A pedestrian and bicycle bridge planned for Shakopee next year will offer a new connection to the Minnesota Valley State Trail and other routes in the regional network. Construction on the Highway 169 overpass bridge is expected to begin in March and be completed by the fall, according to project plans approved by the Shakopee City Council last week. Today, there's no crossing over Highway 169 between County Highway 83 and Stagecoach Road. As a result, bicyclists in the region face a nearly five-mile gap in trail connectivity.
