signals at that location. coming from the east, headed westbound, the left turn provision would be on that side of the center line of the median crossing over. We're proposing at the Williams Bros. pipeline for some control at their entrances, and here again there's ~mother driveway with a left turn pocket here, and the property to the south would have a left turn-in pocket with option (in- audible) an opening here, and proceeding on east through here we have left these various holes in the median at the Briggs two main entrances and we have tried to control the turning movements here. This would be adjusted if it would be better to serve the property in some other manner. As we approach the railroad track we have added an outside lane for the transport trucks to come to a stop at the railroad crossing outside the lane of traffic, proceed across and they lose the lane again. Similarly we've added a lane here so they can come to a stop out of the traffic lane at the railroad and proceed and then get into the regular traffic lane again. At Long Lake Road, we have a full set of signals In there - new signals proposed. We would just take the existing median there and extend it a little bit, and we have a left turn pocket there - little widening of the road. Going back, each (inaudible) may be 75 to 100 feet to get the intersection fixed up and then as we approach the bridges - the bridges are about here - the ramp where you go west and come south (inaudible) turns out and comes (inaudible) here and this would be essentially the end of our improvement on County Road C. We carry the project on over to Cleveland Avenue because at Cleveland we have three legs of this intersection with the new signal system without having the south leg (in- audible) and widening and (inaudible) for a left turn provision to southbound, two northbound and left turn pocket here and right from the railroad track essentially to the intersection to make the signals fully capable of performing their function out there. The plan that we have here tonight is referred to probably as a preliminary plan. If you look at this plan closely, it will indicate through this area here - needs for additional right-of-way width. It's our intention to gain approval of this plan if it meets the community's needs, to proceed then with the right-of-way acquisition and then as we work with each property owner associated with the project we will revise and modify our plans and include their requirements within the plan. So hopefully next fall we can come in with a construction plan to present to the Council for approval, so what we're looking for is the approval of the alignment and grades so to speak, along with the (inaudible) that our initial intent is to go out and acquire additional right-of-way that 3
