<br /> I <br /> ~ intersections is summarized below. <br /> The Highway 96/Highway 10 intersection under existing conditions functions at a Level Of <br /> Service F during the PM Peak Hour. <br /> I Separate analysis of the Highway 96/Gateway Boulevard intersection indicates that the <br /> intersection functions at an acceptable level of service today, however the intersection will <br /> require a signal in the near future to accommodate the development of the Gateway Business <br /> I Park, <br /> I The existing accesses along Highway 10 north of Highway 96 currently do not function as a. <br /> single intersection and therefore were not evaluated in the existing condition. <br /> I FORECAST SCENARIOS <br /> Scenario 1: At-Grade Intersections at <br /> I Highway 10 & Highway 96; <br /> Gateway Boulevard & Highway 96; <br /> Gateway Boulevard & Highway 10 <br /> I Traffic Movement/Access Provided <br /> This scenario would maintain full access in all directions for traffic on Highway 96 as well as <br /> . traffic entering the City on Trunk Highway 10. Access to the redeveloped TCAAP site and the <br /> redeveloped Highway 10/96 Triangle would be tIuough Hamline Avenue, Snelling Avenue, <br /> Gateway Boulevard, County Road H2 and County Road 1. All future scenarios assume that one <br /> I at grade intersection (or crossing) would replace the multiple existing entrances onto TH 10 <br /> north of Highway 96. <br /> I The proposed intersection ofTH 10 and Highway 96 would include dual left-tum lanes on the <br /> southbound TH 10 approach to accommodate 336 peak hour left turns. Single left turn lanes <br /> would be provided on all other legs. Free right turn lanes would be provided for TH 10 traffic <br /> I onto Highway 96 from both north and south approaches. Dual left tum lanes would be required <br /> for eastbound Highway 96 to northbound Gateway Boulevard to accommodate 443 peak hour <br /> left turns, The analysis indicates a high number of right tum movements for southbound <br /> I Gateway Boulevard to westbound Highway 96 which may require free right tum access or <br /> multiple turn lanes, Dual left turn lanes would be required for southbound Highway 10 to <br /> eastbound Gateway Boulevard to accommodate 790 peak hour left turns. <br /> I Old Highway 10 would be realigned to run parallel between Highway 96 and Round Lake <br /> connecting to Gateway Boulevard west of Round Lake. The relocation of the Old Highway 10 <br /> I access is necessary to provide the minimum desirable separation between full access <br /> intersections along Highway 96, This scenario requires that the alignment of Highway 96 be <br /> I shifted north from its current location in order to accommodate the frontage road without any <br /> additional impacts to Round Lake. <br /> r 6 <br /> I <br />
