County maintenance crews will be
performing ditch maintenance work on CSAH 15, Monday & Tuesday and CSAH 11,

Maintenance crews will be working in
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 Friday. 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 rain or snowfall in Crow Wing County.
All maintenance work is weather
sensitive and is subject to delay or change.
