Four intersections will experience LOS E or F in 2005 and 2020. It should be noted that these four intersections also experience LOS E or F under existing (2002) conditions.

No-Build Conclusions The cause of the declining LOS from 2005 to 2020 at many of the intersections is the increase in background traffic volumes and the lack of planned improvements on the adjacent roadways. In order to obtain a LOS D or better at these intersections, additional roadway improvements would need to be implemented. The following improvements are recommended to improvc traffic operations on adjacent roadways: 2005 Recommended Improvements: . An additional northbound left turn lane at Lexington Avenue/CR F. A southbound and northbound right turn lane at the intersection of the I-694 ramps with Lexington Avenue. Installation of traffic signals at Lexington Avenue/Guidant Drive North and Hamline Avenue/CR F. . . 2020 Recommended Improvements: A dedicated westbound right turn lane at Hamline Avenue/CR F.
