State Aid E-Scene

December 2021

Statutory changes related to General Obligation bond funded projects

Statutory changes were enacted to CHAPTER 363A HUMAN RIGHTS in October 2020 and June 2021 that will impact some local agencies. Specifically, statutes 363A.36 and 363A.44 were modified so that local agency capital projects that are partially or wholly funded with General Obligation (GO) bonds are subject to these requirements.

New Standard Plans

Please be aware that as of November 9, 2021 several very commonly used MnDOT Standard Plans have been updated.

PathWeb update

The 2021 season of pavement testing has been completed. This year the testing team faced different difficulties than last year when COVID-19 delayed the start of the driving season.
