Northside Greenway- Funded Engagement Opportunities

Temporary North Minneapolis Greenway Demonstration

This summer, you will be able to experience a temporary "pop-up" demonstration of what the Greenway concept could look like in North Minneapolis.  

For more information on the Northside Greenway, check out our blog or go to the City website.

With the demonstration being installed this summer, there is a unique and exciting opportunity to engage the community around the pop up greenway, and what their reactions are to the concept.  There are information sessions, grants for individuals wanting to do engagement, and grants for organizations.  Please read further for more information!

University Ave for Everyone Photo Campaign

20160406_132327.jpgThe month of April began not with a bang, but with a very cold windy day. April 1 was the UMN Bikeways for Everyone Workgroup’s first of four tabling events. All through the month of April we have been holding tabling events around the U of M campus to raise awareness of the need for a protected bikeway along University Ave. Instead of just a regular petition, we decided to make this a photo campaign. We thought that having each person take a picture with the sign would make the campaign more personal – these are real people with real smiles, and real lives that deserve to be protected on the road.
