What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center requested the Minnesota Department of Transportation study alternative options for the Highway 252 and Interstate 94 project. MnDOT had previously selected a four-lane freeway conversion of Highway 252 as its preferred alternative, which would change the road from a signalized highway to a freeway with two lanes in each direction.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The project involves converting Highway 252 into a freeway, a controversial proposal MnDOT has maintained since years ago. The department anticipates this preferred alternative would reduce serious crashes by 25% and overall crashes by 41%. The request for alternatives keeps the "no build" option, which avoids the freeway conversion, still under consideration.
