Dale Street Safety Conversion

Contact us

Ramsey County, in collaboration with the cities of Roseville and Saint Paul, is working to redesign Dale Street between Highway 36 and north of Como Avenue. This redesign will include a 4-to-3 lane conversion of Dale Street to reduce the frequency and severity of crashes occurring along the roadway.

The roadway will be resurfaced and restriped and signals will be replaced or updated along the corridor. The early phases of the design process will include engagement with the community to explore additional pedestrian and bicycle enhancements.

Selected contractor: Park Construction Company
