MERRIFIELD — Crow Wing County has entered into a contract with Anderson Brothers Construction to reconstruct the intersection of County State Aid Highway 3 and County Road 127.

The project will consist of regrading the intersection to accommodate left turn lanes and a new bituminous surface.

Construction began Tuesday, Sept. 6, and will run through Friday, Sept. 23. This schedule is subject to variability based upon weather and other factors.

During construction, the road will remain open to traffic. For the safety of the workers and the traveling public, there will be lane closures and the potential for significant delays. Use alternate routes if possible.
