Omnibus spending bill includes millions for MN projects

Twenty-two Minnesota projects will receive nearly $30 million in funding from an appropriations bill that won final approval from the U.S. House of Representatives Thursday, Dec. 10. The appropriations bill includes the following local projects:
  • $1.2 million for the Isanti pedestrian bridge project, planned to safely take foot traffic over Hwy. 65 south of Co. Rd. 5.
  • $500,000 for the Northern Lights Express project, planned to restore passenger rail service to the Duluth-Minneapolis corridor.
  • $400,000 for the Cambridge-Isanti Bike-Walk Trail, the long-anticipated, recreational pathway planned to parallel the BNSF rail line in connecting Isanti and Cambridge. See more in Isanti County News story.
