Project Description: <br /> <br />Cass County has recently completed a road widening and maintenance overlay project on <br />Cass County Highway 17 which included the addition of turnlanes at all major <br />intersections, intersection safety accommodations (including a roundabout feature at the <br />52nd Ave S intersection), drainage improvements, and right of way acquisition, Due to <br />the costs associated with this project certain aesthetic accommodations were unable to be <br />facilitated. The tree plantings will finish the project by creating a visual buffer between <br />the large amount of residential development along this corridor and the increasing <br />amount of traffic this roadway experiences. <br />
