The existing street section varies. There is approximately 7-15 inches of sandy gravel overlain <br />with 4-7 inches of bituminous pavement. <br />3¯¤¢¨ « #onsiderations <br />A.3³±¤¤³ $¤²¨¦­ <br /> <br />The majority of Victoria is a 32 foot wide road with bituminous curbing in place for the majority <br />of the length north of Roselawn. The road is divided into two 12 foot wide traffic lanes along <br />with 4 foot shoulders on both sides of the street. The posted speed limit is 40 miles per hour. <br />1.0 ³§¶ ¸ <br /> <br />There <br />The majority of Victoria Street does not have a sidewalk or path along the road. <br />is an existing 8 foot bituminous trail along the east/west portion of Victoria <br />Street that ties into Reservoir Woods. <br />includes a <br />recommendation to construct a pathway along Victoria Street. <br />2.Parking <br /> <br />Parking is currently allowed on both sides of Victoria Street. Except for the time period <br />around the State Fair (a Park and Ride lot is operated at the New Life Presbyterian <br />Church), there does not appear to be a significant demand for parking except for an area <br />around the Reservoir Woods trailhead. Typical residential on street parking is evident <br />along the corridor. <br />3.2® £ !«¨¦­¬¤­³ <br /> <br />With the exception of an 800 foot section that runs essentially east-west, Victoria Street <br />runs north-south between Larpenteur Ave and County Road B. The existing street right- <br />of-way is variable through the project corridor but is 66 to 76 feet wide, with the road <br />constructed roughly in the center of the right-of-way. <br />There are two horizontal curves along Victoria Street. The first curve, located at the <br />intersection with Roselawn Avenue, is controlled with an all way stop. The second curve <br />occurs where the path along the roadway ties into Reservoir Woods Park. This curve is <br />substandard for the posted speed limit and State Aid standards. It is signed with curve <br />advisory speed signs (20 mph) and chevrons through the curve. <br />Amendment: There are several vertical curves along the corridor. At least two of these <br />curves do not meet the geometric requirements for a 40 mile per hour design speed. In <br />order to meet these requirements, the roadway would have to be elevated in some <br />locations by as much as three feet. <br />The project corridor has five street intersections. The intersection at Roselawn Ave is an <br />all- way stop. The County Road B intersection is signalized. The intersection with <br />Larpenteur Avenue is a three way intersection with one way stop control on the Victoria <br />approach. <br />None of these intersections have a significant crash history. <br />4.4± ¥¥¨¢ - ­ ¦¤¬¤­³ <br /> <br />Victoria Street serves as a collector road.
