Intra-regional corridors

This map reflects the priority of transportation corridors outside the Twin Cities metropolitan area as designated by the Minnesota Department of Transportation. As a result of a Mn/DOT study completed in 2000, these designations reflect the importance of each corridor to the movement of people and goods throughout the state. Higher-priority intra-regional corridors tend to connect major regional trade centers, while regional corridors connect areas with a lower amount of economic activity. This relative importance is indicated in the design specifications of the corridor (e.g., high-priority intra-regional corridors are expected to maintain a higher average speed than regional corridors), as well as the level and intensity of improvement and maintenance along the corridor.
