Minnesota State Highway 156 (MN 156) is a 0.798-mile-long (1.284 km) highway in Minnesota, which runs from the Dakota–Ramsey county line to an interchange with U.S. Highway 52 (the Lafayette Freeway) near downtown Saint Paul. It had previously began at an interchange with Interstate 494 in South St. Paul before the Dakota County portion of the route was turned back to county maintenance in 2020.[2]
State Highway 156 serves as a north–south route between South St. Paul and the "West Side" neighborhood of Saint Paul.
Highway 156 generally follows the Mississippi River throughout its route.
Historyedit
State Highway 156 was marked in 1994. It was originally part of State Highway 56 from 1934 to 1994.
The route was renumbered 156 in 1994 when State Highway 56 was shortened to end at Hampton in southern Dakota County. Nearby Concord Boulevard in Inver Grove Heights (previously State Highway 56 as well) was designated Dakota County Road 56 in 1994.
The route has been paved since the 1920s before it was a numbered highway.[3]
The section that is Legislative Route 112 south of the St. Paul City limits was removed in 2020, and was subsequently turned back.[4]
