Highway 169 bridge project in Princeton to begin April 21

A MnDOT project to update and improve eight Highway 169 bridges in Princeton will begin on April 21.

According to MnDOT, the work is expected to take six months and cost $7.3 million.

Due to the work, Highway 169 will be reduced to one lane in each direction at most times.

Crews will improve bridges over North Rum River Drive, the West Branch Rum River, First Street, and South Rum River Drive.
