<br /> I <br /> I of a milling operation, followed by the installation of a 11/2-inch bituminous overlay. Finally, <br /> t' streets rated above 80 receive a seal coat as a preventive maintenance procedure. <br /> The PCI report for all the streets in Arden Hills is included as Appendix A. To facilitate the use <br /> I of the pavement management system, the streets were organized into five zones based upon their <br /> geographic proximity to one another. These zones are divided by the major highways passing <br /> through Arden Hills. The pavement management zones are presented in Exhibit 3 and are <br /> I bounded as follows: <br /> Zone Location <br /> I 1 North of 1-694 and east of TH 10 <br /> 2 North of 1-694 and west of TH 10 <br /> I 3 North of the Soo Line Rail easement and south of 1-694 <br /> and west of Snelling A venue <br /> 4 South of the Soo Line Rail easement and west of State <br /> I Highway 51 <br /> 5 East of State Highway 51 and south of 1-694. <br /> I Fernwood Avenue <br /> Ie Fernwood Avenue is one street proposed for reconstruction under both alternates. The section <br /> of Fernwood Avenue analyzed within the scope of this feasibility study is located between West <br /> County Road F and a privately owned and maintained street running west from Lexington <br /> I Avenue. The segment of Fernwood Avenue proposed for reconstruction with either Alternate 1 <br /> or 2 is presented on Exhibits 1 and 2. Fernwood Avenue is a City street that is proposed for <br /> designation as a Municipal State Aid Street (MSAS). This will allow the City to utilize State Aid <br /> I funds in the reconstruction of Fernwood A venue and the potential future City street connecting <br /> Fernwood to Lexington Avenue at the north end of this segment. The surrounding property is <br /> zoned as I-I, limited industrial district. The street is approximately 1,985 feet long and 52 feet <br /> I wide. <br /> I The entire length of Fernwood Avenue consists of a bituminous pavement surface with existing <br /> bituminous curb. There are extensive amounts of moderate to severe distress throughout the <br /> pavement surface. The street has an existing storm sewer system. A lO-inch sanitary sewer and <br /> I a 16-inch watermain are also located within the right-of-way. It is recommended that the City <br /> televise this segment of sanitary sewer and review utility maintenance records prior to the <br /> preparation of plans, to allow any necessary repairs to be completed in conjunction with the street <br /> I reconstruction. <br /> The proposed reconstruction involves replacing the existing 52-foot wide street with a 36 to 42- <br /> I foot wide commercial design street section. This issue will be further evaluated in the follow-up <br /> report. Initial observations indicate that a 52-foot street width is not required based upon current <br /> t' traffic conditions and projections. The existing storm sewer system would require substantial <br /> modifications or replacement to accommodate the new street width. The street would be subcut <br /> and reconstructed with a I-foot select granular borrow subbase and HDPE draintile with B6l8 <br /> I concrete curb and gutter. <br /> FEAS.520.068 -4- 520..()68~ 10 <br />
