BAXTER — All lanes are set to open and the detour will lift on Highway 71 from Browerville to Clarissa in Todd County on Friday, July 29, the Minnesota Department of Transportation reported.

The two Highway 71 double-box bridges are installed in Browerville — the Harris Creek in the north end and the Drayer Creek in the south end.

The $1.4 million project will reduce overall maintenance costs and improve drainage through Browerville.

Our newsroom occasionally reports stories under a byline of "staff." Often, the "staff" byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.
