Hwy 34

About this project

Hwy 34 construction in Akeley will resume in early-May, 2024. The project began July 10, 2023 and crews worked through early November. Final work in Stage 3 from Hulet to Hillside will resume in the spring, once road restrictions are lifted. The final work is expected to last approximately three to four weeks, weather permitting.

The overall project on Highway 34 in Akeley included narrowing the road width, culvert replacement, boulevard spacing, sidewalks, lighting and other safety and pedestrian accessibility improvements.

Public meetings were held at Akeley City Hall each Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. throughout the project. These meetings will resume once construction begins in 2024.
