10 • The Hodgson/CR J intersection is to be signalized prior to or as part of any significant development in the study area. This is to be a cooperative effort of Anoka and Ramsey Counties, the Cities of Lino Lakes and Shoreview, and developers. Specific design requirements are to be determined. Signals were installed at the intersection in 2008 and modified in 2017. • Other road improvement needs such as additional lanes, median, and the like will be designed in cooperation with Anoka and Ramsey Counties, the Cities of Lino Lakes and Shoreview, and developers, as appropriate. Specific design requirements are to be determined. Lyngblomsten hired SEH to prepare an Intersection Analysis and Alternatives report for the entire CSAH 49 (Hodgson Road) and CR J (Ash Street) intersection. The proposed improvements have been noted above. Anoka County Highway Department is proposing to be the lead agency on design and letting of the CSAH 49 and CR J road and intersection reconstruction project. Cost sharing details between the entities will be finalized when estimates are complete. Potential road reconstruction will be in 2022 or 2023 to coincide with the Lyngblomsten development. • The quantity of development of the area will be limited to ensure that traffic generation does not exceed the capacities of Hodgson Road, the intersection with Co Rd J, or the new access. Development shall not create the need for a traffic signal at the new full access on Hodgson Road. o Planning for the area must look forward to full development of the study area so as not to allow one project to “use up capacity” so that other sites cannot develop without creating the need for a signal at the new access. As noted, a traffic analysis was completed for the development. Peak trip generation from the proposed development is approximately 1/3 of the trip generation provided for in the Master Plan. No signal is proposed at the new full access. • Right of way will be dedicated with development to ensure adequate right of way for Hodgson and CR J as well as for the internal circulation system, as necessary. The final plat dedicates additional right-of-way ranging from 27 ft to 45 ft along CSAH 49 (Hodgson Road) creating 60 ft to 75 ft of dedicated right-of-way from section line and/or roadway centerline. The final plat also dedicates an additional 10-17 ft of right-of-way along CR J (Ash Street) to provide a full 60 ft from section line. The internal public road is dedicated with 60 ft of right-of-way. Overall, the proposed development is consistent with the Transportation and Access goals of the Master Plan.
