If you are driving on Highway 23, east of Paynesville you many have noticed the new bypass. The recent addition has caused some controversy among the locals. The new Highway 23 Paynesville Bypass began in mid-April 2010 and was completed ahead of schedule, on July 20.

Work crews are hauling equipment across Highway 55 in Paynesville today causing some minor delays. The equipment will be used on the 7-and-a-half mile Highway 23 Paynesville bypass project.
