Saint Paul Public Works anticipates that construction work of the Capital City Bikeway on the north side of Kellogg Boulevard from St. Peter Street to Jackson Street will start in July 2023.
The integration of this new 2-way separated bikeway will require reconstruction of the existing Kellogg Boulevard sidewalk, roadway, and center medians. The project will also include improvements to drainage, underground utilities, traffic signals, lighting, and replacement of the median trees.
In preparation for summer construction, tree removal is tentatively scheduled to start March 21 and may take until the end of March. The eastbound lane of Kellogg Boulevard along the center median may be closed for tree removal work. Please follow all posted signs.
Tree removal is necessary because the new layout of the roadway and bikeway reshapes the medians where there are currently trees. Other trees in the area will be impacted by the construction activities and must also be removed. As part of the project, a similar number of new trees will be planted in the new medians and along the bike path.
Utility work may also be occurring along Kellogg Boulevard before July. For specific questions, timing, or concerns about utility work, please contact the utilities directly.
