 I'm Chandra Colvin. A two-year construction project along U.S. Highway 12 in central Minnesota will begin this week with a two-week closure of the highway. MnDOT says a stretch of Highway 12 between Litchfield and Dassault will close tomorrow as crews begin working on culvert replacements and concrete repairs. That closure runs through July 20th. Though through the rest of the summer, the project will include highway resurfacing as well as pedestrian safety improvements. This is NPR News.
