<br /> Memorandum, 1999 Street Improvement Feasibility Report . <br /> Page Two <br /> October 8, 1998 <br /> Round Lake Road Phase n <br /> Reconstruction of Phase II of Round Lake Road is also now necessary due to several factors, <br /> including: <br /> . Current road conditions <br /> . Non-existing Surface Water Management System <br /> . The need to upgrade the watermain in this area <br /> . Projected future increases in traffic from future development <br /> Combining Phases I & n Into One Project <br /> Council and staff have discussed the benefits of combining Phases I and II into one proj ect. The <br /> City Engineer has indicated this could result in a savings of staff and project management time, <br /> as well as a possible 2% to 5% savings in construction costs. If the two projects were combined, <br /> scheduling could be specified to insure the completion of Phase I, which includes the Round <br /> Lake RoundlHighway 96 intersection, as soon as possible to comply with the Welsh <br /> Development Agreement. <br /> Some ofthe risks related to combining the projects are: . <br /> . Right-of -way issues on both Phases, but particularly on Phase II <br /> . The federal water quality monitoring wells on Phase II <br /> . The need to proceed with Phase I as soon as possible <br /> Roadway Options <br /> The Feasibility Report identifies three options in roadway design to consider before preceding <br /> with preparation of plans and specifications. <br /> 1. A basic 36 foot wide, two lane commercial roadway with a 60 foot right-of-way. <br /> 2. A two lane, divided roadw'ay with two (2) 16 foot lanes and an 18 foot median <br /> with turn lanes in an 80 foot right-of-way. <br /> 3. A four lane divided roadway with two (2) 28 foot lanes, an 18 foot median and <br /> turn lanes in a 100 foot right-of-way. This option could be built one side at a <br /> time, leaving the 3'" and 4lh lanes for a later date. However, the right-of-way <br /> should be acquired now. <br /> . <br />
