Work begins on Gunflint Trail and Cramer Road


Reclamation on the Gunflint Trail (CSAH 12) will began this week and is expected to take two to three weeks.

This project is being done by KGM Contractors, Inc. and consists of reconditioning with stabilized full depth reclamation and paving between Trout Lake Road and Pine Mountain Road.

Paving is expected to start in late July and take approximately three weeks, weather permitting. According to Interim Department Head, Mike Tardy, P.E., traffic will be restricted to one lane, with a pilot car leading traffic through the construction zone.

Additionally, Northland Constructors of Duluth will be constructing a bypass road at the Two Island River on Cramer Road (CSAH 1) mid-July. Traffic will be rerouted on the bypass during the double box culvert replacement, which is expected to take four to five weeks, weather permitting.

The Highway Department urges motorists to plan accordingly and drive with caution in all work zones.
