Reclaiming and Paving Begin on Highway 87 near Frazee

FRAZEE (KDLM) – Reclaiming and paving continue on Highway 87 between Frazee and Evergreen.

MnDOT says reclaiming is nearly complete, and crews are expected to finish paving by next weekend.

As crews pave, they’re likely to be in various locations daily. Local traffic is asked to remain alert for changing work zones and travel with caution. You will continue to encounter pilot cars and lane closures between Frazee and Evergreen.

In addition to reclaiming and paving, crews are also putting finishing touches on the new bridge at the Otter Tail River. Until guardrail is in place, Highway 87 remains impassable at the bridge site, between North River Drive and Main Avenue East. Please continue to use an alternate route.

All Highway 87 thru-traffic should continue to follow the detour route on Highway 71, Highway 34 and County Road 29/Birch Avenue.
