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.
