    Work on the Highway 101 improvement project in Chanhassen and Eden Prairie will begin at 6 a.m. Monday, June 10, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

    Then, starting at 6 a.m. Monday, June 17, Highway 101 will be closed in both directions between Highway 5 in Chanhassen and County Road 62 in Eden Prairie through October. During this period, Highway 101 will only be open to local traffic between Chanhassen and Eden Prairie.

    Regional traffic will be detoured:

    • Southbound drivers at Highway 101 and Highway 7 will be routed west to Highway 41, south to Highway 5, and east to Highway 101.
    • Northbound drivers at Highway 101 and Highway 5 will be routed west to Powers Boulevard, north to Highway 7, and east to Highway 101.

    Local traffic will alternate using a single lane controlled by a stop sign between Choctaw Circle and Sandy Hook Road/Lotus View Drive as crews improve drainage at Purgatory Creek.

    The project, in partnership with the cities of Chanhassen and Eden Prairie, includes repaving two miles of Highway 101, reconstructing the adjacent trail, adding pedestrian crossing signals at Valley View Road and Twilight Trail, improving the accessibility of ramps and signals, and fixing shoulders.
