State officials on Thursday detailed 221 road and bridge projects they'll take on this year across Minnesota, including work on Interstate 35W in the Twin Cities and along Interstate 94 in central Minnesota.

Some of the projects are underway already. Signs on lane closures will be going up soon on others. Officials said the projects would boost safety while supporting thousands of construction jobs across the state.

Transportation Commissioner Margaret Anderson Kelliher also made a pitch for more money from the Legislature, saying the long-term funding picture remained bleak compared to the state's needs.

Here's a look at some of this year's projects across Minnesota. MnDOT has the complete list posted on its website.
