The City of Shakopee plans to construct a multi-lane roundabout at the intersection of Eagle Creek Boulevard and Vierling Drive in 2024. The improvements are proposed to address traffic safety and operational needs from nearby developments that were identified in the Canterbury Commons Areawide Transportation Study. The project will include:

  • Construction of a hybrid roundabout, featuring differing lane configurations on each leg based on traffic need
  • Utility and stormwater management improvements
  • Landscaping and roadway lighting
  • Pedestrian trail and sidewalk improvements
  • Flashing Emergency Vehicle Warning Signs notifying drivers of incoming Fire Trucks
  • Overhead Utility replacement underground

Construction of the improvements will require a complete closure of the intersection, from June to August, to avoid coinciding with the school year. During the closure, traffic will be detoured along Mystic Lake Drive, 17th Avenue and Marschall Road. Local access will be permitted for adjacent properties located within the project limits.
