Minneapolis, Minnesota

Open Streets Minneapolis temporarily closes major thoroughfares to car traffic and opens them up for walking, biking, skating, and other active transportation. One goal is giving Minneapolis residents an opportunity to rethink streets as public space. On this day, from 11am to 5pm, Lake Street was closed between Elliot and Minnehaha and Minnehaha Avenue was closed between Lake and Godfrey Parkway.

Minneapolis, Minnesota

Around 75 people gathered in downtown Minneapolis to protest against Republican President Donald Trump. Protesters decried GOP President Trump's actions against immigrants, Muslims, the poor and the LGBTQ community. They called for Trump's resignation because the impeachment process takes too long.

For a friend who is moving away. :( Sadness. The hearts are all her favorite bars and clubs in town.
Used KG-Chart LE to render a jpg map into a cross-stitch chart. Goooo freeware!
Chart of the river is over here.

A theoretical option for reconstruction the Hennepin Ave/Lyndale Ave confluence near downtown Minneapolis. MnDOT suggested a signalized traffic circle here in their 2007 downtown freeway study, but I think a more normalized (if small) city block would be more appropriate. Traffic volumes are such to where three of the four corners (excluding the northwest corner at Summit Ave) would need to be signalized, but these could be simple two-phase signals, with all three signal locations coordinated. The block (which I have dubbed "Lowry Square") would be 3 lanes on each side, as would Lyndale Ave to the north.
This proposal provides a significant amount of room for bicycle/pedestrian infrastructure, open space/parkland, and redevelopment.
The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) requires a striped centerline on urban streets with a traffic volume over 6,000 vehicles per day (vpd), and recommends a centerline when traffic volumes are over 4,000 vpd.
This map shows centerline striping requirements for streets in the city of Minneapolis, MN, based on the most recent (generally 2012) traffic counts available. Streets shown in green have volumes less than 4,000 vpd, and do not require a striped centerline. Yellow streets are in the "recommended" category, while red streets have high enough volumes to require a centerline. White streets are neighborhood/residential streets or streets where traffic volume data is unavailable.
