Since 1992, our organization has alongside our community to help shape how people move through downtown Mpls and beyond. This graphic shows a few highlights from that work over the last 10 years. We’re proud of what’s been accomplished and thankful to everyone who helped make it happen. 💚

For all walkers and bike riders ❗️ Did you know there’s a tool that lets you check whether your Mpls route is plowed (or snowy, if that’s your thing) before you head out? Check out the Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board’s Snow Event Requester: snow-event-requester-minneapolisparks.hub.arcgis.com

Dec. 6 was a big day for transit in Minneapolis. 🎆 The METRO E Line officially launched! It's always fantastic to welcome new transit service, and even more so when it brings faster trips and more frequent service along the corridor. Congrats to everyone who made it happen!

Work in the service industry often means late nights and weekend shifts. Commuting at night or when public transit runs on a reduced schedule is not everyone's cup of tea. In comes carpooling! 🚘 Watch our short video for a rundown on how carpooling works and learn more: www.abc-ramps.com/carpool

Not easy or possible for you to give up driving entirely? We get it. Still, there are other options to consider — you can mix and match. Drive (or bike!) to your closest Park & Ride, then hop on transit for the rest of your commute. It’s an easy way to 🍁 leaf traffic behind.

My family’s electric cargo bike has replaced almost all of our local car trips (& allowed us to go from 2 to 1 car). We still use our car when we need to go to the suburbs, but the bike (+ walking) works for 90% of our weekly trips.
