Thank you for watching out for others, and remember, Winona Health is always accessible from Parks Ave off Hwy 61 near the Winona Family Y. Construction continues on the Highway 43 project in Winona but be alert for traffic changes as the work progresses. Here is an update on current construction and the work ahead. • Please watch for lane changes south of Sarnia St near the newly installed box culvert (a large structure for drainage) as crews work to remove the old culvert that connects Lake Winona and Gilmore Creek. • A closure of Parks Ave north is being scheduled midweek for most of the day while Xcel Energy continues work with its gas line placement. Please use other entrances off of Hwy 43/Mankato Ave to reach destinations on the west side, such as Winona Health. We will announce the date when plans are finalized by Xcel. • Additional traffic changes at Sarnia St will be coming soon as crews work on that area. • The temporary traffic signal and no left turn signs are being removed at Sugar Loaf View by Kwik Trip. • Remember that Riverbend Rd is closed to traffic on the east side of Hwy 43/Mankato Ave. The Riverbend Rd closure is estimated to last for another week, then Bruski Dr will close after Riverbend Rd reopens. • Left turns on Hwy 43/Mankato Ave are not allowed. No left turn signs are present as you approach intersections as well as drive into the intersections. Trying to make left turns will cause traffic backups, and there will be times that those side road entrances will be closed for construction. o If you are going southboundand you want to go east onto Bruski Dr, Riverbend Rd or Frontenac Dr, you will have to go south to the Hwy 61/43 roundabout and come back north and turn right onto your desired street. View a map here. o If you are going northboundand you want to go west onto Parks Ave south, Riverbend Rd or Parks Ave north, you will have to take a right turn at one of the intersections going east, go around the block and travel west straight across Mankato Ave. View a map here. • All businesses can be accessed through the work zone. • Remember to view the overhead signs at the Hwy 61/Hwy 43 roundabout that direct you to which lane is best for the direction you want to travel after you exit the roundabout.
