This video is a bit scary to watch but a great reminder to move over. Lives are on the line.

We are not even two and a half months into 2019 and already too many snowplows have been hit in Southeast Minnesota.

I-35 South of Owatonna now has all lanes open, according to a media release from MNDOT.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation says an incident at the site of a road construction project near Rochester on Thursday week should serve as a reminder of the dangers of ignoring barricades and road closed signs.

On Sunday the Scott County Sheriff's office closed the bridge over the Minnesota River in Jordan. They also announced that the Minnesota Department of Transportation would close the Highway 41 Minnesota River bridge at 9 a.m. Tuesday due to flooding.

There is a bunch of road work that is going to take place in Rice County over the next couple of years. Some county Commissioners, wish there was going to be more.

Here is the news that most people were expecting. For the third weekend in a row, to wrap up their work on the Irene Hixon Whitney Pedestrian Bridge, I-94 is closing from I-394 to I-35W in Minneapolis. Traffic will be diverted to I-694, I-35W, and Highway 280.

You will experience traffic headaches this weekend if you're heading to Saturday's Kenny Chesney concert at US Bank Stadium or the Loons' match at TCF Bank Stadium.

I-94 will be closed this weekend and for two additional weekends after as the painting of the Whitney pedestrian bridge near the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden takes place. That's just the tip of the construction iceberg.

MnDOT donated equipment to the Dakota County Technical College on Tuesday to the civil engineering technology program.
