Highway 14

Here's a head's up about a road construction project on a busy highway in southeast Rochester that could affect your commute this week.

If you travel along Highway-14 between Rochester and Kasson, MnDOT wants to hear from you-- but their online survey ends Friday.

Work is beginning on the expansion project between Owatonna and Dodge Center, but some road detours are being delayed

The road construction season, including the expansion of Highway 14, could start early and go faster this year.

A bill passed by the MN Legislature finalizes the expansion of Highway 14 to a four-lane road between New Ulm and Rochester by 2022.

Full construction will begin this spring with traffic on the new roadway in 2021.

Highway 14 Groundbreaking and Other Owatonna Road Work

A bill that includes language to fix a "glitch" that threatened to delay the expansion of Highway 14 between Dodge Center and Owatonna is headed to the governor's desk for his signature.

Nine deputies from the Olmsted County Sheriff's Department were involved yesterday in the search for a missing Winona area woman.

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