Minnetonka Boulevard - City of St. Louis Park

The Regional Trail and Bikeway System - Trails and bikeways are community resources that provide recreational and transportation options and
connections between cities, neighborhoods, land uses and recreational sites. Hennepin County, Three Rivers Park District and the cities of Minnetonka,
Hopkins and St. Louis Park have all completed master plans for trail and bikeway systems that intersect or run nearby to the Minnetonka Boulevard
(County Road 5) corridor and together they represent an extensive network of local and regional routes connecting Minnetonka Blvd. to all parts of
these cities.
Another significant opportunity is the potential to relate these trails to the Minneapolis “Grand Rounds” network, creating a trail that extends all the
way from Lake Minnetonka to the Mississippi River. To accomplish this, it would require the completion of a trail segment along Minnetonka Blvd.
between the intersections of the Lake Minnetonka LRT Regional Trail, near Shady Oak Road and the North Cedar Lake Regional Trail, near Aquila
Avenue. This would require upgrading on-road bike lanes between these points or creating a new off-road trail link.
