​​County Road 46 Project Map​County Proj​ect 99-13

​​​​​​Dakota County and the cities of Coates, Rosemount and Empire are designing a 160th Street/Brandel Drive (County Road 46) expansion to 4-lanes. The project is​ from Highway 3 in Rosemount and Empire to the Highway 52/County Road 46 interchange in Coates.  

Project overview

160th Street/Brandel Drive (County Road 46) provides an east-west connection between Interstate 35 in Lakeville and Highway 61 in Hastings. County Road 46 is also important to the cities and township as it provides an additional east-west route for truck traffic and access to several industrial businesses, UMORE Park, Vermillion Highlands and other recreation attractions.

The proposed project will:

  • Complete a corridor traffic assessment
  • Review the Highway 52/County Road 46 interchange operations
  • Evaluate possible realignments of Akron Avenue (future county road) and County Road 81 (Clayton Avenue) south of Brandel Drive
  • Review pedestrian and bicyclist facilities
  • Determine the location for the Vermillion Highlands Greenway underpass crossing
  • Draft preliminary plans that include:
    • Reconstruction and expansion of 160th Street/Brandel Drive to a divided 4-lane roadway
    • Construct turn lanes at all public street intersections
    • Intersection control evaluation

​Tentative project schedule

Winter 2024-spring 2025: Data collection and layout development
Late summer 2025: Public information meeting 
Late fall 2025: Preliminary design ​
