Minnesota 511

Map does not show road closure & construction that has been going on for two months.

Currently there is major roadwork between Hwy 14 and Highland Avenue in New Ulm. A roundabout is being constructed. On my iPhone I have been able to access Live Photos of construction going on, but on my iPad I am not able to access any of these features. Do you have two systems or two apps, that is not right. . . . .please fix.

We use several routes quite often around the Twin Cities and collar counties. We have found the farther you are from Hennepin and 1st, the less current data there is and the less accurate the 511 data becomes. A prime, and truly frustrating, example is Hwy 65 north, a very, very busy artery. It is under construction and modifications and lane closures. Yet the 511 “system “ says it is just fine, just normal, no problem!! Then why are we sitting in crammed lanes, slow traffic and increasing road rage, fueled by huge pickups constantly cutting us off and aggressively pushing their privileged “status” “earned by” size. I just now looked again and 511 indicates “no problem.” I’m very disgusted with 511’s minimal and inaccurate coverage. You folks should be ashamed. As my son said yesterday as he traveled north from Cottage Grove, “well that drive from 694 up the 25 miles on 65 is another hour and a half I’ll never get to spend again.” And, he checked 511 for road slow downs and closures!! Not a good system when it actually leads us into problems. Dr. Wayne Samuelson and extended families.

As a passenger in a vehicle trying to verify our route is clear of accidents, I got an error message that I need internet access. I have plenty if phone data speed. What the heck!

Useless. Maybe someone who can mind read the app can figure out how to get it to show any of the things you want to see, but none of the buttons change the view. Adding layers doesn’t either.

Worse than last app. Can’t get any real information on major incidents Highway movement whatever. Complete waste

It’s not the best way to look the app issue is frequently is out or will not work for the money that the dot spreads a year this is a very bad app Google is better than 511 I have uninstalled and will just use the google app

I live in Wisconsin and work in Minnesota. I spend a lot of my leisure time in Minnesota because I grew up there. Wisconsin has a “travel to” option in their 511. When used the 511 system tells you how the roads are for your specific travel plans.

From I35 on I90 E and W to Wisconsin

You really need to update your legend, partially covered? Completely covered? With what!? Came through on 94 on 1/5/24 and had no clue what your road condition map showed.
