ELBA, Minn. (KWNO)-Gravel work on a stretch of Highway 74 in Winona County got underway on Monday.  

MnDOT says crews are removing a deteriorating four-mile stretch of the Highway north of Elba. That new gravel stretch will connect with a gravel stretch already in place along 74 in Wabasha County.  

The work is expected to last for a month. MnDOT says the gravel replacement is due to insufficient funding needed to maintain a paved road in that stretch.
