Gov <br />FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE <br />Ramsey Gateway Project Earns ACEC Award <br />A local project has recently been the recipient of a National Recognition Award in the <br />American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) 2026 Engineering Excellence Awards <br />(EEA). <br />Anoka County, in partnership with the City of Ramsey and the Minnesota Department of <br />Transportation (MnDOT), constructed the Highway 10 Gateway project a significant two-year <br />effort that delivered major improvements to this critical corridor. The project included the <br />construction of two grade -separated interchanges at Ramsey Boulevard and Sunfish Lake <br />Boulevard, replacing the former signalized intersections. In addition, the at -grade BNSF railway <br />crossings at both locations were grade -separated, greatly enhancing safety and mobility. <br />"This honor reflects the dedication and expertise of everyone who contributed to making <br />the project a reality," said District 1 Commissioner John Heinrich, who is also the lead <br />commissioner on transportation. <br />The National Recognition Award category represents exceptional merit and national -level <br />excellence. <br />-30- <br />Respectful, Innovative, Fiscally Responsible <br />Government Center A 2100 3rd Avenue, Suite 700 A Anoka, MN 55303-5024 A www.anokacountymn.gov <br />Office: 763-324-4700 A Fax: 763-324-5490 <br />Affirmative Action / Equal Opportunity Employer <br />
