• CSAH 30 between CSAH 10 and TH 74 (in Winona County)
• CSAH 32 between CSAH 10 and TH 14

Work will be completed one lane at a time, with traffic being controlled through the use of flagging operations.

Construction on CSAH 7 and CR 142 in Eyota includes underground utility work on 5th Street SE.  This work is anticipated to occur in mid-July, at which time the road will be closed to traffic and a detour established.  An updated press release will be provided prior to road closure.
