The backbone of this route's connectivity is the Marschall Road Transit Station (located at Hwy 169 and Co. Rd. 17). This facility serves as a major Park & Ride lot featuring MVTA Shakopee Services:
- Parking Capacity: A large park-and-ride lot offering 400 free parking spaces for commuters.
- Station Amenities: Includes an indoor, climate-controlled waiting area, bike racks, free public Wi-Fi, and a station to purchase or reload regional Go-To transit fare cards.
- Route 493 (Express Service): Connects Shakopee drivers directly to Downtown Minneapolis during weekday commuter hours.
- Route 497 (Westbound Local): The fixed local loop highlighted in the image that routes west through Shakopee to the Scott County Government Center.
- Route 499 (Eastbound Local): A complementary local loop routing east toward the Shakopee Walmart.
- Route 495 / 4FUN (Regional Entertainment Connection): A daily route linking the transit station to massive regional attractions, including Mystic Lake Casino, Canterbury Park, Valleyfair, the Twin Cities Premium Outlets, and the Mall of America.
- MVTA Connect: Provides the community with an on-demand, ride-hailing shuttle service that bridges the gaps between standard fixed-route bus stops.
The Burnsville Transit Station is more than just a place to park and catch a bus—it was a trailblazing development that reshaped Twin Cities transit infrastructure in the 1990s.
In our latest post, we trace the hub's history from its $2.5 million construction on the old Lucky Twin Drive-In site to its modern-day footprint.
