Level of Service <br />Level of Service (LOS) is used to describe the operating conditions of an intersection. <br />Facilities are given letter designations from "A" (best operating conditions) to "F" (worst <br />conditions). <br />Section 1001.013(2)(c), Premature Subdivision of the City's Subdivision Ordinance <br />establishes minimum Level Of Service (LOS) requirements. The ordinance states that if <br />the LOS is A or B, the proposed subdivision shall not the degrade the LOS more than one <br />grade. If the LOS is C or D, it shall not degrade the LOS. Intersections with a LOS of E <br />or F must be improved to ensure a LOS of D or better. <br />Existing Peak Hour LOS <br />Proposed Peak Hour LOS <br />OKIntersection <br />A.M. Peak <br />P.M.

They have <br />identified the need for right and left turn lanes on CSAH 54 (20t Avenue).

Per the recommended corridor <br />plan, future full -access intersections near Nadeau Acres are every'/4 mile. No access (full <br />or partial) is proposed onto CSAH 34 (Birch Street) from Nadeau Acres. A pedestrian <br />(trail or sidewalk) corridor will connect Nadeau Acres to Birch Street. <br />I-35E/CR J/Centerville Road <br />Staff is aware of current traffic concerns at I-35E/CR J/Centerville Road but these are <br />outside the scope of Nadeau Acres. These interchanges are currently under evaluation by <br />other government agencies. Ramsey County is working on a federal transportation <br />funding application to reconstruct bridge and ramp terminals and CR J/Centerville Road <br />intersection. Local and County staffs are also working with state representatives on <br />possible preliminary design funding in the State's bonding bill. Anoka County is also <br />considering a transportation funding application for improvement of the Centerville <br />Road/CR J intersection. <br />13 <br />
