Greetings Eastsiders, This Thursday, March 13 from 3:00-7:00 p.m., the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) is hosting an informational meeting for Eastside residents and business owners to share an overview on this year’s Highway 61/Arcade Street and Highway 5/East 7th Street construction project in St. Paul and Maplewood. The meeting will be held at Gustavus Adolphus Lutheran Church, located at 1669 Arcade St. in St. Paul.  The format is casual and conversational; MnDOT’s project team will be available to answer questions, provide information about the project, including traffic impacts, overall design, and construction schedule. Construction is anticipated to begin in April. For more information about the project, or to sign up for email updates on the projects’ progress, click here. I hope you can make it on Thursday. In solidarity, Jay Xiong
