  • Moving a bottleneck up the list? Local officials are pushing for additional ramps at the stoplight-riddled junction of Hwy. 169 and I-494; Strib story here.
  • Central Corridor isn’t dead: So says Steve Berg in this MinnPost post.
  • The Lowry Avenue Bridge is another story: It could close for good as early as this summer; Strib story here.
  • And the Stillwater bridge got stuck, then unstuck: A news brief and a graphic are here.
  • Speaking of Stillwater: If you drive your car into the water, here are a few tips on what to do.
  • Speaking of Washington County: It approved the transit tax and is looking ahead; a story is here.

Also, in a staggeringly overdue development, the Roadguy blog now has the capability of posting YouTube videos (suddenly it’s 2006). So if you’ve got a transportation-related favorite, send it along. Relatedly, Roadguy plans to put his newly acquired Flip video cam to use in short order. Stay tuned.
