I-90 repaving, east of Albert Lea to Austin

Construction begins May 4 for I-90 resurfacing project, east of Albert Lea to Austin

The I-90 repaving project east of Albert Lea to Austin is scheduled to begin May 4. 

The project includes resurfacing eastbound I-90 from Freeborn County Road 46, east of Albert Lea, to Hwy 105 in Austin. In addition, a minimal amount of culvert work will impact westbound and eastbound traffic. The project is scheduled to be complete in November. 

The following detours will be in place for eastbound I-90 motorists using traffic ramps for Freeborn County Road 46 and Hwy 105:

  • The entrance to eastbound I-90 from Freeborn County Road 46 will be closed and motorists will follow detour on Freeborn County Road 46 to I-90 in Austin.
  • Exit from eastbound I-90 to Freeborn County Road 46 will be closed. Motorists are to exit at Freeborn County Road 26 and follow it to Freeborn County Road 46.
  • Exit from eastbound I-90 to Hwy 105 will be closed. Motorists are to exit at Hwy 218/14th St NW and take 14th St NW to Hwy 105.
