City of Arden Hills – 2040 Comprehensive Plan <br /> <br /> <br />Approved: XXXXX <br />B-4 <br />Highway 10). The A Minor Arterial Expanders are CSAH 51/Lexington Avenue (north of <br />I-694) and CSAH 96 (east of US Highway 10). The Spine Road is a Planned A Minor <br />Expander. The A-Minor Arterial Augmenters are TH 51, CR D (west of I - 35W), and <br />CSAH 51/Lexington Avenue (south of I-694). The Other Minor Arterials are Old US-10, <br />CR E, CR E2 (east of Cleveland Avenue), Hamline Avenue, Snelling Avenue (north of <br />CR E), and New Brighton Road. <br /> <br />1.3 MAJOR COLLECTORS <br /> <br />Roadways of this classification typically link neighborhoods together within a city or they <br />link neighborhoods to business concentrations. In highly urban areas, they also provide <br />connectivity between major traffic generators. A trip length of less than five miles is <br />most common for Major Collector roadways. A balance between mobility and access is <br />desired. Major Collector street connections are predominately to Minor Arterials, but <br />they can be connected to any of the other four roadway functional classes. Local <br />access to Major Collectors should be provided via public streets and individual property <br />access should be avoided. Major Collector streets are predominantly responsible for <br />providing circulation within a city. Major Collectors that are a part of the road network in <br />Arden Hills includes Valentine Lake Road, west of CSAH 76/Snelling Avenue; and <br />CSAH 149/Lake Johanna Boulevard from CR D to CR E. Old Hwy 8 is designated as a <br />Major Collector. <br /> <br />1.4 MINOR COLLECTORS <br /> <br />Roadways of this classification facilitate the collection of local traffic and convey it to <br />Major Collectors and Minor Arterials. Minor Collector streets serve short trips at <br />relatively low speeds. Their emphasis is focused on access rather than mobility. Minor <br />Collectors are responsible for providing connections between neighborhoods and the <br />Major Collector/Minor Arterial roadways. There are no roadways designated as Minor <br />Collector roadways in the City of Arden Hills. <br /> <br />1.5 LOCAL STREETS <br /> <br />Roadways of this classification typically include city streets that facilitate the collection <br />of local traffic and convey it to collectors and Minor Arterials. Their emphasis is to <br />provide direct property access. An example of a local street is Snelling Avenue <br />between CR E (CSAH 15/149) and TH 51. <br /> <br />Dr <br />a <br />f <br />t <br /> <br />11 <br />/ <br />2 <br />0 <br />/ <br />2 <br />0 <br />1 <br />7
