DATE: March 21, 2016 <br /> <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br />Susan Iverson, Acting City Administrator <br /> <br />FROM: John Anderson, Acting Public Works Director <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Interstate 694 Non-Motorized Crossing Study <br /> <br />Requested Action <br /> <br />Receive the I-694 Non-Motorized Crossing Study as prepared by the Minnesota Department of <br />Transportation (MnDOT). <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />As MnDOT was preparing plans to reconstruct the I-694 and TH 51 interchange, the City of <br />Arden Hills asked if a trail could be extended along the Hamline Avenue / TH 51 corridor. This <br />proved to be not feasible for a number of reasons but lead to the larger question of where were <br />logical locations for non-motorized crossings along the I-694 corridor in Arden Hills. MnDOT <br />began a study to answer this question. Shortly after commencing the study, other neighboring <br />communities were asking the same question which lead to expanding the study to include a <br />larger area bounded by Silver Lake Road to the west and TH 120 to the east. <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />The Study has been completed and representatives from MnDOT will be in attendance to <br />summarize the results and answer any questions the City Council may have. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br />Attachment A: I-694 Non-motorized Crossing Study <br /> <br />ITEM – 1C <br /> <br /> MEMORANDUM <br />
