Minnesota’s 2025 Construction Season Encompasses Multi-Faceted Urban Mobility and Safety Initiatives

The Minneapolis-St. Paul area witnesses extensive mobility and safety upgrades this summer as MnDOT spearheads highway resurfacing, bridge reinforcement, and multimodal infrastructure enhancements. Key projects along Highway 55 and Highway 36 include pavement rehabilitation designed to withstand harsh climates, bridge deck waterproofing, sidewalk improvements, and expanded bicycle lanes.
Nighttime construction and detours help ease traffic disruptions during peak commuting hours. Community engagement remains central, with public feedback shaping accessible pathways and transit integrations. These ongoing projects embody Minnesota’s commitment to creating a balanced, efficient transportation network that supports economic growth, environmental stewardship, and equitable access.
