Motorists may now travel on U.S. Highway 65 in Albert Lea without delays, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation.

Maintenance crews finished installing a box culvert under Highway 65 between South Shore Drive and Myers Road in Albert Lea. Construction began Sept. 14. That area of Highway 65 is also Southeast Broadway Avenue. South Shore Drive also is Freeborn County Road 19.

MnDOT urges motorists to always drive with caution, slow down in work zones and never enter a roadway that has been blocked with barriers or cones.
