The City of Minneapolis will host a meeting on the topic of rail safety during construction of the Southwest Light Rail (SWLRT) project adding 14.5 miles to the existing METRO Green Line. Residents will get information from the Southwest Light Rail Transit Project Office and Twin Cities & Western Railroad. The presentations will be followed by a Q&A period. 

By state law, this meeting is held annually while construction is occurring in the corridor.

For questions or accommodations, please contact Loren Olson, government relations representative.

The city has installed a "Barnes Dance" crossing in at Richfield Road and William Berry Parkway near Bde Maka Ska.

A Barnes Dance intersection (also called a pedestrian scramble) allows a pedestrian who pushes the call button to obtain a signal stopping all vehicle traffic so pedestrians and bikers can travel all directions, including diagonally across the intersection.
