WSB has been retained by Anoka County to prepare the preliminary <br />design for the project. Conceptual plans are currently being developed to obtain community <br />feedback. A public open house is currently planned for Tuesday, February 25, 2025. <br />The current concept includes roundabouts at Lilac and 121s' Avenue NE (Blaine) with restricted <br />access (Right in/Right out) at the remaining local street connections, north of Lilac. Bradley <br />Street access, south of Lilac is proposed to be eliminated. WSB will be completing additional <br />traffic modeling, as part of the project, to address City staff concerns regarding the potential <br />access limitations and changing traffic patterns. Information and concept designs generated <br />from this project will be used to supplement the City's Mapping NW Main master planning <br />process. <br />Representatives of WSB and Anoka County will be present to discuss the project and obtain <br />preliminary feedback from the council. <br />REQUESTED COUNCIL DIRECTION <br />None required.
