Minnesota DOT’s Twin Cities Initiates Major Multimodal Transportation Enhancements

Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) is advancing multimodal transportation projects within the Twin Cities metro area to combat growing congestion and improve transit accessibility in August 2025.
Major highway resurfacing, including Highway 55 improvements designed to extend pavement life with high-tech asphalt mixes, is complemented by pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure upgrades, widening sidewalks, and creating bike lanes on key corridors.
The project includes extensive public outreach to coordinate construction activities minimizing disruptions for commuters while enhancing accessibility features per ADA standards.
This integrated approach supports economic activity, environmental sustainability, and improved quality of urban life.
