Minneapolis: Turtle Crossing Sign at Cedar Lake Trail

September 2024 — A temporary “Turtle X-ing” sign stands beside a paved trail managed by the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board, reminding cyclists and pedestrians to slow down for turtles crossing the path.

December on the Midtown Greenway

December on the Midtown Greenway

December 2025 — A winter scene along the Midtown Greenway, the 5.5-mile rail-to-trail corridor that runs through the heart of Minneapolis. The trench and bridge structures visible here date back to the early 20th century, when the Milwaukee Road railroad used this grade-separated route to move freight without disrupting street traffic. After rail service declined, the corridor was converted in stages beginning in the late 1990s, becoming one of the city’s most heavily used bicycle and pedestrian routes. The snow-covered path shows how the greenway remains active year-round, with cyclists continuing to use the historic trench even in mid-December.
