There's also a third segment, which would add an interchange at Bunker Lake Blvd.

I'm with you on this.What is it with businesses and parking? If you make the sidewalk outside of your shop larger, isn't it more inviting? Is it more important to get business from people living in some far-flung exurb than in the neighborhood?? I fail to see their perspective.
Love that there support for transit lanes, but once again MPLS is showing that they don't support transit and not adding lanes to reconstruction proposals.Cedar Ave slated for Reconstruction between 24h St and Lake St in 2026.

I think they changed it last minute. I was looking at the plans earlier this year and I’m confident it didn’t say transit/parking.Have full time bus lanes quietly been removed from the First & Hennepin project?
I could have sworn the design layout that was linked on the project site was "2023". Now it's "2024" and the layout shows TRANSIT PRIORITY LANE/PARKING and references part-time transit priority lanes. Am I imagining this or has it changed in the last couple months?

If this did go the way of Hennepin South and they are just part time, I hope the times for bus-only are generous. I've also thought about dynamic signage so that they could enforce bus-only during high traffic events downtown.I sure hope they haven't changed it last minute with no input.
The posted layout still shows "BUS ONLY" road markings, so i could be just an oversight and these are still planned to be bus only.
But the big text box that reads "ADDITION OF PART-TIME TRANSIT PRIORITY LANE" makes me think we've been bamboozled.
If I were able to be mad about this nonsense anymore, I'd be furious, but this is just par for the course at this point.
