No travel advisory lifted in west central Minnesota

The Minnesota Department of Transportation and the Minnesota State Patrol opened Interstate 94 between Alexandria and Moorhead at 2 p.m.

 

Highways now open include:

 

* Interstate 94 from Alexandria to Moorhead

* Highway 10 from Moorhead to Audubon

* Highway 210 from Fergus Falls to Breckenridge

The no travel advisory in west central Minnesota has been lifted, but current driving conditions are difficult due to drifting snow, blowing snow and icy patches. Motorists should still use extreme caution when traveling.

MnDOT reminds motorists to be patient while snowplow operators work to improve driving conditions. The majority of snowplow crashes take place during “clean up” when motorists resume their normal speeds.
