Senate Bill S.F. No. 994 proposes to allocate $1.5 million from Minnesota's general fund in fiscal year 2026 for the initial engineering work of an interchange project on Interstate Highway 94 near the Lake Burgen rest area in Douglas County. This project will consider using the existing infrastructure of either Douglas County State Aid Highway 23 or 17. The choice between these two highways will be based on anticipated local growth over the next 50 years and consultations with local officials to ensure the most cost-effective and suitable option is selected. The funding is a one-time allocation and must be used by June 30, 2029.
