I-94 Road Construction to Start in Mid-April

CLEARWATER -- Starting next month, road crews will begin the final year of construction on Interstate 94 between Monticello and Clearwater.

Starting Friday, April 15th crews will create crossovers, emergency pull-offs and move cement barriers into place.

On April 25th, all traffic will be moved to the westbound lanes with two lanes of traffic in each direction, separated by a median.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation says they'll have tow trucks on the scene during peak times to help prevent massive delays in the event of crashes or breakdowns.
