If you drive through Coon Rapids during rush hour you will be glad to read this note. Highway 10 from Egret to Hanson Blvd will be upgraded to 6 lanes next year. MnDOT plans to spend $10 million to move the redneck bottleneck west 3 miles, potentially eliminating the jam completely for afternoon and morning commuters. Construction will start next April and continue until November when the new lanes will open. The largest expense in the project will be replacing the bridges over the railroad tracks.
Currently, Highway 10 goes from 3 lanes to 2 right after 610 and 47 join the freeway, making for a long slow rush hour as traffic merges. Now the 3rd lane will end at Hanson where 1/3 of the cars exit anyways, This could easily knock off 5-10 minutes from your commute!
