Re: Bottineau LRT (Blue Line Extension)
Or the county could just admit they screwed up, offer BNSF the crystal connection they want, and move on. If the railroad still won't budge after that then it looks far worse on them.

Re: Gold Line BRT (Gateway Corridor)
FTA drops gold line ranking to "medium low", imperiling federal funding unless changes are made. Article specifically mentions bolstering the park-and-ride elements.

I mean doesn't this just duplicate the purpose of the stone arch bridge, just from a worse viewing angle?

Sounds like this is close to moving forward, however no mention of the 22 story tower, only a 6 floor affordable housing component and a parking ramp.

Re: Labeling the Transit System
The way they label transfer stations seems to be pretty inconsistent as well. For example all of the downtown minneapolis LRT stops are given a white bar, but nothing for the bloomington/airport stations where the blue and riverview interline except for the MOA. Same for pretty much everything in do...

Re: Federal Reserve Riverfront Parking Ramp
Doesn't downtown zoning still prevent any new single-use parking structures, which this would clearly be? I don't get all the angst here when this is clearly going to get denied by zoning and planning. Or is the fed somehow exempt from this.

Re: 2019-2020 MN Legislative Session / Budget / Bonding
No, it's for funding suburban road expansion. All gas tax is constitutionally "used solely for highway purposes". Motor vehicle sales taxes are what get split 60/40% in favor of highways vs transit, but they make up a smaller funding source than the gas tax. This is a good source for the complicated...

Re: E Line ABRT
Why not option 7, but after West Lake station take Excelsior over to France ave. Then it can hit all the nodes from the other options while providing more connectivity between the LRT and Uptown.

It's why I wait for a Strib article before reacting to things like this.Headline: CRISIS!
Article: This is a normal and expected situation.

Re: U.S. Bank Stadium
People are forgetting that MSP was a contender for hosting the college football national championship the last time around it was bid. Ultimately we lost to a few no brainer sites like Atlanta and Phoenix but I would expect us to make a bid the next time it comes up in 2025.

Just put it on the ballot and let voters pick the name from a limited selection. A bunch of liberal busybodies may want to change the name but that doesn't mean everyone has to go along with what they pick to replace it.
