Community Project Funding: Wright County
Annandale 24 and Hemlock Intersection: $2.2 million
Project:
This project includes building two roundabout exits from Highway 24 in Annandale. The first exit would correct the current safety and congestion problem caused by traffic from Annandale Elementary School. The second exit would provide access to Highway 24 for the future development of the Annandale Care Center Assisted Living Facility. The project will improve a deteriorating road surface from Highway 24 to County Road 6. This project was ordered by the Annandale City Council.
Background:
- Since Annandale Elementary School was built seven years ago, school traffic has caused consistent congestion issues at the left turn.
- The new Annandale Care Center Assisted Living Facility will contain 40 units, and require highway access for residents, visitors, and staff.
- County Road 6 is the main collector for not only the school and care center traffic, but also a 245-unit mobile home park.
