INTRODUCTION <br />Within the past four years, three roads in the City of Little Canada have, by mutual= <br />agreement of the city and county, been removed from county jurisdiction. The juris- <br />dictional exchange of these roads, Jackson Street, Lakeshore Drive and County Road C, <br />was prompted by the decreasing importance of the roads in the county transportation <br />system. Ramsey County has also examined the need for Demont Avenue in the City of <br />Little Canada to remain under the county's jurisdiction. <br />DESCRIPTION <br />Demont Avenue (County Road 110) from Rice Street (T.H. 49) to Viking Drive is located <br />in the city of Little Canada (see Project Location Map, Figure 1). This .75 mile <br />section of bituminous roadway is 20 feet in width with gravel shoulders. The right <br />of way width is 66 feet. <br />Within the area bounded by T.N. 36, County Road C, Rice Street and I -35E, there are <br />two roads under county jurisdiction which are functionally classified as local roads: <br />County Road B -2 and Demont Avenue (see Functional Classification Map, Figure 2). <br />Another road within this area, Viking Drive, is under the jurisdiction of the <br />Minnesota Department of Transportation, and is functionally classified as a local <br />road. Other roads within the area are under city jurisdiction. <br />The existing traffic volume for Demont Avenue is 1550 west of Jackson Street and <br />850 east of Jackson (see Traffic Volumes Illustration, Figure 2). For year 2000, <br />volumes on Demont are projected at 1800. ADT west of Jackson Street and 2100 ADT <br />east of Jackson Street. <br />1 <br />15 <br />
