 The Transportation program is a liaison between
local governments and the Minnesota Department of Transportation.
Assistance is available to help local governments address
transportation issues related to roads, transit, air, rail,
trails, etc. The program helps identify and prioritize safety
issues along highway corridors and provides staff support to a
number of transportation related committees and efforts, including
the Region Five Transportation Advisory Committee and the Area
Transportation Partnership.
Whether it's highway corridor planning, trail development, freight
movement studies, or school transportation management planning. Region
Five helps identify and solve regional transportation planning
challenges.
