Background:
MnDOT is leading a pavement rehabilitation project on TH 12 in 2026. During construction TH 12 will be temporarily closed between CSAH 15 and TH 494. The weekend closure will last approximately two days with traffic detouring onto CSAH 101 for roughly 4 miles between TH 55 and TH 12. MnDOT will notify the county in advance of the detour dates.
Minnesota Statutes, section 161.25 authorizes the Commissioner of Transportation to designate any public street as a temporary trunk highway detour when determined that such detour is necessary for the purpose of maintaining or constructing a trunk highway. MnDOT will reimburse Hennepin County for the road life consumed by the detour.
Current Request: This request seeks authorization to execute Agreement PW 06-40-26 (State Contract No. 1061777) with the Minnesota Department of Transportation for the use of CSAH 101 as a detour route during the construction to be performed upon, along, and adjacent to TH 12 under state project number 2713-129. The estimated receivable of $2,601.42 will be received as revenue in the operating budget for the Transportation Operations Department.
Impacts/Outcomes: This action reflects a cooperative effort with MnDOT to improve safety, accessibility, and operational efficiency along a key regional corridor.
