New Survey regarding the redesign of East 7th Street

Did you know that MNDOT is redesigning East 7th Street and Arcade Street to improve safety and accessibility? The Dayton’s Bluff District 4 Community Council wants to give one last opportunity to let us know what you’re thinking about this project!

The project includes: road repaving, sidewalk repairs, sidewalk curb ramps and driveway replacements, safety and ADA accessibility improvements, traffic signal and pedestrian lighting improvements, bus stop improvements, landscaping, and stormwater management improvement.

On East 7th between Mounds Boulevard and Minnehaha Avenue, MNDOT has two options under consideration. Both options include the current four driving lanes being reduced to three. But, one option includes wider parking lanes and the other option includes bike lanes.
