Get Involved: Shaping the Future of Transportation in Southeast Minnesota
During the initial feasibility stage, the project team will be working closely with Southeast Minnesota organizations, businesses, and governments to determine organizational feasibility. As SE MN Together moves into the next phase of our transportation initiative, we will invite stakeholders from across the region to get involved. Your participation is crucial in ensuring the success and sustainability of our efforts to improve transportation and connectivity in Southeast Minnesota.
Whether you're a business owner, community leader, student or employee, your voice is essential in this collaborative effort. If you're interested in learning more about this study and how you can be involved, email project manager Joel Young at joel.young@cedausa.com or sign up for our mailing list.
