DETROIT
LAKES, Minn. – Motorists traveling on Interstate 94 will encounter
intermittent delays and lane closures Wednesday, May 28, west of
Alexandria and Thursday, May 29, near Barnesville for work on the
CapX2020 transmission line project.
Traffic will reduce to a single lane in each direction during daytime hours while crews work near the interstate.
Crews
will use a helicopter to string power lines over the roadway. Minnesota
State Patrol troopers will be on site to assist travelers through the
work zone.
Motorists
may be required to stop briefly. As they approach the work zone,
drivers should slow down, be alert and keep traveling, unless directed
by law enforcement.
Several additional I-94 wire crossings will occur between Alexandria and Barnesville this summer and fall.
