Bemidji, Minn. – According to the Minnesota Department of Transportation, the Highway 87 eastern construction project near Highway 64 will begin on August 11. Motorists will detour using Highways 64, 34 and 71. The detour is expected to be lifted late-August.
The project includes Highway 87 from Highway 64 to Hubbard County Road 13. The project includes resurfacing and replacing culverts.
Highway 87 between Highway 64 and Hubbard County Road 13 will be detoured approximately two weeks during construction, but residents and businesses will be able to access their properties. Thru traffic will not be allowed to ensure safety of the workers. The project is expected to be complete mid-September, weather permitting.
