May 19 Virtual Open House: Questions and Comments Received 9 <br />23. Also, it is too dangerous for Mounds View and Roseville students to cross Snelling in this way. At dusk, it <br />is particularly dangerous. <br />24. They would drive slower if the highway patrol was doing more patrol work. <br />25. From 2008-2018 there were 3 fatality from Cty Rd C to Highway 694; Ctry Rd C; Hamline and south of <br />Cty Rd E access traveling north on Snelling. <br />26. I have used that crossing in the past (Hamline and Snelling) as a cyclist and would request that you keep <br />it open. <br />27. There are a lot of pedestrians on Lydia <br />28. Please put a gap in the cable median barrier there. <br />29. Still not answering question of left turn lanes on Lydia and C2 <br />30. I don't appreciate that you slipped this in as part of the 35W issue as a way to just close it; quite sure <br />you were hoping nobody noticed. <br />31. Rush hour, not as many people traveling North in the morning. <br />32. 5 crashes in 2 years is not a large number. <br />33. The mandatory left turn arrows at C-2 and Lydia that run 24/7, without a yellow blinking arrow is a key <br />problem, but government has never removed these or changed them to the yellow blinking arrows ever <br />that I know of. <br />34. We live on Glenhill near Hamline Ave. We have appreciated the reduced traffic on Hamline in the <br />evening. Our neighborhood streets and Hamline Ave are much quieter as a result of this closure. We <br />support the permanent closure. <br />35. Why not put a left turn signal light at Hamline and Snelling that is activated when there are cars in the <br />turn lane. North bound traffic would not be stopped very long. <br />36. In Michigan, a road like this would have blinking yellow on Snelling and blinking red on C-2 and Lydia at <br />3am. <br />37. Another signal could also slow down traffic on Snelling. <br />38. I have waited on Lydia in the morning commute to turn southbound left for 8 minutes...way to long <br />39. Here is a link to Strava's data resource: https://metro.strava.com/ <br />40. With this closure there is a lot more traffic thru Lydia ... How is neighborhood safety being addressed? <br />The speed and noise has tripled <br />41. Since we are all taxpayers and if this is so important, the democratic thing to is put it to a vote. <br />42. Left turn onto Lydia or c2 from southbound Snelling needs more cycles. I have wasted many gallons of <br />gas eating for that left turn light. <br />43. Plus, the light at Snelling and Lydia can take 5 plus minutes at rush hour to do a full round. If you have <br />to sit thru it more than once it’s frustrating to say the least <br />44. that directly affects many of the locals that live on those streets that are seeing way more traffic <br />45. your project directly effects Lydia safety. id say its not beyond the scope <br />46. In case people are interested. This is the real decision maker: <br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Anderson_Kelliher <br />47. If you are aware of all of these pedestrian concerns at Lydia, why are you adding more traffic to that <br />intersection!! <br />48. The pedestrian issue goes beyond the intersection. <br />49. Huge mistake, it has been nothing but congestion since <br />50. To me, it doesn't seem like MnDOT is really interested in what the residents say or suggest. This is a <br />project that they are pushing through.
