Minnesota’s Great River Road Corridor Management Plan Public Open House

The Mississippi River Parkway Commission of Minnesota and the Minnesota Department of Transportation, in collaboration with local governments, chambers of commerce, tourism-related river resource managers and other partners are developing a new Corridor Management Plan for the Great River Road. This project will document today’s byway attributes and suggest strategies to help the Mississippi River Parkway Commission of Minnesota and its partners provide and promote a superior byway travel experience and improve the quality of life locally, while maintaining the archaeological, cultural, historic, natural, recreational and scenic intrinsic resources that enrich it. It also will guide the future work of the Mississippi River Parkway Commission of Minnesota including priorities for investment and marketing.
