Before further development, please address the following issues: <br />Traffic <br />• There are no plans at this time to expand US61 to a 4-lane facility. <br />• If safety concerns arise at 134th St or 137th St due to people avoiding the signals at 130th St or <br />140th St, there is no certainty that additional traffic control would be the solution. Any <br />additional traffic control would have to meet warrants and spacing guidelines as well as fit <br />into the larger plan for the corridor. Potential solutions to explore would likely include <br />limiting movements at these intersections. <br />• Any changes to speed limits would require a traffic study to be done by MnDOT. Additional <br />access with increased side street traffic rarely impacts traveled speeds significantly. If there <br />is a wish to lower speeds on 130th and 140th in the future, engineering solutions for traffic <br />calming would likely be necessary. <br />For questions regarding these comments please contact Kaare Festvog at 651-234-7814 or <br />kaare. festvo gnstate.mn.us. <br />Design <br />There appears to be grading identified on MnDOT right of way however on Sheet 8 there are <br />notes that there is a difference between the existing and proposed right of way line. Please <br />reconcile these differences. <br />For questions regarding these comments please contact Nancy Jacobson at 651.234.7647 or <br />Nancy.L.Jacobsongstate.mn.us. <br />
