This should <br />include re-establishing the ditch at the south access so it cannot be used as an illegal access. Multiple <br />access points create additional conflict which has been shown to increase crash rates. <br /> <br />The right turn lane should be extended to the north access. This may require reconstruction/restriping, <br />depending on the thickness and width of the shoulder in this location. <br /> <br />We recommend a dedicated southbound left turn lane over the current bypass lane at the access as they <br />have been shown to be a much more effective tool for reducing conflicts and reducing crash rates. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this comment, please contact Kaare Festvog in MnDOT’s East Area <br />Traffic Safety Unit at Kaare.Festvog@state.mn.us or 651-234-7814. <br /> <br />Work Zones <br />The plan will need Traffic Control pay item and notes on the plan sheets on traffic control for TH61 <br />work and associated impacts. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this comment, please contact Kevin Farraher at <br />Kevin.Farraher@state.mn.us or 651-775-1270. <br /> <br />Signal Design <br />The fiber optic cable (36sm) in conduit running on the East side of TH 61 between the signal at 152nd <br />street north to 147th street south will have to replaced and tested if damaged during construction of this <br />project.
