This bill (S.F. No. 2355) relates to transportation capital investment in Minnesota and specifically extends the availability of funding for the reconstruction of U.S. Highway 8 in Chisago County. It amends a previous law to allow the bond sale authorization and appropriation of funds for the project to remain available until December 31, 2029.

The reconstruction project includes: - Predesign, design, engineering, and rebuilding of U.S. Highway 8 from Karmel Avenue in Chisago City to Interstate 35. - Adding pedestrian and bike trails along and across the highway. - Potential expansion of certain segments to four lanes. - Construction or reconstruction of frontage and backage roads. - Realignment of local roads to consolidate, remove, and relocate access points to U.S. Highway 8. - Ensuring that the portion of the project funded by these bonds complies with regulations for trunk highway bond proceeds.

This bill ensures that funding for the project remains available, giving additional time for completion.
