John Deere Feller Buncher at Southwest LRT Construction, St. Louis Park

A John Deere feller buncher sits at the Southwest LRT construction site in St. Louis Park, Minnesota, used for clearing trees for the new transit line.
A John Deere feller buncher, a heavy-duty forestry machine, is parked at the Southwest Light Rail Transit (LRT) construction site in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. This equipment was used for site preparation, clearing trees and vegetation to make way for the new transit line. The "KEEP BACK 300 FT / 90 M" warning on the machine highlights the safety protocols necessary for such large-scale construction projects. The Southwest LRT, a major transit expansion, aims to connect Minneapolis with its western suburbs, transforming the transportation network and the surrounding urban environment.
