Suggest projects for MnDOT's Corridors of Commerce program Page 2 of 3 <br /> 1. Metro Capacity Improvement <br /> 2. Interregional Corridor Capacity Improvement <br /> 3. Statewide Freight Bottlenecks <br /> 4. Main Street Enhancements <br /> 5. Freight System Preservation <br /> Attached to this letter are descriptions and anticipated funding <br /> levels for the categories of Metro Capacity Improvement, <br /> Interregional Corridor Capacity Improvement, and Statewide <br /> Freight Bottlenecks. We strongly encourage interested <br /> stakeholders to suggest projects that in your view would meet the <br /> criteria of one or more of these categories. <br /> We recognize that there are more deserving projects than <br /> available revenue. This initial bond funding is intended to serve as <br /> a "down payment" on a larger ongoing program. MnDOT will <br /> consider all eligible projects in whole or in segments for funding <br /> from the initial $300 million using the selection criteria included in <br /> the category descriptions. <br /> For the Main Street Enhancements category, MnDOT will <br /> separately solicit local partners to identify eligible projects. The <br /> Freight System Preservation category is included as a placeholder. <br /> Although no Freight System Preservation projects are expected to <br /> be included as part of the $300 million bond package, this would <br /> be a significant part of the ongoing program should additional <br /> funding be identified. <br /> The deadline for comments is October 16, 2013 at 5:00 PM. <br /> For further information and to provide your input, please go <br /> to www.mndot.gov/corridorsofcommerce or call Matt Shands at <br /> .. 651-366-4893. <br /> http://campaign.r2O.constantcontact.com/render?llr=pehis8bab&v=00 l u9MKVAvAK l xj... 10/03/2013 <br />
