Decision-making on the Central Corridor light rail is reaching a critical point, with the region preparing to make a 100+ year investment.
There is much at stake for the campus and the campus-area communities. Among the decisions:
* Tunnel under Washington Avenue?
* If not, what would be necessary for an at grade alternative to work?
* Is there a feasible alternative alignment through Dinkytown?
The Metropolitan Council has agreed to study the feasibility of a northern alignment, and the University has agreed to pay for that study, while the analysis of the other options continues. The University has been active in advocating for the corridor, and in the analysis of alternatives as they impact our part of the city.

Snowing and Pouring at I-35W Bridge
While fresh snow blanketed the I-35W Bridge construction site this past week, crews poured a whole lot of concrete, and the flurry of activity will continue, according to the forecast for the coming week.
Accomplishments this past week included:
* pouring concrete into the form for the stemwall at Abutment 1 (pictured above)
* excavating at Piers 2 and 3
* pouring the footing for Pier 4 northbound
* drilling and filling foundation shafts at Abutment 5
* getting started on erecting the temporary scaffolding that will support the forms for the superstructure on the south side and
* pouring the first upright section of Pier 3 southbound.

I-35W BRIDGE WEBCAM
The installation of a webcam on the roof of the U of M steam plant on the
north bank of the Mississippi provides an opportunity to keep an eye on
construction activities at the St. Anthony Falls (I-35W) Bridge site 24
hours a day. The webcam, which went live on Friday, January 4, shows a
panoramic view of the site and will archive images daily. A time-lapse
photography feature will eventually provide an opportunity to see the
construction of the entire bridge, start to finish, in rapid sequence. To
see the live webcam view, visit the MnDOT website, www.mndot.gov.
A second camera will soon be mounted to a light pole on the 10th Avenue
Bridge. The second camera will zoom in periodically on specific activities,
such as drilling shafts, pouring concrete, and lifting bridge segments into
place.
