Letter to Jessica Jagoe and Jane Kansier <br />Page 2 <br />Proposed Phase II Roadway Improvements: <br />Phase II roadway improvements will expand upon work completed in 2020 to include a raised <br />center median to complement the mid-block crossing and pedestrian traffic signal. The addition of a <br />center median will provide an added level of safety for pedestrians crossing Lake Valentine Road <br />during all hours of the day. The project will also look to align access points on the west end of the <br />school site by to provide a singular intersection with the south leg accessing the school drop- <br />off/pick-up area and north leg accessing the improved parking lot. Right turn lanes will also be <br />provided at both the east and west access points to improve operations by removing slowing traffic <br />from Lake Valentine Road and allowing for any queuing needs to occur in a dedicated turn lane <br />rather than in the thru lane. Overall, the proposed improvements are expected to improve safety <br />and mobility for pedestrians, Lake Valentine Road thru traffic, and traffic entering/exiting the <br />Mounds View High School Site. <br />If there are any questions, regarding the project or the above narrative, please do not hesitate to <br />reach out to us. Thank you. <br />Sincerely, <br />Wold Architects and Engineers <br />Douglas Kahl | AIA <br />Associate <br />cc: Carole Nielsen, ISD #621 <br />Dave Rey, BMI <br />Mike Tierney, BMI <br />Jacob Bongard, BMI <br />Derek Arens, BMI <br />Paul Aplikowski, Wold <br />LW/ISD_621/212190/crsp/nov21 <br />DlKhl|AIA
