Starting today, the Otter Tail County highway department will be making minor repairs to the Tower Road Bridge North of the roundabout in Fergus Falls. Traffic will remain open during this work.
Flaggers will be on site managing the traffic flow; however, drivers may experience slight delays.
Craig Tschida with the Otter Tail County Highway Department noted the repair entails replacing two rubber glands used for expansion/contraction during temperature changes, as well as clean-up surrounding that replacement.
Work is expected to be completed by May 5.
