"Minnesota lawmakers propose increased transit options for State Fair"
Two Minnesota lawmakers, Reps. Rick Hansen and Frank Hornstein, plan to introduce legislation to increase transit options for visitors to the Minnesota State Fair. Their bill would direct the State Agricultural Society to create a transportation plan in collaboration with the Metropolitan Council, aiming to double the current transit service level and reduce traffic and parking. The lawmakers' goal is to improve the overall fair experience and address the high demand for park-and-ride options.
