I-35 work begins near Barnum

Construction work began Monday, June 20, on Interstate 35 near Barnum. The initial work will be constructing median crossovers in preparation for two-way, head-to-head traffic traveling on southbound I-35, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation. While median work is taking place, motorists can expect daytime lane closures in the inside lanes. The northbound side of Interstate 35 will be closed starting July 5 for the duration of construction, with northbound traffic shifted to the southbound side under a two-way head-to-head configuration. Northbound Exit 220 at Barnum will be closed for approximately 10 weeks with exit traffic detoured at Exit 214 through Moose Lake along Highway 73 and County Road 61 to Barnum. All other ramps will remain open during construction.
