Route description

State Highway 32 serves as a north–south route between Tansem Township, Twin Valley, Fertile, Red Lake Falls, Thief River Falls, and Greenbush in west-central and northwest Minnesota. The route is also known as:

Highway 32 parallels U.S. 75 and U.S. 59 throughout its route. The route passes through the Glacial Ridge National Wildlife Refuge in Polk County, east of Crookston, west of Erskine.[3][4]

History

State Highway 32 was established November 2, 1920.[1] At this time, it ran from State Highway 8 (present-day U.S. 2) east of Crookston to Greenbush. By 1923, the road was mostly graveled, with a section of unimproved dirt between Holt and Middle River and another north of Strathcona.[5] All graveling was completed by 1930.[6] In 1933, the route was extended south, from U.S. 2 to State Highway 34 south of Rollag. This extension was graveled in its entirety.[7] When U.S. 59 was established in Minnesota in 1935, it ran concurrent with Highway 32 between Thief River Falls and present-day Marshall County State-Aid Highway 28 (north of Holt) until 1960. North of U.S. 2, the highway was paved in sections throughout the 1940s.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14] South of U.S. 2, the first section of highway to be paved was from the junction with then-Highway 31 (now Highway 200) north of Twin Valley to a point just south of Fertile in 1937;[15][16] paving was extended into both Fertile and Twin Valley in 1940,[17][16] as well as from U.S. 10 to Hitterdal (although part of the latter segment was reverted to gravel in 1943).[18] In 1948, it was paved from U.S. 10 north to Ulen, and then from Ulen to Twin Valley the following year.[18][17] Paving from Highway 102 to U.S. 2 and from Rollag to U.S. 10 was done in 1952 and the final segment from Highway 34 to Rollag in 1954,[19][20] making the route paved in its entirety.[21]
