St. Paul; Robert Street viaduct replacement funding provided if RAISE grant is rescinded by USDOT, and money appropriated.

HF 3185 provides Minnesota state funding to replace St. Paul's Robert Street viaduct if the federal government rescinds a $25 million RAISE grant. Specifically, it appropriates $21.2 million from the trunk highway fund and $3.8 million from the general fund - totaling $25 million - to cover the project if the federal grant is withdrawn. The funding covers the viaduct replacement and related improvements like pedestrian crossings, sidewalk upgrades, transit access, and community amenities. This bill directly affects the St. Paul city project and ensures funding continuity should federal support be lost. It is a contingent appropriation triggered solely by a USDOT decision to rescind the existing grant.
