This is a group of photos of MnDOT's MnROAD facility. MnROAD is a pavement test track made up of various research materials and pavements owned and operated by the Minnesota Department of Transportation, working with its partners. Located near Albertville, Minnesota, MnROAD works in conjunction with MnDOT's Materials & Road Research Lab. It finds ways to make roads last longer, perform better, cost less to build and maintain, be built faster, and have minimal impact on the environment.
This is a group of photos of MnDOT's 35W@94: Downtown to Crosstown construction project. The project began August 17, 2017, was completed September 10, 2021, and involved a 2.5 mile stretch of I-35W between 43rd St. and 15th St. in Minneapolis.
Included are the winners from MnDOT's annual Name a Snowplow contest that began in 2021. One snowplow of each year's winners is assigned to one of MnDOT's eight districts.
