Which airport for The Toro Company

MSP ~5–10 min · METRO Blue line (MOA). One airport — Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP), between the two downtowns. The METRO Blue Line light rail runs from the terminals into Downtown Minneapolis and the Mall of America, so a downtown trip can skip the car.

The ground reality in Minneapolis

MSP has a real rail link: the Blue Line runs from both terminals to Downtown Minneapolis in about 25 minutes. For a downtown meeting it is easy. But many Twin Cities HQs sit in suburbs — Minnetonka, Eden Prairie, Maplewood, Fridley — that light rail does not reach, so those are a rideshare or rental. Winter makes the buffer non-negotiable.

Getting to The Toro Company

For The Toro Company specifically, Bloomington, on Lyndale Avenue points you toward a rideshare or rental — the suburban campuses are off the light-rail line.
