ROCHESTER, Minn. – Paving work on Highway 14 in southeast Rochester was completed last week and the road is fully open again to traffic from Marion Road east to Chester, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

MnDOT thanks everyone for their patience while construction work occurred this season to improve the road.
