From Cook County Highway Department - April 6, 2025



An update from the Cook County Highway Department regarding the Gunflint Trail Mill the Hill Project as of April 16, 2025:

KGM Contractors will begin placing traffic control measures on the Gunflint Trail starting Monday, 4/21.

This phase of the project will affect a small section of the Gunflint Trail where it crosses the Little Devil Track River.

By Wednesday, 4/23, traffic will be reduced to a single lane at the crossing of the Little Devil Track River. Traffic will be controlled at the single lane crossing with the use of a traffic light.

From Wednesday 4/23 to Friday 4/25, Redstone Construction will begin mobilizing equipment to start constructing a temporary bridge at the Little Devil Track River. This single lane, temporary bridge will serve as a bypass to be used while the Gunflint Trail’s new bridge over the Little Devil Track River is constructed.

Please contact the Cook County Highway Department with any questions at 218-387-3014.
