Striping & Traffic Control Worker prevailing wage, Cass County group, Minnesota (2 counties)
DLI sets the same striping and traffic control worker rates, row for row, in 2 counties: Cass and Hubbard. Every figure on this page applies in each of them.
$21.42an hour, base wage + fringe benefits
$21.42 base wage + $0.00 fringe benefits
On Minnesota public works in each of these 2 counties, a striping and traffic control worker must be paid at least $21.42 an hour: a $21.42 base wage plus $0.00 in fringe.
DLI certifications of Nov 3 and Dec 22, 2025 (revised to Feb 9, 2026); this rate, effective December 22, 2025. The rates "must be ascertained before the state asks for bids" and written into the contract, with their dated steps (Minn. Stat. 177.43). Checked against dli.mn.gov on October 25, 2026.
Base wage and fringe benefits: $21.42 + $0.00
The base wage is the taxable hourly wage. DLI prints the fringe as one hourly figure, not itemized; it can go to health, pension, vacation and training plans, or be paid as cash where the state allows.
| Base wage (taxable) | $21.42 |
| Total hourly rate, as printed | $21.42 |
When does this rate change?
- Minnesota rates are set before bids and written into the contract, including their dated steps (Minn. Stat. 177.43, subd. 3–4). The schedule in your bid documents controls.
- DLI certifies rates at least once a year from a survey of the previous 12 months, and may certify changes at any time (Minn. R. 5200.1020, 5200.1120). Highway/heavy was certified November 3, 2025 and commercial December 22, 2025, with revisions through February 9, 2026.
