URBAN BELT LINE CORRIDOR PLANS

Corridor studies related to the development of the proposed urban arterial beltline

What is the Urban Beltline?

For the past several decades, Saint Cloud APO member jurisdictions have discussed the possibility of constructing an urban arterial beltline around the core metro. This proposed four-lane, at-grade, divided minor arterial roadway would be designed to divert through traffic off the principal arterial corridors (MN 15, MN 23, CSAH 75) as well as connect two vital freight corridors — I-94 and US 10 — which are currently separated by the Mississippi River.
