Highway 27 lane closures from Long Prairie to Highway 28


Motorists can expect periodic lane closures and short-term delays as Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) maintenance crews are making repairs to the Highway 27 road surface between CentraCare Drive, Long Prairie, and Highway 28, north of Swanville.

Work will occur Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on good weather days until early August.

Motorists will encounter single-lane closures, lane shifts and flaggers on both directions of Highway 27. The work will be done in segments, so expect the work zone to change and move each day. Watch for heavy equipment and workers.

MnDOT advises travelers to always slow down when approaching every work zone, then navigate through with care and caution.

Other reminders:

• Never enter a roadway that has been blocked with barriers or cones

• Stay alert; work zones constantly change

• Watch for workers and slow-moving equipment

• Obey posted speed limits; fine for a work zone violation is $300

• Minimize distractions behind the wheel

MnDOT will micro-surface the pavement wheel ruts and other irregularities, which will preserve and repair the road surface. When complete, motorists will notice a smoother ride.
