Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Washington County Public Works Department is issuing this request for proposals (RFP) to determine the feasibility and alignment of an arterial roadway connection from County State Aid Highway 19 (Keats Ave S/Innovation Road) at MnDOT Trunk Highway 61 to Lower Grey Cloud Island. There is currently a lack of east-west arterial roadways in this growing part of the county. Anticipated growth in this area includes a potential railroad freight terminal and a new regional park. The Southwest Washington County Arterial Study is intended to engage local stakeholders, community leaders, business owners, and city staff, determine future traffic needs, determine the role of future roadways in the area while identifying any required improvements to the Highway 61 and CSAH 19 (Keats Ave S/Innovation Road) interchange. This study will be managed by Washington County, and will seek input and involvement from the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), the City of Cottage Grove, the City of St. Paul Park, and Grey Cloud Island Township, and South Washington Watershed District.
