MnDOT has recently  released the list of construction projects for this year. From the looks of it, its going to quite a headache getting around this summer.  You can take a look for yourself by following the link to MnDOT’s page here.  I suggest taking a look to see if any highways in your area are up for reconstruction or realignment this year, and if so, you might want to get out and take a few quick shots before they’re changed / gone forever.

A few projects along U.S. 61 (a highway that you all probably know I’m a bit obsessed with at the moment) caught my eye. A three-mile section of Highway 61 north of Tofte along the north shore will be reconstructed this year. Also, four bridges near Dresbach (on the duplex with I-90)  will be replaced.
