Fridley BNSF Northtown Yard bridge and road extension bond issue and appropriation

SF 1305 appropriates $6 million in state bond funds to the city of Fridley for planning, designing, and engineering a road extension (57th Avenue NE) and bridge over the BNSF Northtown Yard. The project connects Main Street NE to East River Road in Fridley, including necessary public utilities and bridge structures. This state funding serves as a required match to leverage approximately $24 million in federal funds for the full project. The bill authorizes the sale of up to $6 million in state bonds to cover this appropriation.
