We're on the cusp of a lot of new work. 76th Street was completely reconstructed east of 35W over the last few years. The Xerxes (494), Xerxes (Crosstown) Penn (Crosstown), Bloomington Ave (Crosstown), and Portland (Crosstown) have been redecked or replaced in the last 10 years, or will be shortly. Penn and Lyndale 494 bridges were also stroadified in the last 10 years. 66th Street is being rebuilt from the ground up in 2016-2017. Portland Avenue (south of 66th) will also be fully rebuilt next year. Nicollet and Penn will be resurfaced this year, and Nicollet is likely to be fully reconstructed in about 2018. 90% of Richfield's residential streets are going to be resurfaced by 2021 as part of a city-wide mill and overlay.Sorry. Did not mean to offend. The homes themselves are nice. I was referring to the condition of the street itself, and some of the commercial areas that look blighted, not the houses.
And we'll be adding... <1 miles of sidewalk. You can't win 'em all, apparently.
By the way, the city is soliciting input on the 66th Street reconstruction here: http://richfieldconnect.mindmixer.com/t ... on-project. We could use support for one-way cycletracks from people who use the street. Support for on-street parking in commercial areas would also be helpful.
