Minnesota’s Transportation Investments Generation Economic Recover (TIGER) II Discretionary Grant Submittal
Livability and Sustainability through Integration of Complete Streets Practices in Minnesota
In 2010, Mn/DOT and its local partners applied for funding for six Complete Streets projects through the US DOT’s Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery II program. Although these projects did not receive TIGER II funding, Minnesota will continue to move towards projects that promote livability, sustainability, economic vitality and environmental health. Developing the vision for these projects laid the groundwork for future projects in every corner of Minnesota. Learn more about Mn/DOT's sustainability initiative
