UPDATE: MnDOT is hosting a virtual public meeting on November 13 from 7 - 8PM. Register to share your opposition to this destructive project.


Take action to contact project decision-makers to ask them to publicly oppose MnDOT's destructive expansion plans.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) is moving forward with plans to expand Highway 252 in Brooklyn Center and Brooklyn Park. MnDOT's proposed options would demolish dozens of homes and businesses, increase toxic pollution in communities of color, worsen safety issues and divide Brooklyn Center and Brooklyn Park from the Mississippi River. MnDOT's plans ignore years of community concerns and prioritize more car and truck traffic at the expense of the people who live, work and go to school near the highway.

Take Action!

Tell MnDOT and your elected decision-makers that demolishing homes to increase highway lanes and pollution is unacceptable.

Send an email to call on MnDOT to bring forward new non-highway alternatives that prioritize equity and improve livability in impacted neighborhoods.

This is consistent with the recommendations in MnDOT's own Equity and Health Assessment, which studied the impacts of the proposed project options on equity and environmental justice. The report raised serious concerns about the project alternatives and called for significant changes, including for non-highway options to be studied.

Your email will also be sent to relevant elected officials along the project corridor.
