MNDOT: It's rare to be ear-marked for ADA project Mike Christopherson Crookston Times It’s “very rare” for $4 million to be earmarked for a “stand-alone” Americans With Disabilities Act project like the one proposed for 2024 by the State of Minnesota to make Crookston’s sidewalks along the U.S. Highway 2 corridor downtown ADA-compliant, the Minnesota Department of Transportation’s manager of the proposed project told City leaders this week. But if the Crookston City Council decides not to move forward on the project, MnDOT’s Matt Upgren said, that’s their prerogative. Asked by Ward 1 Council Member Kristie Jerde what would happen if the council decided not to pursue the sidewalk replacement project, which will likely result in reduced motorized traffic lanes and/or reduced parking on Main and Broadway (U.S. Highway 2) downtown, Upgren said the only thing that would likely happen is traffic signals along the downtown corridor would be replaced because the current ones are near the end of their life.
