Wabasha Police Barricades Warning




The Wabasha Police Department has posted a public service announcement on their social media page stating that law enforcement has recently observed a concerning number of drivers going around construction barricades in town.


Please be advised that this is not only dangerous but also illegal.


Minnesota State Statute 160.2715(a)(14) clearly prohibits a driver from driving over, through, or around any barricade, fence, or obstruction erected to prevent traffic from passing over a portion of a highway closed to public travel.


It also prohibits the removal, defacement, or damage of any such barricades, fences, or obstructions.


While local law enforcement have been issuing warnings thus far, this leniency will not continue for long.


For the safety of everyone, they ask that everyone please respect all traffic control measures and follow posted detours.
