Robert Street Corridor Luncheon
The Dakota County Regional Chamber of Commerce invites you to join us for a discussion on the proposed projects for the Robert Street Corridor on Wednesday, March 5th from 11:30am – 1:00pm at DARTS (1645 Marthaler Lane, West Saint Paul). Free to attend.
Did you know that the transitway study concludes that street cars are 12 times more expensive than bus rapid transit and will not reduce traffic?
Also, the proposed trees along Robert Street will cost an additional $5 million!
Many of these changes could have a huge impact on YOUR business, so make sure you come to this meeting to learn more about these projects and let your voice be heard!
Lunch Courtesy of: Robert Square

About the Projects
Robert Street Improvement Project
Robert Street (Trunk Highway 3) is the main north/south transportation route through the heart of the commercial business district in West Saint Paul. The project is intended to improve the entire length of Robert Street in West St. Paul in four categories:
- Infrastructure
- Safety
- Aesthetics
- Bikeway/Transit
The Robert Street Transitway Alternatives Analysis (AA) Study is the next step in the analysis of transportation needs and evaluation of transit service options in a study area extending from downtown St. Paul in southern Ramsey County to Rosemount in Dakota County and from the Mississippi River from the east to the Minnesota River in the west. This effort will expand upon a 2008 Feasibility Study which outlined the existing and emerging transportation needs within the corridor, potential transit modes and alignments, and the estimated costs and benefits of several potential implementations of new transit service within the corridor including bus rapid transit, light rail and express bus options.
