You can watch TV shows for ideas, enlist the help of a knowlegable Realtor or higher a professional staging company. regardless, it is a great adea and a value add when deciding to list your house for sale.

More Road Construction- It's About Time!

MNDOT has finally received funding to complete the 610 exchange from Hwy. 169 to Hwy. 81 in Maple Grove. The construction starts with the closing of Hemlock and Revere Lanes in Maple Grove on 11/16/09. The new Hwy 610 extension will be a 2.74 mile long, four-lane highway from Hwy 169 in Brooklyn Park to County Road 81 in Maple Grove. The project includes two interchanges, or highway access points, at Highway 169 and Zachary Lane. The project also includes three overpasses, or highway crossings, at Jefferson Hwy., Revere Lane, and Hemlock Lane. A pedestrian bridge at Nathan Lane and construction of noisewalls along the corridor are also part of the project.

See link to project information:http://www.dot.state.mn.us/metro/projects/610/

Most residents of the Northwest suburbs are extremely excited about this road being completed. It will save hundreds of travelers time and gas when traveling to the north metro and northeast suburbs. Travelers from Maple Grove, Rogers, Coorcoran, St.Michael and other towns used to have to cut through Maple Grove and then through downtown Osseo to get to Hwy. 169 or they had to follow 94 around all of the way around south Maple Grove to 169 and then go north to 610. Completion of this project is scheduled for November 2010.
