MnDot published community engagement results on 12/1/2020. "We repeatedly heard that people in the area want improvements for pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and transit users alike. The community suggested improvements to sidewalks and crosswalks; the possibility of bike lanes; reducing vehicle speeds; adding pullover lanes for buses; and adding more greenery, public art and improved lighting.
For an in-depth look at the major themes and comments, we encourage you to read the public engagement report."
MnDOT is planning significant improvements to Robert St. between Annapolis St. and Fillmore Ave. in 2025 or 2026.
