• • 21.3 Require a traffic impact analysis for all development projects within the AUAR area. The traffic impact analysis will assist the City and other road authorities in determining the appropriate mitigation measures that are required to mitigate impacts of a specific development proposal. 21.4 Work with appropriate road authorities to mitigate the impact of the additional traffic on the on the regional system, specifically Interstates 35W and 35E, by reconstructing each to provide a six -lane cross - section consistent with the recommendations outlined in the I -35 IRC. It should be noted that it was determined that an expansion will be necessary even without the development scenarios used in this analysis. As the interstates serve a much larger area, the projected growth of the entire Twin Cities region should warrant expansion by the year 2030. 21.5 Prioritize alternative travel modes within the AUAR study area and require project proposers to address alternative travel modes (e.g., buses, bicyclists, and pedestrians) by identifying appropriate accommodations. 21.6 Consider the need for additional infrastructure improvements (see item #21.2) in future updates or amendments to the Comprehensive Plan. Submit the plan update to the appropriate agencies (i.e., FHWA, MnDOT, Met Council, etc.). 21.7 Require project proposers to follow all appropriate guidelines and policies related to traffic nose and noise walls. 21.8 Require that site plans for each of the developments include measures such as appropriate setback distances, earthen berms, noise walls, and appropriate site design to reduce the impact of traffic noise to residential areas. 21.9 Continue to require the implementation of the conditions of approval for the Eagle Brook Church relating to mitigating traffic impacts. 21.10 Achieve effective traffic operations within the city by requiring that site plans make use of access management practices to promote sate, effective traffic flow. 21.11 Require project proposers to follow the Anoka County Highway Department Development Review Process Manual (dated December 2003.) 21.12 Continue to coordinate capital improvement programming with applicable transportation authorities.
