For purposes of this review, the mall area is defined asCounty Road D to the <br />north, I-35W to the west, County Road B to the south, and Hamline Avenueto the east. This <br />transportation infrastructure review focuseson three key tasksinvestigating potential capacity <br />improvements at the Snelling Avenue/County Road C intersection, anew pedestrian bridge crossing <br />Highway 36 west of Snelling Avenue, and general multimodal improvementsto address system gaps. <br />The goalis of this reviewis to better understand the feasibilityand costs associated with the identified <br />regional transportation infrastructure improvements. This information will help the Cityplan, prioritize, <br />and identify potential funding sources.

Both County Road Cand Snelling Avenue <br />(also known as Mn Highway 51) are classified as A-Minor arterial roadways. Snelling Avenueis <br />generally a four-lane divided expressway thathas a combination of interchanges and at-grade <br />intersectionsalong the corridor.
