  • Improve pedestrian and bike access in alignment with Ramsey County's All-Abilities Transportation Network plan. Pedestrian facilities will help connect users to parks, schools, churches and residential neighborhoods.
  • Replace the aging pavement.
  • Improve stormwater management.
  • Replace aging city utilities.
