<br />Prepared by: Bolton & Menk, Inc. RECOMMENDATIONS <br />Labore Road Corridor Study ǀ 0N1.130034 Page 9 <br />VI. RECOMMENDATIONS <br />The public engagement performed with this Labore Road Corridor Study suggests that community <br />members have a strong desire to see improvements made to Labore Road, specifically with <br />respect to pedestrian improvements, speed reduction, and traffic safety. The technical analysis <br />suggests that the community concerns have merit and that improvements could be made to <br />Labore Road to address the needs and desires of the public. Improvements to Labore Road will <br />come at a cost. Through annual budgeting processes, City staff and the City Council can begin <br />programming improvements as funding is available. Alternatively, the City should consider <br />applying to one or more of the grant programs discussed previously in this Report. The following <br />represent the general infrastructure recommendations moving forward. <br /> Roadway Reconfiguration <br />Option 3 and Option 4 are technically feasible and have broad community support. Both <br />options are estimated to cost $2.0M to $2.5M, excluding costs associated with road <br />pavement replacement. Either of these options would need to be performed in coordination <br />with a road pavement replacement project due to the roadway narrowing required. The <br />improvements could be performed in segments over time as funding allows. <br /> <br />Exhibit 9 – Roadway Reconfiguration – Option 3 Rendering
