Community Project Funding: I-94 Expansion
Funding Requested: $3,000,000
Value to the Taxpayer:
The completion of lane expansion from Rogers to St. Michael has already resulted in a 55% reduction in total travel time. Strategic improvements are necessary to ensure that the enhancements to key regional connections are made possible for those living near or traveling through the I-94 West Corridor.
Project Summary:
Background:
- The capacity expansion projects and additional transportation infrastructure upgrades along the corridor are crucial for attracting needed economic development, resulting in economic growth and local tax benefits.
- This project will also increase safety, as crash and severity rates along the corridor are higher than the statewide average, and the segment averages 1.4 accidents per day.
