Description

Press release from Ramsey County Government: March 28, 2022 Ramsey County Public Works will lead or support numerous construction and maintenance project across the county during the upcoming 2022 roadwork season. In January, the board of commissioners approved $52 million in funding for roadway, bridge, trail and sidewalk construction in 2022. This year's projects will improve travel and commerce throughout communities in the east metro and improve safety conditions for motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians and transit users. Most projects will begin in the summer. Updates will be provided online and via an interactive map as construction season progresses — including detours and timelines. Subscriptions for project updates via email and text message are also available. View the project list View projects on interactive map. Ramsey County Public Works will resurface about 5.5 miles of county roads as part of its 2022 maintenance program, including portions of Jackson Street, Randolph Avenue and St. Paul Avenue. These projects typically include pedestrian crossing, traffic signal and pedestrian curb ramp improvements. Wheelage tax revenues — a $20 charge collected with annual vehicle registration — allow the Public Works department to keep pace with what had been a growing backlog of road segments in pressing need of repair.
