Lane closures on Highway 210 in Brainerd scheduled Aug. 21

Baxter, Minn. – Motorists travelling Highway 210/Washington Street in Brainerd may experience delays as both directions of the road are intermittently reduced to a single lane near the Mississippi River bridge beginning at 8 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 21.

 

All lanes of Highway 210 will reopen by 4:30 p.m.

 

The closures are needed as crews complete the routine biannual inspection of the bridge.

 

Motorists may also encounter work crews, lane closures and possible delays near other bridges throughout the Brainerd Lakes Area and central Minnesota as crews complete routine inspections and maintenance on other local bridges.

 

Motorists should slow down and prepare to stop as they approach the daily work zone, and must obey flaggers and signs as they navigate any work zone.
