WARROAD — A new roundabout and a bridge replacement on Highway 18 in Warroad are part of the two-year project slated to begin in May.
The Minnesota Department of Transportation is hosting an open house on Tuesday, March 18, at Warroad City Hall to share more about the project schedule, traffic impacts and planned detours.
There will be no formal presentation, and attendees can arrive anytime during the meeting.
From May to early October, crews will work on constructing a roundabout at the intersection of Highways 11 and 313 and replace a bridge over the Warroad river.
The bridge project is expected to take two years and will resume in 2026.
Drivers will use a truck detour on Roseau County roads 9 and 12.
