<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />III. <br /> <br />Proposed Bridge Improvements <br /> <br />We have evaluated three options to provide a wider sidewalk across the bridge ranging from 6.5 <br />feet to 10 feet in width. The following arc brief descriptions along with illustrations and <br />estimated cosls. <br /> <br />A. Bridge Option A: 6.5 Foot Sidewalk <br /> <br />This option is intended to crcatc a wider sidewalk along one side of thc bridge without expanding <br />the width of the existing bridge. This is accomplishcd through doing the following: <br /> <br />. Replacing the nOJ1h hridge rail system (currently 3.67 feet wide) with a newer F-typc rail <br />design (1.67 feet wide). <br />. Shifting the centerline of County Road E 3 feet - This would requirc rcstriping with some <br />curvature on either side of the hridgc to move traffic back to the propcr alignment for the <br />signalizcd intersections. <br />. Narrowing thc traffic lancs from l5 fect to J 4 feet in width (Ramsey County has agreed to <br />this in eonccpt)Rernoval of the south hridge rail system and constmction of a ncw 6.5 foot <br />sidcvy',dk and outside barrier made of concrele and fencing. <br /> <br />15' <br /> <br />Bridge Roil & walk to <br />15' be removed (both sides) <br /> <br /> <br />7.
