Discussion:
The Municipal State-Aid (MSA) Street program allows cities with populations of 5,000 or more to designate 20% of its local streets as MSA routes. Based on several factors, including the traffic volumes on the designated routes, the city receives an allocation of state gas tax funding that can be used for roadway capital improvements and maintenance needs on designated MSA routes.
Each year as Shakopee continues to develop and add additional roads, the city accumulates mileage to add additional roadways to the state aid system. The City of Shakopee currently has approximately 179 miles of municipal qualifying roadways, of which 35.85 miles can be designated as MSA routes with a balance of 1.76 miles yet to be designated.
The streets listed below meet MSA Street program criteria and are eligible for MSA street designation. The system revision includes revoking 2.66 miles of existing MSA streets and designating 4.24 miles as new MSA streets. The proposed MSA Street System revisions can be used in calculating Shakopee’s 2025 MSA allotment and leaves 0.18 miles left for future designation.
