WHITEWATER STATE PARK That quick getaway to one of Southeast Minnesota’s favorite nature spots will take a little extra planning for 2021.
Starting Monday and going through October, Minnesota Highway 74 will be a construction zone at the south end of the park while Minnesota Department of Transportation crews reconstruct four historic bridges in a $4.6 million project.
“These (bridges) were started in 1935 or ’36, in that range, over the winter,” said Jeremy Darst, a naturalist and historian for the park.
