DETROIT LAKES, Minn. – Motorists traveling on Interstate
94 west of Alexandria near Lake Latoka will encounter intermittent delays and
lane closures during the first two weeks of April.
Traffic will reduce to a single lane in each direction
during daytime hours through mid-April while crews work near the interstate as
part of the CapX2020 transmission line project.
On Tuesday, April 1, and Wednesday, April 2,
weather-permitting, crews will use a helicopter to string power lines over the
interstate. Traffic may stop temporarily during this work. State Patrol
troopers will be on site to assist travelers through the work zone. Motorists
should slow down, be alert and keep traveling through the work zone, unless
directed by law enforcement.
Several I-94 wire crossings will occur between Alexandria
and Barnesville this summer and fall. Additional information will be released
in advance of those crossings.
