the ditch but may be working on one travel lane and shoulder simultaneously,
creating the need to close one or more lanes of traffic. Signing, flaggers or
portable traffic lights will control the traffic flow through these work areas.
County maintenance crews will be patching potholes
on various county roads on Monday. Crews will be pulling over and stopping
frequently on the shoulders of the roads, to perform the patching work. Loose patching
material debris may be present.
County snowplows are ready and on standby in the
event of significant snowfall in Crow Wing County.
All maintenance work is weather
sensitive and is subject to delay or change.
