Walmart (Store #3404-05) <br />Traffic Impact Analysis <br />Roseville, Minnesota <br />Study Area <br />The project site is bounded by Cleveland Avenue N (CSAH 46) on the west, County <br />Road C W (CSAH 23) on the south, Prior Avenue on the east, and Twin Lakes Parkway <br />on the north. The proposed development will include an up to 160,000 square foot <br />Walmart store, with the addition of two restaurants with bars in the future. The 6,995 <br />square foot and 6,221 square foot restaurants will occupy the northwest and southwest <br />corners of the site, respectively. The site is currently undeveloped and is zoned as <br />Community Mixed Use. The site is in the southwest corner of the Twin Lakes <br />redevelopment area, which consists of mostly industrial or vacant parcels that the City of <br />Roseville has identified to be redeveloped with a mix of multi-family residential, office, <br />and retail. The development of a Walmart Supercenter is permitted with the current <br />zoning. Current nearby land uses are a mix of industrial, residential, retail, and office. <br />Three access points are proposed for the site, two on Twin Lakes Parkway and one on <br />County Road C W (CSAH 23). As part of the Twin Lakes area redevelopment, Twin <br />Lakes Parkway is planned to be extended to the east to Fairview Avenue N (CSAH 48). <br />An eastbound right-in/right-out access is proposed approximately 300 feet east of <br />Cleveland Avenue N (CSAH 46) on Twin Lakes Parkway. The existing median opening <br />on County Road C W (CSAH 23) between Cleveland Avenue N (CSAH 46) and Prior <br />Avenue is proposed to be moved approximately 150 feet to the east, to provide a ¾ <br />access allowing eastbound left turns into the site, while prohibiting southbound left turns <br />out of the site. The south leg of the roundabout at Twin Lakes Parkway and Mount Ridge <br />Road is the only proposed full access serving the site. <br />Data Collection <br />Intersection turning movement counts (TMCs) were collected at the following four <br />locations: <br />Cleveland Avenue N (CSAH 46) & I-35W NB Ramps/Twin Lakes Parkway <br />Cleveland Avenue N (CSAH 46) & County Road C W (CSAH 23) <br />County Road C W (CSAH 23) & Prior Avenue <br />Twin Lakes Parkway & Mount Ridge Road <br />Intersection TMCs were conducted on January 18, 2011 between the hours of 4:00 p.m. <br />and 6:00 p.m. for all four intersections. At the time the traffic counts were conducted, the <br />intersection of Twin Lakes Parkway and Prior Avenue was under construction and not <br />yet open to traffic. The south and east legs of the Twin Lakes Parkway and Mount Ridge <br />Road roundabout were also closed to traffic since they did not provide access to anything. <br />4 <br />July 2011 <br /> <br />
