The start of a new era in baseball in Minnesota is a few days away.  Fans will arrive at the new outdoor stadium in a variety of ways, including by bike.  Many will come via the Cedar Lake Trail from the west.  The trail route, present and the future route through downtown to the Mississippi River, is visible above as the blue line that runs diagonally from upper left to lower right.

The Cedar Lake Trail corridor passes under the stadium for approximately 750 feet.  On the east end, it runs alongside the platforms of the new multimodal transit station, which already serves the Northstar commuter rail line and the Hiawatha LRT.
