MnDOT completed a planning study for an 18-mile stretch of Hwy 7 from St. Bonifacius to Hopkins.
The Department conducted this study to understand travel experiences of those walking, biking and driving on Hwy 7, identify the needs in the study area, and inform future transportation safety and mobility improvements on Hwy 7. The recommendations from this study will inform the design of a pavement resurfacing project planned for 2029 from the Hennepin/Carver County line in St. Bonifacius to Christmas Lake Rd. in Shorewood/Greenwood. Over the past two years, MnDOT worked with local partners and heard from community members to understand transportation needs and identify opportunities for future improvements.
