Minnesota • United States of America
The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) manages over 12,000 miles of state trunk highways serving a state with one of the most truck-intensive freight economies in the upper Midwest. Key corridors include I-35, I-90, I-94, US-10, and US-169, which carry agricultural products, forest goods, and manufactured goods to and from the Minneapolis-Saint Paul metro. MnDOT administers commercial vehicle permits through its Online Permitting system, enforces spring weight restrictions essential to protect road integrity during freeze-thaw cycles, and provides 511MN for real-time road and weather alerts. The department coordinates with Canadian border crossings to facilitate cross-border freight flows.
