Be Prepared for Snow Emergency
City crews have been plowing and treating streets to keep them drivable. Now that a snow emergency has been declared, parking restrictions will take effect beginning at 9 pm tonight, so City crews can thoroughly plow over 1000 miles of City streets from curb to curb.
When a Snow Emergency is declared, parking rules go into effect so plows can clear the streets and fire trucks, police cars, ambulances and other vehicles can then get around and park. Plowing the streets completely requires vehicles parked on streets to move. It’s in everyone’s best interest to follow the parking rules so plows can do the best job possible, and folks can avoid a ticket and tow.

46th Street Redesign Update
The City of Minneapolis Department of Public Works held a community meeting March 4 to share the final design for 46th St W between Lyndale and Dupont Avenues.
The design concept was prepared based on the feedback received from multiple stakeholder groups and addresses neighborhood safety concerns by shortening the pedestrian crossing distances, enhancing pedestrian pavement markings (zebra stripes) at Bryant, and placement of a larger stop sign closer to the travel lane.
It was also suggested at the meeting to extend pedestrian level lighting on W 46th St between Lyndale and Aldrich and Colfax and Dupont. Residents in the influence area of proposed lighting will receive a petition from the City in the next few weeks. The petition requires 70% to opt out. It is important that residents in the influence area respond and return the petition. Choosing not to respond to the petition will not be counted as a no vote.
The project, with construction scheduled to begin this summer, will include full removal of the existing street, subgrade correction, new pavement, curb and gutter, driveways, an advisory bike facility, sidewalk as needed, bumpouts and utility work as needed.

Safety Main Concern for 46th Street Design
The City of Minneapolis Public Works is planning to reconstruct 46th St W
between Lyndale and Dupont Ave during the 2013 construction season. The project
will include full removal of the existing street, sub-grade construction, new
pavement, curb and gutter and driveways. Sidewalks, street scape elements and
utility works will be done as needed. The project will also potentially include
adding a bike lane and removing parking on one side.
The City hosted an informational meeting of neighbors to provide updates and take comments and feedback on the project on January 16.
The biggest outcome of the meeting was the concern for pedestrian safety in an already congested and dangerous area. To read more about the meeting comments and concerns, click on 46th Street Design Meeting Minutes.
