District 6 Freight Plan
MnDOT invites the public to learn about the District 6 Freight Plan and provide input by visiting the virtual open house and taking the survey by Oct. 20, 2021.
A District 6 Freight Plan is being developed to analyze long term freight needs of the region’s transportation system. This includes highways, roads, railroads, waterways and air cargo. The plan will provide a clear understanding of the region’s freight system, characteristics of local industry system usage and freight needs and issues.
Workers' Memorial Day 2021
MnDOT and its partners gathered virtually on April 28 for our annual remembrance of workers in District 6 and elsewhere who’ve been killed on the job. It’s a reminder for all of us of the responsibility we have for driving safely, especially during construction season. A recording of the event is available for people to view.
