City of Arden Hills – 2030 Comprehensive Plan <br /> <br /> <br />Approved: September 28, 2009 <br />9-12 <br />Highway 10 north of Highway 96. A minimum of one grade separated <br />crossing is desired. <br /> <br />o Interstate 35W – The City desires a pedestrian and bike bridge over <br />Interstate 35W. A specific location for this crossing needs to be identified. <br />This would be a crucial pathway crossing to connect the TCAAP area with <br />Long Lake Regional Park. <br /> <br />o Interstate 694 – A pathway crossing in Arden Hills is needed at Interstate <br />694. A final location(s) will be selected when Interstate 694 is <br />reconstructed; however, two potential locations include: <br /> Hamline Avenue/Highway 51 – A pathway across Interstate 694 <br />near Hamline Avenue/Highway 51 must be constructed when <br />Interstate 694 is reconstructed. <br /> Lexington Avenue – While there is a pathway on the Shoreview <br />side of the Lexington Avenue bridge, there is not a path on the <br />Arden Hills side of the bridge. When the Interstate 694 <br />reconstruction occurs, a pathway should be provided at this <br />location. <br /> <br />o Trail Signage – add small trail identification maps that include distance, <br />name, and standard city identification where needed. <br /> <br />Implementing the pathway expansion and improvement plan will require <br />cooperation with Ramsey County, MnDOT, the school districts, and other private <br />and public entities. The City recognizes that the entire network cannot be <br />completed at once; however, the above list represents the long-term goal of a <br />comprehensive pathway network to facilitate recreational and utilitarian uses. <br /> <br />9.4.4 Park and Open Space Acquisitions <br /> <br />While there is very little vacant land available in the City outside of the TCAAP <br />property, four locations were identified for potential incorporation into the City’s <br />park and recreational system (Figure 9.2). Two land parcels remain to be <br />acquired within the boundary of Tony Schmidt Regional Park. Additional public <br />lands adjacent to the park are proposed to be used for trails and trail connections <br />under cooperative agreements. <br /> <br />o Charles Perry Park – The City should consider acquiring the residential <br />property adjacent to Charles Perry in order to minimize the potential <br />conflict caused by reflected light, noise and trespassing while providing an
