Metropolitan Council and Hennepin County officials in Minneapolis are soliciting public comment on a draft route modification report for the proposed Metro Blue Line extension project.

The report describes the process, public input and technical evaluation that will inform the recommendation of a community-supported route, project officials said in a press release.

Comments are due Jan. 25, 2022. Final evaluation and route recommendations are expected to be released in spring 2022. The project will advance to an environmental review and further engineering after the route recommendation is made.

The project calls for extending Metro Transit's Blue Line light-rail service from Target Field Station in Minneapolis northwest to Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, with stops along the way.
