Commuter Rail Gets Support from Outstate Minnesota Mayor...

Saint Cloud, MN, Mayor David Kleis and other supporters are lobbying for support from his city and other surrounding communities to be connected to the Northstar Commuter Rail Project. The Northstar Corridor from the St. Cloud area to downtown Minneapolis is one of the fastest growing transportation corridors in the state.

Commuters from the St. Cloud area who are traveling on either I-94, I-494 or Highway 10 to or from the Twin Cities can spend hours stuck in traffic during their rush hour commute.St. Cloud, with the support of legislation and the surrounding communities, could have an opportunity for its commuters to avoid the headache of rush hour traffic.
