BEMIDJI, Minn. – Motorists on Highway 9
between Borup and Beltrami will experience staged detours beginning Monday, May
18, as crews begin bridge rehabilitation on five bridges on Highway 9.
The first stage of the detours will
begin on May 18, with Highway 9 detoured between Ada and Crookston. Motorists
driving south on Highway 9 from Crookston will proceed southeast on Highway 102
for nineteen miles, and then follow Highway 32 southbound for eighteen miles.
Motorists will then proceed eleven miles west on Highway 200 to Ada.
Motorists on Highway 2 westbound who are
going to Ada via Crookston will follow Highway 32 south from Marcoux 33 miles,
and then proceed westbound on Highway 200 eleven miles to Ada.
This detour is expected to conclude
around June 15, weather permitting.
Crews will be repairing and maintaining
bridges along the route, necessitating the detour. This project will ensure
that Highway 9 in Norman County will be a safer and smoother roadway for many
years to come.
