11th Drive Washout – Due to a cross culvert fail there are two side by side washouts, one being 5′ deep. The date for repair of the cross culvert and shoulder is yet to be determined. Once that date is set we will let you know as the road will be 100% closed. Currently there is one lane open, but trucks and farm equipment should not be using 11th Drive until the repair is complete. Please don’t use the residential driveways to get from one end of the closure to the other. Emergency funds from the state have been applied for which should cover 70% of the cost.

11th Road Mecan River Guardrail – Work will start Monday, July 28. 11th Road will be closed from County Road JJ north to the DNR parking lot. We will be keeping the salvaged rail in hopes of using it as a guardrail for the Community Center/Town Hall parking lot.
