Public Meeting: Weigh in on new SW Light Rail line linking Eden Prairie to Downtown MPLS

Open houses are planned for August to release the evaluation results for the three potential Southwest LRT lines. The evaluation includes ridership forecasts, cost estimates, cost-effectiveness calculations, transit mobility measures, and an inventory of potentially affected critical environmental resources. This information will be used to select the preferred LRT route, which is called the Locally Preferred Alternative or LPA.
