Ramsey County Regional Railroad Authority/Minneapolis Diagonal Trail

I was walking the Minneapolis Diagonal Trail near the Stinson Triangle for the first time a few weeks ago, and when we reached Ramsey County I noticed signs posted saying the trail was being evaluated for a future transit project. How old are these signs? What project was/is being evaluated? I can't...

Re: Public Transit News and Current Happenings
