Hwy 75 detour between Kennedy and Hallock begins Aug. 27

BEMIDJI, Minn. --- Motorists traveling on Highway 75 in Kittson County will encounter a detour between Kennedy and Hallock on Monday, Aug. 27, as crews replace a culvert.

Northbound traffic at Kennedy will be detoured east on County Road 7 for five miles, then north on County Road 5 for nine miles and west on Highway 175 for seven miles back to Highway 75.  Southbound traffic from Hallock will follow the same detour in reverse.

The project is expected to be completed by mid-September.
