What is the 8,._raqe daily traf~ic capacity for Hinne20ta <br />Avenue at Rice Strdet? <br /> <br />2. Is this intersection haccident prone.Q and is it especially <br />dangerous in icy conditions ,as the residents claiJo)? <br /> <br />3. can traffic emerqinCj from the development onto Minnesota and <br />turninq left (west) execute the turn safely and expeditiously? <br /> <br />It turning right (east) Ojato Minn&sota with the intent of <br />then turning left (north) onte, Rice, can this maneuver be <br />safely executed? <br /> <br />In the event of fire or other eme~~en~y, is the site easily <br />accessible? <br /> <br />t. <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />;.~ <br /> <br />-These questions would equ&lly apply to a single family ~ri~e- <br />~ in the same location. Sat, will the creation of seventy- <br />three households here create & traffic bottleneck or other <br />hRzard? <br /> <br />J <br /> <br />4. If development trcofflc is permitted on l!arion street (as a <br />third possible access), would that significantly ameliorate <br />problems at Minnesota and Ric~? <br /> <br />If the property were devel~ped for commercial use. the traffic <br />concerns would still exist and would only be intensified. The <br />ultimate concern is now the traffic can best be mana~ed, and are <br />the proposed accesses the best we can d~. <br /> <br />Thank you for any insights. <br />
