Highway 53 International Falls roundabout construction starts June 5

DULUTH, Minn. – The Minnesota Department of Transportation will be starting construction of a roundabout at Highway 53 and County Road 332 in International Falls on June 5. Through traffic on Highway 53 will be maintained throughout the project, but a detour of County Road 332 will be required. The detour route will be marked and travel on County Road 26 and County Road 24. Work is expected to last until mid-September.

Project staff recorded a video update about the work that will occur this summer. That video and general project information can be found on the website.
