The City will reconstruct Hennepin Ave. between W. Lake St. and Douglas Ave. Construction will be phased over two years.
- Phase 1 will be from Lake St W to 26th St occurring in 2024.
- Phase 2 of the project is scheduled for 2025, covering the area between 26th St to Douglas Ave.
- Utility Construction will continue on Phase 1 of the Hennepin S. Reconstruction Project from Lake St to 26th St. This work will continue throughout 2023 and into 2024.
- Current Utility work consists of Center-Point Energy installing new gas mains on both sides of the corridor and installing new service connections.

-
Cross streets will at times be reduced to 1-lane.
