Watch the traffic going ’round

Live webcam for mini-roundabouts in St. James in place through March 2018

 

 

The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) will be temporarily recording and streaming live footage of the recently-constructed mini-roundabouts in St. James with a traffic webcam. The webcam will be live now until March 2018, and will be used to monitor traffic flow and performance during winter weather conditions.

During Minnesota Highway #4 construction in summer 2017, mini-roundabouts were constructed to replace traffic signals at the intersections of 1st Avenue South and Armstrong Boulevard North, and 1st Avenue South and 7th Street South. A webcam has been placed near the intersection of 1st Avenue South and Armstrong Boulevard North and is directed at the mini-roundabouts.

To view the live webcam of the mini-roundabouts, visit app.truelook.com/?u=ss1514233905.

Construction on Highway #4 through St. James will begin again in May 2018, and will include the sidewalk and roadway reconstruction north of 8th Avenue North, as well as address unfinished work and additional updates throughout the project area. During this time, traffic will be detoured to Watonwan County Road #56 (1st Avenue) and Watonwan County Road #55 around the construction area.
