Archwood Road Closure

Archwood Road will be closed from Wayzata Boulevard South to approximately 200 feet south of the intersection beginning July 7. The closure is expected to last 8 to 10 weeks. This will allow crews to install new sanitary sewer pipe. Traffic will be detoured south on Ford Road, and west along Crestridge Drive.
