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.
