Holyoke Avenue – Highview Avenue Improvements

The City of Lakeville is beginning a preliminary engineering study of the Holyoke Avenue – Highview Avenue corridor between 202nd Street (County Road 50) and Dodd Boulevard (County Road 9). The results of the study will aid the City in establishing the timing for the improvements, design recommendations and programming of funds for the future construction.

In recent years, this corridor has seen increased growth and development and the existing roadway design and speed limits are perceived as a barrier between residential areas and community amenities. The engineering study provides the opportunity to collect public feedback on the improvements, modernize the roadway and integrate safety and accessibility improvements to better serve users today and into the future. 

Project Goals

  • Engage the public to ensure expectations and values are identified 
  • Right-size the roadway for efficient movement of vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians now and in the future
  • Evaluate and improve roadway and intersection safety and operations, including speed limit recommendations
  • Improve pedestrian access and safety along and across Holyoke Avenue – Highview Avenue

Project Timeline

  • January – March 2023: Collect and analyze data on existing conditions
  • March 14, 2023: Open House No. 1: Gather feedback from the community on challenges and opportunities of the road today
  • April – July 2023: Prepare design alternatives
  • July 2023: Share design alternatives with the community for feedback
  • August – November 2023: Identify and present preferred design alternative with the community
  • Winter 2023: Finalize preferred design and study recommendations
  • 2024: City will evaluate timing of construction with 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program development
