On Sunday, June 7, residents and neighbors across the Twin Cities gathered on Lyndale Avenue South for Open Streets Lyndale. The twenty-block stretch from 22nd Street to 42nd Street came alive—and not because of car traffic. Attendees engaged with Our Streets’ advocacy efforts and shared what transportation issues affect their communities and envisioned what a transportation system built for everyone would look like.
Our Streets organized and hosted “Can We Talk? A panel, dinner, and community discussion about the past, present, and future of I-94” at Hallie Q. Brown Community Center and on Thursday, April 16.
Support streets for people and have fun doing it. Host your own fundraiser to support our organization. This is an effective way to celebrate the transportation initiatives you care about while supporting our organization financially!
St. Paul residents joyfully gathered for the 94 Stories Time Machine event, where they listened to their neighbors share stories conveying their experiences of living near the I-94 corridor.
Last week, the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) announced their virtual Policy Advisory Committee (PAC) meeting on December 9. Open to the public, this meeting will discuss the upcoming public comment period for the Rethinking I-94 project and will have a portion dedicated to public input. This tight turnaround is not conducive to engaging with the communities impacted most by the highway.
