Metropolitan Council of the Twin Cities AreaThis dataset supports planning related to policies that address density and activity in the 2050 Transportation Policy Plan (TPP).  It includes geographic spatial features with applicable density policies for select geographies. Additional detail about these policies, including their application, are available in the Local Planning Handbook. The geographic file indicates where density requirements apply related to transit.  They include station areas along existing transitways, transitways under construction, and transitways where the locations of future stations have been finalized. It also applies to stations along Arterial BRT and along local bus routes that are part of Metro Transit's High Frequency Network. Density policy varies based on the type of transit and/or Community Designations in Imagine 2050. The table relates to the geographic file with the UNIQUE_ID field (Station name + Community Name). For stations that exist within more than one community, the table has an addition record with the station total. Transit spatial features are the unique combination of transit station areas and municipalities. Please note that this dataset will be periodically updated. This will occur with changes to transitway priorities, programs, and funding availability. This dataset can also change as station locations are added, eliminated, or adjusted as part of project development and engineering phases of transitway development.To have a geographic depiction of the density policies associated with high-frequency transit.Density polices are based on the Fiscally Constrained Plan of the 2050 Transportation Policy Plan and local bus routes that are part of the current High Frequency Network. Adjustments are made to planned station locations arising from modifications to Locally Preferred Alternatives, as well as changes that happen at planning milestones during project development. The dataset may not represent changes that are under consideration or are anticipated at a future date.Filesus-mn-state-metc-plan-transit-density-policiesengPublicTransit Density Policy [Minnesota]DatasetsMinnesota--Anoka CountyMinnesota--Carver CountyMinnesota--Dakota CountyMinnesota--Hennepin CountyMinnesota--Ramsey CountyMinnesota--Scott CountyMinnesota--Washington CountyMinnesota--Twin Cities Metropolitan AreaMinnesota2025-11-12Minnesota Geospatial Commons
