Hwy. 101 Reopens In S. Metro Wednesday Afternoon

CHANHASSEN, Minn. (WCCO) -- Marking the potential end of the spring flooding season, Highway 101 between downtown Shakopee and Chanhassen is set to reopen Wednesday afternoon.

Motorists can use the highway again starting at 3 p.m. That stretch of highway, which spans the Minnesota River, had been closed since March 23 due to construction and spring flooding concerns.

Construction crews were able to get repairs on the highway done two days earlier than anticipated.
