The City will reconstruct Hennepin Ave. between W. Lake St. and Douglas Ave.
Construction will be phased over 2-years. Phase 1 will be from Lake St W to 26th St occurring in 2024. Phase 2 will be from 26th St to Douglas Ave occurring in 2025.
The project is an opportunity to update Hennepin Avenue to meet the public’s current and future needs. The new, multimodal design improves space for people walking, riding transit, biking and driving. The layout also provides space for enhanced stations being built for the future METRO E Line.
- Hennepin Ave. is substantially complete and Re-opening !!
- Major construction activities are reaching completion and Hennepin Ave is set to re-open on Friday October 31st, 2025.
- The roadway will be open to 2-way traffic, bike lanes and sidewalks are open.
- Remaining work will consist of Sanitary Sewer lining and puchlist items will be taking place over the next month or so.
