On March 31st, Highway 10 (Engler Blvd.) will be closed at the Bavaria Road intersection for roundabout construction. The closure is expected to last through early June. A detour will be posted via Highways 61, 11, and 212.

 

We want to inform you that the Highway 41/10 Project will begin in early Spring 2025, impacting traffic and access to the DHA office location (544 Bavaria Ln).

This major roadway improvement project, led by Carver County, MnDOT, and the City of Chaska, includes road widening, roundabout installations, and pavement resurfacing along Highway 10 (Engler Blvd.) from Highway 212 and Old Audubon Road.

During construction, expected this Spring 2025 through Fall 2025, access to our office location may be more challenging due to road closures, detours, roadwork, and potential traffic. We encourage you to plan accordingly and invite you to review the Highway 41/10 Project Webpage and resources listed below for further details.

This project may impact office availability for meetings and administrative support. Office visits require scheduling in advance to ensure staff availability. More details will follow as they become available.

We encourage clients to use our digital tools, including Calendly for scheduling, ShareFile or TaxCaddy for document sharing, and email or phone for communication. You can access most of these tools from our website or reach out to your DHA contact to request links.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as this project is underway. Please contact us if you have any questions or need assistance navigating these changes.
