I-35 detour in Minnesota

Traffic on southbound I-35 to the eastbound Highway 14 ramp in southern Minnesota will be detoured beginning Tuesday, Oct. 4 for construction work, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

I-35 traffic will take the Steele County Road 4/Hope exit to northbound I-35 and back to eastbound Highway 14. The detour will occur through Oct. 8 as crews pave southbound I-35.

The work is part of a three-year reconstruction of Highway 14 from Waseca to Owatonna, which includes a new interchange at I-35 and Highway 14.
