Dry-cleaning, hamburgers, coffee, cash, pills and even prayers — they’re all within reach of the car window nowadays at drive-throughs across the Twin Cities.

 

But some Minneapolis leaders want to clamp down on drive-throughs in favor of people traveling the city on foot. A change to city rules in its early stages would likely further restrict where drive-throughs could be installed in the city.

 

“The streets where a lot of people are walking, on our transit corridors, maybe we don’t want to have drive-throughs at all,” said Council Member Lisa Bender, who sponsored the proposal with Council Member Lisa Goodman. “If we do, we may want to strengthen our controls of them and minimize their impact on people walking.”
