to disseminate the information as it will directly impact local access to destinations eastbound beyond city borders.
