St. Croix Crossing Bridge: Minnesota-Wisconsin Connection
The St. Croix Crossing, an extradosed bridge, connects Oak Park Heights, Minnesota, and St. Joseph, Wisconsin, across the St. Croix River. Completed in 2017, it replaced an aging bridge and significantly improved traffic flow by carrying Minnesota State Highway 36 and Wisconsin State Highway 64. The structure features four lanes of traffic and a dedicated bike and pedestrian path on its north side, enhancing connectivity and accessibility between the two states.
