• PROJECT OBJECTIVES <br />• To develop an image for Larpenteur Avenue which draws from the <br />unique and significant urban design and natural resource elements <br />that frame it. <br />• To create linkages across the street which minimize the impact of <br />Larpenteur Avenue as a barrier. <br />• To minimize the potential adverse impacts of an improved <br />Larpenteur Avenue on adjacent land uses. <br />• To bring the public and representatives of major corridor elements <br />into the process as active participants. <br />• WORK PROGRAM <br />Phase i - Streefscape Plan <br />Phase 1 will include the following: <br />1. Abroad corridor evaluation including photoanalysis and <br />mapping, to develop an understanding of the relationship of <br />the corridor to its surroundings and identify areas that may <br />offer streetscape opportunities or require special treatments to <br />minimize roadway impacts. <br />2. The conduct of individual meetings (3 estimated) with key <br />players including the University of Minnesota, the City of <br />_ . Falcon Heights, the Fair Board, Coffman representatives, and <br />representatives of the Gibbs Farm and School to generate con- <br />cepts and ideas which relate to each and solicit project support <br />and understanding. <br />3. The formulation of streetscape plans and alternative concepts <br />for focus areas including street lighting, pavement treatments, <br />bus stops, landscaping, grading, entries and signage elements. <br />Final streetscape plans, at a schematic design level will be <br />• performed on AUTO CAD. <br />Proposal - Larpenteur Avenue streetscape Plans Page 3 <br />
