Page 3 of 5 <br />Crash data over the last five years from Mounds View PD. Since 2016, there have been no <br />pedestrian or driver fatalities on the Boulevard. There have been three serious injuries; two <br />drivers and one pedestrian. <br />Intersection <br /># of Crashes <br /># of Fatalities/Serious Injuries <br />Long Lake Road <br />31 <br />Drivers seriously injured (2017 incident) <br />County Road 1 <br />30 <br />None <br />County H2 <br />30 <br />None <br />Woodale Drive <br />29 <br />None <br />Groveland Road <br />26 <br />Pedestrian seriously injured <br />Edgewood <br />22 <br />None <br />County Road H <br />17 <br />None <br />Spring Lake Road <br />11 <br />None <br />Red Oak/Silver Lake <br />6 <br />None <br />Specific to the trail, as part of the 2022 street project, the pedestrian/bike trail will be completed <br />on the south and north side as part of that project. <br />Policy Questions: <br />1. Beautification of the corridor probably fits best in this area. The real policy question is <br />what amount of fiscal resources is the council willing to allocate to this endeavor? <br />Possibilities to beautify, which includes improving functionality to entice more use — <br />benches, picnic tables, signage; for example. <br />a. New/more robust monument signs at entry points. <br />b. Benches along trail. <br />c. Picnic benches along trail. <br />d. Landscaping (very strategic) along trail. <br />e. Burying of power lines. <br />f. Fountain in retention pond(s) <br />Safety at intersections, based on the data, could presumably be improved by redesign <br />and reconstruction. Estimates exceed $1 million per intersection. Where is this on the <br />Council priority list? <br />Commented [DPI]: ADA is Ramsey County Responsibility, <br />must have plan in place by 2024 to upgrade all ADA PED RAMPS <br />Commented [IS2]: There's two pans to this: (1) pedestrian <br />safety (e.g. ADA compliant curb ramps); and (2) motorist (e.g. <br />improved sight triangles). Realignment is only practical at <br />Groveland. But, realignment is not necessarily the best option (R- <br />type Left -turn lanes may be better, and much less expensive). <br />
