Mr. Jay Hartman 60 <br /> July 19, 2000 <br /> Page 5 <br /> between Silver Lake Road and New Brighton Boulevard on St. Anthony Boulevard and making accessing <br /> the New Brighton Boulevard intersection faster): <br /> Thus,a total of five(5)detectors and one(1)push button would be recommended to be-installed to provide' <br /> detection at this intersection. <br /> Materials that would need to be purchased from Traffic Control Corporation would include the five (5) <br /> detectors,cable for each detector(and for the push button), the cabinet control equipment to operate the <br /> system, and a card rack within the controller cabinet to house the EVP cabinet control equipment (the <br /> controller cabinet at this intersection does not have a card rack suitable for mounting this equipment). <br /> The controller unit at this intersection is a Honeywell controller and is incapable of allowing for EVP to <br /> be made operational. Thus, Hennepin County would need to furnish and install a new controller unit to <br /> allow for EVP to be used at this intersection. In addition to a new controller unit,Hennepin County would <br /> have approximately 5 hours of labor and would have to install some materials to make this EVP system <br /> work. Hennepin County estimates that these materials and labor would cost the City approximately$3,350. <br /> 6. New Brighton Boulevard (CSAH 88) at St. Anthony Boulevard <br /> As-,discussed in the preceding intersection analysis, a push button is recommended to be installed in the <br /> nearby fire station to aid in emergency vehicle travel time from the fire station to this intersection. Also, <br /> wiring to a detector on the street light pole mentioned above is recommended to be installed to be able to <br /> advance call this signal system also for southbound police traffic. <br /> Sight distance for northbound New Brighton Boulevard is good, and no additional detection other than a <br /> signal mast arm mounted detector is needed. Southbound New Brighton Boulevard has sight distance <br /> limited by a curve in the roadway, and an additional detector mounted on the northwest signal pole is <br /> recommended to be installed (in addition to the signal mast arm mounted detector) to provide adequate <br /> sight distance for southbound traffic to the EVP system. <br /> Due to a hill and bridge east of the intersection, it is recommended that a separate advance detector <br /> (mounted on a pedestal pole)be 'installed near the existing bridge,.for westbound traffic to adequately be <br /> able to call the signal system. <br /> Thus,a total of five(5)detectors and one(1)push button would be recommended to be installed to provide <br /> detection at this intersection. A sixth means of detection (detector mounted on street light pole, as <br /> mentioned above for the adjacent intersection), would also be recommended for this signal system. <br /> However, this sixth detector(other than a cable to this detector) would be included in the costs to install <br /> the adjacent EVP system. <br /> • Materials that would need to be purchased from Traffic Control Corporation would include the five (5) <br /> detectors, cable for each detector (and for the push button and street light pole mounted detector), the <br /> cabinet control equipment to operate the system, and a card rack within the controller cabinet to house the <br />
