<br />- <br />, <br />. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br /> Date: August 25, 1987 <br /> To: Public Safety/Works Committee <br /> From: Patricia J. Morrison, Clerk.Administrator <br /> Re: Intersection, Highways 96 and 10 <br /> -------------------------------------------------------------------------- <br /> In response to concerns expressed at the August 20 Public Safety/Works <br /> meeting, the enclosed letter was forward to Hr. Don Fashant of HnDOT, <br /> District 9. <br /> Also, in discussing your concerns with Commander Bergeron of the Ramsey <br /> County Sheriff's Department, the following statistics were submitted, upon <br /> request for reported accidents and comparable intersection accidents: <br /> Intersection 96/10 Intersection Lexington/96 <br /> (to date) 1987 4 10 <br /> 1986 13 14 <br />. 1985 5 16 <br /> 1984 3 25 <br /> 1983 7 12 <br /> There may be accidents which were not reported to Ramsey County, as both <br /> streets are under HnDOT's jurisdiction. It was also noted the accidents <br /> on 96/10. in some cases, involved higher speeds, therefore, accidents were <br /> more severe. <br /> Commander Bergerson did not think flashing lights would alleviate the <br /> problem; he felt the majority of the acci~ents were due to people attempting <br /> to "make it through the light before it turns"', or, simply running the <br /> light. <br />. <br />
