MANKATO, Minn. – The Minnesota Department of Transportation invites the public to attend an open house on Tuesday, April 1 from 4 to 6 p.m. at Lake Crystal City Hall, 100 East Robinson Street, to learn about the upcoming Highway 60 Lake Crystal project, in preparation for construction expected to begin in April. There is no formal presentation planned, and attendees are welcome to arrive anytime.

Staff from MnDOT and the contractor will be present at the open house to provide more information about the project and answer questions.
