 Crossing into Iowa on southbound US 52.  Photo by Monte Castleman, taken July, 2002.

Northbound Photos

 Northbound at Dakota CSAH 46.  Due to a high accident rate, a new interchange has been built here since this photo was taken.  Photo by Adam Froehlig.

Northbound at the loop to westbound I-494 and MN 110.  The gap in the guide sign goes back to when US 52 followed Robert St and not the Lafayette Freeway (which was MN 3 back then).  Photo by Adam Froehlig.

At the exit ramp to Plato Blvd, near the St. Paul Downtown Airport.  The guide sign on the left states "US 52 Follow I-94 West".  This is the last reference to US 52 in Minnesota, with the next reference not being until after crossing the Red River into Fargo, ND.  Photo by Adam Froehlig.

Near the north end of the Lafayette Bridge, at the ramp to I-94 East.  Note that there is already no further mention of US 52 following I-94 West.  Photo by Adam Froehlig.

Southbound Photos

 Good shot of south(east)bound US 52 in southern Dakota County, between Hampton and Cannon Falls.  Photo by Adam Froehlig, taken in July, 1996.

A short bypass lane at the junction with Olmsted CSAH 7, which might become a MN 42 extension sometime in the future.  Photo by Adam Froehlig.

This rock cut is located somewhere between Chatfield and Preston.  Photo by Adam Froehlig.
