Public invited to help shape the future of Highway 27 in east Little Falls
ST. CLOUD, Minn. – The Minnesota Department of Transportation invites the public to share ideas about the future of Highway 27 in east Little Falls at two community open house-style meetings on Nov. 19.
Highway 27 is an important route connecting schools, businesses, shopping, eateries and other community destinations in east Little Falls. MnDOT is studying how people use the corridor today, whether they drive, walk, or bike, to help guide plans for a 2032 project to resurface or reconstruct segments of the highway, update traffic signals and improve sidewalks and pedestrian crossings.
Project team members will be available to listen, answer questions, discuss potential design concepts and gather your insight.
