Project Description <br /> <br />This Pavement Evaluation Report addresses the proposed design and construction of the 2022 Street <br />Rehabilitation – Phase 1, located in Arden Hills, Minnesota. <br /> <br />The project will consist of roadway rehabilitation via either a mill-and-overlay or full-depth reclamation <br />(FDR) approach.

Site Aspects and Grading Description <br />Aspect Description <br />Pavement type(s) Bituminous (Provided) <br />Assumed pavement loads <br />Less than 150,000 Bituminous ESALs <br />(Estimated from publicly available traffic information <br />using the MnDOT State Aid ESAL Forecast Calculator) <br />Grade changes Minimal (Assumed; profiles and cross-sections not <br />available at the time of this report) <br />*Equivalent 18,000-lb single axle loads based on 20-year design. <br /> <br /> <br />We have described our understanding of the proposed construction and site to the extent others <br />reported it to us. Depending on the extent of available information, we may have made assumptions <br />based on our experience with similar projects. If we have not correctly recorded or interpreted the <br />project details, the project team should notify us. New or changed information could require additional <br />evaluation, analyses and/or recommendations. <br /> <br />A.2. Site Conditions and History <br /> <br />The project area is generally residential and bounded by U.S. Highway 10 to the west, Hamline Avenue to <br />the east, County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 96 to the north, and Floral Drive to the south. Current grades <br />range from elevations of about 977 feet at Boring ST-1 to 908 feet at Boring ST-4. The site contains rolling <br />topography, with a high area located near Highway 96 and Hamline Avenue generally sloping downward <br />south and west with some intermittent high points in between.
