In southeastern Minnesota there are 33 road construction projects slated to begin this year. The largest of these is the Highway 52 expansion. Even though the amount of state funding remains uncertain, the project preparation is underway. Minnesota Department of Transportation officials are in the process of buying property from business and home owners along Highway 52 in Rochester. Reconstructing the four-lane highway has been on the books for a decade. So moving should come as no surprise to property owners. But that doesn't make the process any easier. Mainstreet Radio's Laurel Druley has this report.
