Detour on Highway 11 near Clementson set for March 12 – 17

BEMIDJI, Minn. – Motorists traveling on Highway 11 in northern Minnesota will encounter a week-long detour from March 12 – 17 as crews replace a box culvert near Clementson in Lake of the Woods County.

Westbound traffic will be detoured just west of the Clementson Bridge, onto County Road 18, then west on County Road 94, then north on County Road 90 to Highway 11. All eastbound traffic will follow the same detour in reverse.

The detour will be posted the same as Highway 11 for weight restrictions unless road conditions require load limits to be reduced to permit passenger vehicles only.

MnDOT would like to thank the public for their patience and cooperation as we work to improve the condition of this important corridor to all northern travelers.
