Not funded or committed Ramsey County; Shoreview R Wayfinding to Grass Lake Trail Crossing • Recommendation to install wayfinding from existing trails and bikeways including Victoria, Gramsie, Hodgson, and Owasso. • Signage will help guide bicyclists to this crossing as an option to avoid more difficult crossings such as Rice Street. Not funded or committed Ramsey County; Shoreview S I-694 / Rice St Interchange • County is seeking funds from the State Legislature to reconstruct the Rice Street Interchange. • Current bridge does not have pedestrian or bike facilities. New interchange will provide opportunity to address deficiencies. Not funded or committed Ramsey County; MnDOT; Shoreview; Vadnais Heights; Little Canada T Trout Brook Regional Trail North • Recommendation to extend the Trout Brook Regional Trail North across I-694 to Vadnais Lake. • Trail master plan is currently under development and not yet approved by Metropolitan Council, therefore this is likely a longer term initiative. • Master plan includes a trail crossing of I-694 that is completely separated from traffic east of Rice Street.
