4th Street North & South Reconstruction
The City of Minneapolis will be reconstructing 0.6 miles of 4th St between 2nd Ave N and 4th Ave S. The design for the 4th St Reconstruction Project is complete and road reconstruction is anticipated to begin in Spring of 2021.
Project status
Background
The project will include reconstruction from building front to building front with full removal of the existing street, curb and gutter, driveways, and sidewalk. The design for the reconstructed 4th Street includes new roadway pavement, better pedestrian crossings, and a new protected bike facility. View the final 4th St S roadway layout.
Goals
The goals of the project are to:
- Improve the condition of the infrastructure for pedestrians, bicycles, transit, and automobiles
- Improve pedestrian safety, mobility and accessibility through improved crosswalks, and an expanded pedestrian realm
- Improve and enhance the one-way bike lane on 4th Street
- Provide for transit service
- Add more trees and plantings
