Winter 2012 - Midtown Greenway Coalition
A NEWSLETTER OF THE MIDTOWN GREENWAY COALITION Greenway Gets Greener CEPRO Site is Perfect for Picnics Safety always a top priority for the Coalition Last June, a cyclist attempting to use the pedestrian/bicycle crosswalk at 28th Street and the Greenway was hit by a car and seriously injured. Fortunately, he survived his injuries. Unfortunately, this wasn’t the first time someone was hit at that crossing, which is why the Coalition has been working with the City of Minneapolis to improve it. We are pleased to report that late last year, the City agreed to install new medians/islands in the crosswalk, helping to slow down traffic and increase safety considerably. The new medians will also feature native plantings, which will be maintained by volunteers from the Coalition’s new GreenSpace committee. The medians are a significantly victory for safety. Thanks to everyone who worked to support this improvement, including the City of Minneapolis Public Works staff, the Minneapolis Bicycle Coalition, members of the Minneapolis Bike Love community, and City Council Member Gary Schiff. ¶ CEPRO site is a major new green space on the Greenway. Another exciting development is the completion of the east side of the CEPRO site, located next to the Greenway between 10th and 11th Avenues. (CEPRO is the name n of the grain elevators that formerly stood on the site.) ra o This new public green space on the Greenway rc features wheelchair-accessible pathways, Co picnic tables, two gliding benches, two swinging benches, and abundant open rn o space. The site is supported by a rh partnership between Hennepin de w County, the Midtown Phillips Po Neighborhood Association, ps and the Midtown li l i Winter Wonder Walk/Ride Greenway Coalition.

As a frequent Greenway user, resident of Longfellow, and active bicyclist, the job is a dream come true! Since my first week here, barely a day goes by without someone telling me how much they LOVE the Greenway. I am inspired by the many stories I hear about people who started biking to work because of the Greenway, as well as the way the Greenway has helped bring economic development to the Lake Street/Midtown corridor. Of course, the Midtown Greenway was made possible by individual members/donors from the neighborhoods along the Greenway and beyond. They supported the Coalition’s work to get the Greenway built by public agencies, and they continue to support programs that protect and enhance it. Your membership is as important today as it ever was. The larger our coalition, the more powerful our voice is when defending and improving the Greenway. Your membership helps us: • • Continue our work to make trail crossings safer. Last October we celebrated our successful effort to get the City of Minneapolis to install new medians/islands at 28th street and the Greenway, making that trail crossing safer for bikers and pedestrians. • Continue to operate our Trail Watch safety patrol, which bikes the Greenway every night to help keep it safe. Thanks to our members and funding partners, we’re also expanding our Immigrant and Refugee Outreach Program, so that all families know that the Greenway is for everyone. New efforts to install more native gardens and public art in the Greenway are also underway. We’re also getting ready for an Alternatives Analysis of the Midtown/Lake Street corridor, which will evaluate new transit options. The Coalition has long advocated for a streetcar or trolley in the Greenway, which will improve safety, connect to the Hiawatha LRT and future Southwest LRT, and support community development. Thank YOU for supporting the Midtown Greenway and our Coalition. With your help, we are creating a world-class corridor that is great for the environment, great for health, and great for Minneapolis. See you on the Greenway! Continue the fight against the proposed high-voltage power lines in the Greenway. That fight isn’t over, and we’re gearing up for (hopefully) one last push to get the lines buried on 28th street, rather than installed overhead along the Greenway. Please visit the Coalition’s website and Facebook page for updates. Mission We empower communities to develop, improve, protect, and enjoy the Midtown Greenway as a green urban pathway to improve people’s lives. Soren R. Jensen Executive Director Misión Nosotros habilitamos a las comunidades a desarrollar, mejorar, proteger y disfrutar del sendero urbano Midtown Greenway para mejorar la vida de la gente.

In October, Metro Transit received federal funds to perform an Alternatives Analysis for the Midtown Corridor. This “AA” will examine various transit improvement options for the corridor, including bus, streetcars, and light rail for the Midtown Greenway or Lake Street. The Midtown Greenway Coalition has supported the creation of this streetcar in the Greenway since 1999. Fifteen neighborhood organizations along the Greenway adopted resolutions in support of the streetcar in 2003-04. The Coalition will be reaching out to neighborhood organizations and community groups for renewed support and for planning input for this potential streetcar line in the coming year as Metro Transit begins its study. The Midtown Greenway Coalition believes that a turfembedded Greenway streetcar would be the best option. By operating in the Greenway, a streetcar would run much faster than on Lake Street. By embedding the tracks in the grass, the streetcar would be the least obtrusive option for the Greenway, maintaining the green aesthetic for the corridor. It would also enhance safety, by bringing more people to the Greenway and having streetcar operators who could alert authorities to any issues. Recommendations to the Minneapolis Bicycle Advisory Committee The Minneapolis Bicycle Advisory Committee (MBAC) has submitted a list of bicycle infrastructure projects to the Minneapolis Department of Public Works (DPW) for further study. These projects will undergo cost estimates and feasibility study before being considered for construction. The Midtown Greenway Coalition recommended five projects be considered, and all five were included in the MBAC’s list of projects for DPW analysis! These projects are: • A 10th Avenue Bikeway between 24th and 31st Streets • Closing the LRT Trail Gap between 28th and 32nd Streets • A ramp at Pleasant Avenue to the Midtown Greenway • A bicycle route on 21st Avenue from the Midtown Greenway to 40th Street • A 38th Avenue bicycle route from 28th Street to 42nd Street in Longfellow GreenwayNewsletter_Jan2012_with bleed margin +crops.indd 3 Thank you to the MBAC for their hard work! The Midtown Greenway Coalition is hoping that many of these projects — if not all of them — will be constructed in the next few years.

There’s also a new bike/pedestrian bridge on Girard, spanning the Greenway. The project is the result of a partnership between public and private partners, including Hennepin County, the City of Minneapolis, The Ackerberg Group, and Greco Development. The Midtown Greenway Coalition provided input to the bridge and ramp design. The new ramp and bridge are expected to open in February. Please visit the Coalition’s website and Facebook page for updates. New ramp on Girard Avenue increases access to Uptown. © The Midtown Greenway Coalition has an Improvements Committee, which helps guide development and land-use on and near the Greenway.
