PUBLIC NOTICE

The Minnesota Depart-

ment of Transportation

proposes to construct a

roundabout at the inter-

section of US 14/North

Highland Avenue in

New Ulm in 2024. The

project will provide trail

accommodations at the

roundabout that tie into

existing trail connec-

tions. The project will

also improve pedestri-

an and bicycle accessi-

bility.

In accordance with 23

CFR 774.5, MnDOT is

soliciting comments on

the effects this project

would have on the New

Ulm Recreational Trail.

The project will impact

450 feet of the New

Ulm Recreational Trail

at the intersection of

North Highland Avenue

and US 14.

The Federal Highway

Administration has

made a preliminary

determination that the

proposed action on the

New Ulm Recreational

Trail is a Section 4(f)

de minimis action in

accordance with 23

CFR 774.5, condi-

tioned on public review

and comment. A de

minimis finding may be

made when uses of

Section 4(f) land will

have no adverse effect

on the protected

resources.

Information on this im-

pact and avoidance,

minimization, mitiga-

tion or enhancement

measures is available
