Project BanjoTraffic Study Regional Analysis AddendumApril 22, 2022 Page 25 st Convert the South Access along 21Avenue to exit onlyto help reduce potential internal st van conflicts, while also reducing potential conflicts along 21Avenue with the adjacent Distribution Alternative, Inc. driveway. Coordinate with City staff to identify any multimodal (i.e., sidewalk or trail) improvements st along Fairview Street or 21Avenue adjacent to the site. stst c.Potential: Main Street / 21Avenue (South Approach) add a median along 21Avenue from Main Street to about 150 feet to the southto restrict the Mobil Gas Station and ADL Auto Repair & Service driveways to right-in/right-outand help reduce conflicts and queues; other potential accommodations, such as an extended right-turn turn lane and additional southbound width to accommodate future lanes could also be considered. st d.Potential: On-Street Parking add no-parking signage on21Avenue and Fairview Street. st e.Long-Term: Main Street / 21Avenue (North Approach) continue to monitor operations and queuing as additional development occurs; consider future potential improvements to minimize southbound left-turn queuing impacts such as: Signal timing adjustments Convert the thru lane to a left-turn lane (to provide dual lefts) and convert the right-turn lane to a shared right/thru lane or add a dedicated right-turn lane Convert the thru lane to a shared left/thru lane and implement split signal timing st f.Long-Term: 21Avenue (Main Street to Commerce Drive) upgradethis segmentto a 3-lane facility to provide continuity and additional capacity to support remaining development. th g.Long-Term: Southbound Left-Turn Lanes along 20Avenue coordinate with Anoka County to determine if these turn lanes should be incorporated from a safety perspective. Under a geo-coded/routing condition, where proposed development traffic is routed via thst 20Avenue (as opposed to 21Avenue), constructing southbound left-turn lanes along th 20 Avenue at Commerce Drive and/orFairview Streetshould be considered, depending on the specific routing desired for the development. st 5)The queueing issues at the 21Avenue / Main Street intersection are expected to continue, regardless of the proposed development traffic rerouting; therefore, the geo-controlling of employees and/or vans of the proposed development is a tool that could be leveraged to help mitigate issues butis not considered a requirement to ensure safe and efficient transportation conditions in the area.
