For air transport, the Minnesota Aeronautics Commission was created in 1933. Much of the railroad oversight was transferred to the Minnesota Department of Public Service in 1967. Two years later, the Minnesota Department of Public Safety was established and took over the <a href="/wiki/Minnesota_State_Patrol" title="Minnesota State Patrol">Highway Patrol</a> and <a href="/wiki/Driver%27s_license" title="Driver's license">Driver's License Bureau</a>. MnDOT finally came into being in 1976 and took over the functions of the aeronautics and highway departments, plus transportation-related duties of the Minnesota State Planning Agency and Department of Public Service. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Services_and_projects">Services and projects</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Minnesota_Department_of_Transportation&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Services and projects"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>MnDOT operates networks of <a href="/wiki/Ramp_meter" title="Ramp meter">ramp meters</a> and <a href="/wiki/Traffic_camera" title="Traffic camera">traffic cameras</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Minneapolis-St._Paul" class="mw-redirect" title="Minneapolis-St. Paul">Minneapolis-St. Paul</a> <a href="/wiki/Metropolitan_area" title="Metropolitan area">metropolitan area</a> in order to manage traffic flow. The department has also put up informational <a href="/wiki/Variable_message_sign" class="mw-redirect" title="Variable message sign">electronic signage</a> along highways to provide alert messages. Message boards have been in <a href="/wiki/Rochester,_Minnesota" title="Rochester, Minnesota">Rochester</a>, <a href="/wiki/Duluth,_Minnesota" title="Duluth, Minnesota">Duluth</a> and the Twin Cities for some time.

The department expanded use of the signs after <a href="/wiki/Amber_Alert" class="mw-redirect" title="Amber Alert">Amber Alert</a> legislation allocated funding for larger networks. In the Twin Cities, MnDOT began using them to display freeway travel times in 2003 or 2004 to help drivers plan alternate routes to avoid heavy traffic if necessary (although a generic message like "buckle up for safety" is sometimes encountered during special safety campaigns planned in conjuncture with the State Patrol and Department of Public Safety). </p><p><a href="/wiki/Twin_Cities_Public_Television" class="mw-redirect" title="Twin Cities Public Television">Twin Cities Public Television</a> (TPT) station KTCI channel 17 has been used for many years to display <a href="/wiki/Weather" title="Weather">weather</a>-related information that is funded by MnDOT. This service is continued on channel 2-4 following the <a href="/wiki/DTV_transition_in_the_United_States" class="mw-redirect" title="DTV transition in the United States">digital transition</a>. The department also had a long-standing partnership with <a href="/wiki/KBEM-FM" title="KBEM-FM">KBEM-FM</a> radio (88.5 FM) in <a href="/wiki/Minneapolis" title="Minneapolis">Minneapolis</a> to relay area traffic information, although that relationship is coming to an end. After public outcry, the term was extended, but it is unclear how long the two organizations will continue the relationship. MnDOT paid KBEM-FM $400,000 per year to provide the information, about half of the station's annual budget.
