I ~ Alternate No.1 Streets Alternate No. I consists of upgrading streets within Zone 1 of the City's pavement management program, as well as all necessary seal coating. Zone 1 includes the area generally northeast of Highway 10 and west of Lexington A venue. The proposed work involves the reconstruction of Colleen Avenue, Colleen Circle, Fernwood Avenue, and James Avenue; and the bituminous , overlayment of various surrounding streets as shown in Exhibit 1. I Colleen Avenue runs from McClung Drive to Hamline Avenue, while Colleen Circle and James Avenue both branch off of Colleen Avenue. Colleen Avenue and Colleen Circle have PCI ratings of 58 and 59 respectively, indicating that bituminous overlay is no longer a cost-effective option I for rehabilitation. The streets consist of bituminous surface in fair condition, with extensive areas of light and moderate severity cracking. Colleen Avenue is 2,400 feet long and 33 feet wide. Colleen Circle is 205 feet long and 33 feet wide with an 88-foot diameter cul-de-sac. Both streets I have existing D418 surmountable concrete curb and gutter. James Avenue has a PCI of 37, indicating structural failure. The street has extensive alligator I cracking and patch areas. It is 625 feet long and 30 feet wide. It has D418 surmountable curb and gutter from Colleen Avenue to 137 feet south of Colleen Avenue and a bituminous berm through the remainder of the segment. An existing storm sewer system collects runoff near Indian , Oaks Court and directs it to the wetland/pond located east of James Avenue. Eide Circle is a cul-de-sac that branches off to the west of Hamline Avenue. It has a PCI of 14, Ie ranking it as the worst street in the City of Arden Hills. The pavement is in very poor condition with large areas of alligator cTacking, patching, and settling. These types of stresses indicate , structural failure. A bituminous berm guides some stormwater runoff east to the Hamline Avenue storm sewer and some west to a catch basin at the west end of the cul-de-sac, which drains into the wetland north of Eide Circle. I It is proposed to reconstruct all of the streets (with the exception of Fernwood Avenue) to the City of Arden Hills standard street width of 32 feet, as measured from curbface to curbface. Existing , bituminous and surmountable curb would be replaced with B618 concrete curb and gutter. Where necessary, the streets would be subcut and select granular borrow and draintile would be installed, as required by subsurface soil conditions. The storm sewer and other utilities would be upgraded I as needed, based upon Public Works input and information obtained from the follow-up report. I The costs associated with Alternate No. 1 are included in the Project Costs portion of this report. Alternate No.2 Streets I Alternate No.2 focuses on improving streets near the intersection of Snelling Avenue and County Road E, in addition to the proposed seal coating and the reconstruction of Fernwood Avenue. I This intersection is located near the borders of Zones 3, 4, and 5 of the City's pavement management program. The streets to be reconstructed are Oak Avenue, Pascal Avenue, and a t' portion of McCracken Lane. At the same time, several nearby streets would receive bituminous oveTlay improvements. Streets proposed for improvement under this alternate are presented on Exhibit 2. I FEAS-520.068 -5- 520-068-10
