St. Anthony 2040 Comprehensive Plan Chapter 6: Transportation <br /> <br />78 <br /> <br />Existing Capacity Problems on Arterial Roads <br />At the planning level, capacity problems are identified by comparing the existing <br />number of lanes with current traffic volumes. FIGURE 6-7 and FIGURE 6-5 illustrate <br />the existing number of lanes on arterial roadways within the City. FIGURE 6-6 <br />illustrates existing traffic volumes on Principal Arterial, A-Minor Arterials and <br />other significant roadways within the City. <br />As shown in the table, I-35W is the only arterial roadway located within or <br />adjacent to the City that has more than four lanes. All other arterial roadways <br />have four or fewer lanes. Two arterial roadways transition between the number of <br />lanes. In some locations, these roadways have two lanes, four lanes, or three <br />lanes (one travel lane in each direction with a center two-way left-turn lane). All <br />St. Anthony Village existing and forecasted 2040 traffic volumes are below or <br />within the planning level capacity thresholds shown in FIGURE 6-4, however, some <br />congestion does occur along some primary routes, such as Silver Lake Road, <br />due to operational constraints at intersections. <br />
