If you have a school-aged child in Rosemount, odds are you’ve waited in line at a particular intersection that is undergoing an update this summer.
Located just paces from Rosemount High School and Rosemount Middle School, the intersection at Minnesota 3 and 142nd St. W. is getting a new roundabout to improve safety and reduce delays, according to a news release from the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

A public meeting is planned for Wednesday to discuss the $3 million project, which will see Minnesota 3 closed in both directions between Connemara Trail and 145th Street starting June 9 through September.
In addition to the roundabout, crews will add drainage and re-align the bike and pedestrian crosswalks to include access to the roundabout, according to the project page.
The public meeting, which starts at 4:30 p.m. at the Rosemount High School Student Center at 3335 142nd St. W., will have visuals of the roundabout and detours.
While there will not be a formal presentation, members of the project team will be in attendance to answer questions.
