Marschall Road Interchange Area The Marschall Road interchange area began to develop shortly after construction of the U.S. Highway 169 bypass. The area includes a number of big box anchors, retail strip centers and outparcel developments. Significant destinations include the shopping centers anchored by Cub, Target and Kohl’s, MVTA Marschall Road Transit Station and the St. Francis Regional Medical Center. Land to the north of U.S. Highway 169 is built-out, but may provide long-term redevelopment opportunities, while some greenfield development opportunities remain south of 17th Avenue and the Medical Center. The Marschall Road corridor provides an indirect connection to Downtown Shakopee via Highway 101 to the north, and to Mystic Lake Casino to the south.

RECOMMENDATIONS » » Support higher densities of housing in close proximity to the Marschall Road Transit Station » » Prepare for long-term infill development on large parking lots as transportation patterns and parking needs change over time » » Create design standards for new commercial development to have an improved physical appearance and pedestrian connections to Marschall Road and 17th Avenue » » Improve pedestrian experience and access near shopping centers, especially Cub grocery store » » Conduct study to examine spacing and density of curb-cuts on Marschall Road north of Vierling Drive
