<br />I. INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />The Roseville Transportation Plan is the transportation element of the Roseville <br />Comprehensive Plan. Roseville is a fully developed suburb with a well- <br />established roadway system. Only a few new roads will be required, primarily <br />in the non-residential, western part of the City where redevelopment is <br />occurring. The plan will examine ways to upgrade and maintain the existing <br />transportation system and to make better use of h'ansportation rights-of-way for <br />all modes, including transit, bicycles, and pedestrians. <br /> <br />The Transportation Plan functions as a guide to identify the City's existing and <br />proposed transportation network. It is a tool that helps prioritize major <br />investments needed to meet the City's transportation needs and to support land <br />use goals and objectives. The Plan will: <br /> <br />· Identify major capacity deficiencies for existing roadways. <br /> <br />· Identify improvements to TH 36. <br /> <br />· Identify roadway improvements to improve access, operations, and/ or divert <br />congestion from areas where capacity improvements are not feasible. <br /> <br />· Short range improvement plan. <br /> <br />· Address travel demand management/ h'ansit strategies to reduce congestion. <br /> <br />· Address bicycle/pedestrian issues. <br /> <br />· Classify each roadway according to its primary function. <br /> <br />· Identify which roads should be under jurisdiction of which level of <br />government, as outlined in the Ramsey County road jurisdictional study. <br /> <br />. Prioritize the improvements recommended for implementation. <br /> <br />II. TRANSPORTATION POLICIES <br /> <br />· The Roseville h'ansportation system, as ultimately developed, must allow for <br />the safe and efficient transfer of all goods and peoples utilizing the system. <br /> <br />Roseville Comprehensive Plan - 2003 Update <br /> <br />Transportation - Page 1 of 28 <br />
