crosswalks. However, there may an opportunity to have pedestrian countdown signals installed to assist the pedestrians in crossing the street. Also, if approved, the new trail and ped ramp in the southwest corner of County Road B and Cleveland will provide a paved surface up to the existing pedestrian button that will make it easier to access that button to bring up the WALK symbol. 5. Consistent green arrow favoring left turn from Cleveland Ave facing north onto Cty B westbound, especially during rush hour (sometimes we get the green arrow during rush hour, and sometimes we do not). There were several complaints of difficulty seeing speeding cars coming off highways southbound on Cleveland with rounded hill and blocked view with turn lane in opposite direction. Staff will work with Mn /DOT to ensure that the left turn arrow is available to left turners during every cycle. One alternative would be to convert the left turn signal to being able to turn left only on a green arrow (referred to as PROTECTED ONLY, whereby currently the signal is operating as a PROTECTED /PERMISSIVE option). There may some other ways to operate this to provide a more consistent operation and expectation for the left turn arrow. Again, staff will workwith Mn /DOT and try to get something implemented this summer. 6. Amore prominent "No Outlet" sign that is visible before entering this section of Cty B (at the intersection of Cleveland Ave and Cty B) so that car and truck drivers can be forewarned in time (often these vehicles drive all the way to the end, not realizing its a dead end, and then speed out of our neighborhood). Currently there are two DEAD END signs posted on County Road B just west of Cleveland. It MAY be possible to move these a little closer to Cleveland Ave, but by a significant amount. The real struggle is trying to communicate the DEAD END /NO OUTLET condition to vehicles BEFORE they turn. There may be some options, but we need to work with Mn /DOT and Ramsey County to determine what they would allow on their facilities. Again, staff will try to get something implemented, if allowed, this summer. SWARN is a non- profit volunteer effort to empower Roseville neighborhoods.
