In the fall of 2023, we will begin doing landscaping work along I-35W between 106th St. in Bloomington and Black Dog Rd. in Burnsville. This project includes planting various trees to beautify the highway following the I-35W bridge replacement project completed in 2019.

The survey to provide input on the types of trees planted is now closed.
