Vernon Avenue road diet with Hennepin County funding

Summary

The city won $500,000 from Hennepin County to reconfigure Vernon Avenue from Eden Avenue to Interlachen — one lane each direction instead of two, with 10-foot shared-use paths on both sides. Design continues this year, construction in 2027, with a county overlay in 2028.
