This is a vicinity map. I assume everyone here is familiar with the location. This would be a traffic map - l2,900 cars in 1973 on Silver Lake Road from old Highway 8 to the west - around 14,OOO to 15,OOO between there and 35W, and dropping to 8,900 from 35W to Cleveland. A typical section indicates concrete curb and gutters with four lanes - l2 foot lanes - two in either direction. You will notice on the north, or left side, a pro- posed walk - bikeway type facility. That occurs in New Brighton and St. Anthony and they would be asked to participate in the cost of that. It does not occur in Roseville. I won't dwell on it. The initial plan sheet from Highcrest going east - the four lane roadway - hardly any change in grade. A little bit of lowering on the top of the hill on the east side coming over the hill to try to improve the site distance. Again lowering the road maybe six inches to a foot at most, and here we're coming into the garages on the left hand upper side of the (inaudible) just east of the PDQ store and the road is starting to widen out. It's widening out to make provision for a pro- tected left turn pocket at old Highway 8. This is a typical section showing an additional 16 feet for the left turn pocket. This would be the intersection here and here. There is no pres- ent development in Roseville in this area through here from the corner of old Highway 8 to rhe west back to about this point (inaudible) the garages from the first property ownership where we're asking l6 additional feet of right of way to the west city limits (inaudible) providing for the left turn movemenr into the PDQ store and prohibiting (inaudible) developing a free flowing right turn here at the intersection. practically no change to the intersection itsQlf in the north/south direction. The introduction of a median again on the east side of old Highway 8 headed toward new Highway 8. Here, as you approach new Highway 8 the signals will be revamped. We're proposing a free right hand lane to accelerate some of this traffic on new Highway 8. Southbound there's a large (inaudible). Also the returning traffic going north would be encouraged to use Long Lake Road and tie into 8 between there and the root beer stand. On the east side of new 8 again a short piece of median with a free right turn lane. The existing development on that side and the north side, I believe, is the Perkins Cake and Steak in that area. No additional right of way required and at Long Lake Road the median would end with a fully developed left turn from 3
