The Highway 55 coalition's mission is to secure right-of-way and related infrastructure improvements on the 40 mile segment of Highway 55 between I-494 in Plymouth to the western city limits of Annandale to increase safety, add capacity, add additional lanes, manage access control and add transit service where appropriate.
We invite you to get involved as every voice counts in our mission to improve the Highway 55 corridor by planning for the future. On our website you'll find various pages to educate you on the issues at hand, the goals of the coalition and the role you can play in shaping the outcome.
Hwy 55 Coalition Spotlighted by the Lake Minnetonka Communications Commission
Priority Project - Hwy 55 from County Road 118 (Arrowhead Drive) in the City of Medina to County Road 19 in Corcoran.
In 2024 the Minnesota legislature, with strong support from our local elected officials, secured $2 million in funding for environmental documentation to advance the safety and mobility improvements on Hwy 55 from County Road (CR) 118 to CR 19.
Long-term improvements are greatly supported by Coalition membership and communities along the corridor as it provides for safe and efficient movement of goods, services, and people to support local and regional commerce.
The Coalition will continue to pursue funding opportunities for construction, right-of-way, and engineering.
Thank you to the Minnesota Legislature! The funding that was secured for Hwy 55 will advance environmental documentation and provide a detailed analysis of the corridor.
