Hiawatha Line construction update
Crews are completing a yearlong construction project along the Hiawatha Line.
The bulk of the project involved lengthening platforms at 10 of the Hiawatha Line’s 19 stations to accommodate three-car trains. Crews will open the extended platforms on a rolling basis, starting with Fort Snelling Station.
Here is the schedule:
• Monday, Jan. 11, Fort Snelling Station
• Wednesday, Jan. 13, 28th Avenue Station
• Thursday, Jan. 14, Bloomington Central Station
• Friday, Jan. 22, VA Medical Center Station
• Wednesday, Jan. 27, 50th Street/Minnehaha Park Station
• Sunday, Jan. 31, 46th Street Station
• Monday, Feb. 8, 38th Street Station
• Saturday, Feb. 13, Franklin Avenue Station
• Tuesday, Feb. 16, Cedar-Riverside Station
Note: This schedule is subject to change.
Once an extended platform opens, trains will pull up to serve the far end of the platform. You may need to board your train in a new location on the platform, depending on the direction of your train and the location of the platform extension.
The platform extension project at Government Plaza Station was finished in November.
Thank you for your patience and thank you for riding with us.
