A roundabout may be in the future for the intersection of County Highway 77 and Nokomis Avenue, otherwise known as the entrance to Grand View Lodge.
The Crow Wing County Board unanimously agreed Feb. 22 to support an application by the city of Nisswa seeking close to $1.25 million in funding from the Minnesota Department of Transportation’s Local Road Improvement Program. The proposal — which includes a city street, a county highway and a private entrance to The Pines Golf Course — seeks to correct what County Engineer Tim Bray characterized as increasing congestion at the intersection.
