Wabasha Highway 60 Bridge Work

Highway 60 motorists crossing the Mississippi River in Wabasha will encounter lane closures and brief traffic delays again today as crews inspect the bridge, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

The inspection of the Highway 60 Wabasha bridge, the Michael Duane Clickner Memorial Bridge, got underway yesterday and is expected to be completed by the end of today.

Traffic will be reduced to a single lane. Flaggers will briefly stop traffic in one direction to allow vehicles traveling in the opposite direction to cross.

Once they’ve crossed, vehicles in the other direction will be allowed to pass. Motorists should expect traffic delays during the daytime inspection process.

This annual inspection evaluates safety and monitors the effects of traffic, weather and other elements on the structure.
