(Deerwood, MN) — Motorists will be encountering changes with the Highway 210 work zone between Deerwood and Aitkin starting Monday, September 13th running through Friday, September 17th. 

Crews will be closing the road to replace a pipe near Rushmeyer Lake.

For travelers heading eastbound on Highway 210, the road will continue to be a one-lane, one-way work zone before following a detour around Rushmeyer Lake back to Highway 210 at County Road 32 and continue to Aitkin. The pipe detour uses Town Hall Road.

Driving westbound on Highway 210, the road remains closed and detoured along Highway 169 Aitkin to Bennetville, then Aitkin County Road 11 and Crow Wing County Road 14 to Highway 6 Bay Lake, back to Deerwood.

All lanes will reopen at 3pm on Friday, September 17th, as all lanes of Highway 210 will continue to be open on weekends in both directions.
