No travel advisory remains in effect
The Mankato Office of the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) reports that state highways are open – but that the NO TRAVEL ADVISORY for southwestern and south central Minnesota continues.
Previously closed state highways – including Minnesota State Highway #60 – in the following counties have opened as visibility has somewhat improved:
* Blue Earth.
* Brown.
* Cottonwood.
* Jackson.
* Martin.
* Nobles.
* Watonwan.
Motorists may encounter brief lane and road closures where crashes occur.
Motorists are advised to:
* Check road conditions at www.511mn.org or call 511; it takes time to get roads back to good driving conditions.
* Be patient and remember snowplows are working to improve road conditions for your trip.
