Together with long range planning of the Hwy 7 Corridor Study, MnDOT has a major pavement rehabilitation project in 2029. The resurfacing will occur from the Hennepin/Carver County line to just east of Mill Street in Shorewood.
The 2029 scope currently includes:
- Signal replacement at CSAH 92 and TH 41
- Roundabouts at CSAH 13 and Minnewashta Parkway
- Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB) at Eureka Road
- Trail connections between CSAH 13 and the Lake Minnetonka LRT Trail
- Mill Street Bridge replacement
- Signal replacements at TH 41 and Christmas Lake Road
- Access modifications from TH 41 to Oak Street
The 2029 project is currently scoped at approximately $45 million, including the Mill Street bridge replacement. This is $20-30 million less than the estimated cost for all of the corridor study recommendations. Additional funding would be needed from other funding mechanisms, such as state bonding, local funds, grants, etc.
Additional scoping discussions and decisions for the 2029 pavement preservation project will take place in early 2026. Any required funding efforts would occur in 2029, and all scope modifications must be finalized by the fall of 2026.
Residents can reach out to City staff at 952-960-7900 or cityhall@shorewoodmn.gov with questions or comments.
