Feasibility Report TKDA Project No. 18196.000 <br />City of Arden Hills Page 9 <br /> <br />Due to the fact that some areas of the project are not recommended for a mill and overlay and <br />some areas of the street may require bituminous removal and replacement after milling and prior <br />to overlaying, it is recommended the entire project area be reclaimed and full depth pavement <br />replacement be performed. This will provide the neighborhood with a uniform street section and <br />longer lasting results. <br /> <br />To make room for the new bituminous <br />section, the reclaimed material will be <br />graded and compacted to a depth of 5” <br />below finish grade after reclamation and <br />excess material removed. A leveling <br />layer of 1” of class 5 will be added under <br />a 4” bituminous pavement section <br />placed over the new roadway base in <br />two lifts across the width to provide a <br />smooth new surface. A proposed typical <br />section for Arden Oaks Drive and Arden <br />Oaks Court is shown in Exhibit 3. <br /> <br />Curb and Gutter: Existing curb and gutter will remain in place except for curb that is damaged, <br />settled, or not draining properly. The existing curb will be inspected and marked for removal prior <br />to construction. It is typical to see between 20% to 30% curb replacement for residential roadways <br />of this age due to settlement or cracking. From examination of the curb in the field, it was found <br />that approximately 30% +/- 5% of the curb would need to be replaced due to large cracks or settling <br />causing drainage issues. For the purposes of this report and estimates, 30% was used for <br />calculation of project costs and scope. <br /> <br />One portion of curb, approximately 300 feet in <br />length around the Arden Oaks Drive cul-de-sac <br />extending down the south curb line approximately <br />100 feet, was noted during field inspection as being <br />in poor condition. It is recommended the curb in <br />that stretch be replaced in its entirety. In addition <br />to the curb being replaced, it is recommended that <br />drain tile be installed around the radius of the cul- <br />de-sac to the catch basin located on the south side <br />curb of the Snelling Avenue Arden Oaks <br />intersection. A valley gutter is also recommended <br />at the Arden Oaks Drive County Road E <br />intersection to better facilitate drainage through the <br />intersection. <br /> <br />In addition to curb and gutter replacement, driveways impacted by replaced curb and gutter will be <br />patched to the same, or better than, previous conditions. Turf disturbed as a part of the curb <br />replacement process will be restored with 6” topsoil and residential grade seed. <br /> <br />Utilities: It is recommended that all the manhole and catch basin rings be replaced as a part of the <br />pavement rehabilitation project. It is typical to reset all manhole and catch basin grades to match <br />the new grades of the roadway to improve drivability and drainage. In addition to the adjustment <br />rings, outdated and damaged manhole and catch basin casting assemblies will be replaced with <br />their modern castings. Storm sewer manholes and catch basins and sanitary manholes will be <br />recast with new concrete rings. Sanitary sewer manholes will be recast with concrete rings and <br />infiltration prevention products to limit inflow and infiltration into the sanitary system. <br /> <br />Figure 6. 2020 Street Reclamation Project from White <br />Bear Township Street Project <br />Figure 7.
