Help is on the way for motorists stuck in the gridlock at the intersection of Highway 13 and County Road 101, as a $7 million allocation for a new interchange has been approved by the Metropolitan Council’s Transportation Advisory Board (TAB).

The grant is one of four projects approved this week in federal highway funds for Scott County. Besides the $7 million for the 13/101 intersection in Savage, $6 million has been approved for the new County Road 21 alignment through Prior Lake and Shakopee; $630,000 for the construction of a roundabout at county roads 68 and 91 in Credit River Township; and $225,000 in rail crossing safety funds in Jordan.
