Title: MN: US53 Rerouted in Virginia
Post by: Ib3kii on November 28, 2018, 12:26:24 am

A new bridge(the biggest in Minnesota now) was completed in the northern city of Virginia, Minnesota; making US53's new alignment curve much wider in the Iron Range and cross the water pit further north.

Another thing to note about this is MN135's endpoint, which was moved slightly to the east at a new interchange with US53.

An article about the bridge's completion (https://www.twincities.com/2017/09/16/tallest-bridge-in-minnesota-is-dedicated-you-can-drive-over-it-really-soon/)

I drove this bridge in October this year, so I can confirm that the bridge is now open to the public.

This has been submitted and added.  Realized I forgot to change the MN 135 file and have now done so.  Marking solved.
