The project focused on preparing a comprehensive master plan for the Hardwood Creek Regional Trail in northern Washington County. The 12 mile corridor is primarily located along an abandoned railroad line stretching from the Ramsey County line on the south to the Chisago County Line on the north. The following figure highlights the location of the trail within the context of Washington County.

It also fills a gap in the Glacial Hills Regional Trail corridor, as identified on the map. As also shown, the proposed near-term route for the southern end of the Hardwood Creek Regional Trail is consistent with the local trail system plan. (Refer to page 49 for additional information on this alignment.) (Map: Trail and Sidewalk Plan, Map 7-F, City of Hugo, March 15, 2010.) An existing regional trail trailhead is already provided in Hugo just south of 146th Street. Additional parking is also available at City Hall, just north of this trailhead Hardwood Cree Regional Trail proposed route (near-term) follows Femvay Blvd IWashington - County CITY OF HUCO PARKS AND TRAILS The City of Hugo has an adopted trail and sidewalk plan, which was last updated in 2010. As the map illustrates, the Hardwood Creek Regional Trail is a central feature of the local system, serving as the predominant north -south connector through the city. It is also the main conduit linking the local trail system with the larger regional park and trail systems in Washington, Ramsey, Anoka, and Chisago Counties.

As the aerial illustrates, this continues to be a rural area with the same character and aesthetic appeal as the last segment. The at -grade crossing of Forest Road is the only one this segment, and is not heavily traveled. Here too, the City and County will coordinate roadway markings and signage treatments at this road crossing consistent with MN DNR and Mn/DOT standards — which may change if this road is upgraded (or when 180th Street is extended east and crosses the trail and Highway 61). An older but structurally -sound trail bridge is provided over the creek. The regional trail remains 10 feet wide. DEVELOPMENT ISSUES, CONSTRAINTS AND ENHANCEMENT OPPORTUNITIES There are no significant development issues related to the trail itself along this segment. As shown on the aerial image, the City of Hugo's trail system plan includes a local trail connection to the regional trail near 180th Street that is appropriate and desirable. BIGHT -OF -WAY AND PRIVATE PROPERTY FACTORS Since the trail already exists, there are no right-of-way issues of significance along this segment. There are also no apparent private property encroachment issues either. Washington County (Left) The existing bridge over a creek isfunctional and structurally sound, but the fence detracts from its aesthetics. (Above) The rural setting along this segment is appealing and a nice contrast to the more developed areas in Forest Lake and Hugo.

As the aerial illustrates, the trail continues through a rural area with a pleasant aesthetic, especially on the northern end. On the southern end, some commercial land uses are found along the trail, with the majority of these being screened from the trail with fencing and vegetation. The at -grade crossing of County Road 4 will be improved as part the development of a roundabout associated with Highway 61 improvements, as previously referenced on page 4. An at -grade crossing is also encountered at 165th Street. In each of these cases, the City and County will coordinate roadway markings and signage treatments consistent with MN DNR and Mn/DOT standards — which may change as these roads are upgraded over time. DEVELOPMENT ISSUES, CONSTRAINTS AND ENHANCEMENT OPPORTUNITIES There are no significant development issues related to the trail itself along this segment. As shown on the aerial image, the City of Hugo's trail system plan includes a local trail connection to the regional trail near County Road 4, which is also where the: Glacial Hills Regional Trail makes its connection coming from the west. Both the regional and local trail connections are appropriate and desirable.

Just north of 159th Street, the trail transitions from an open rural to rural/suburban residential character. At 159th Street, an at -grade crossing is encountered. There is also an at -grade crossing of a low use driveway around 156th Street. In each of these cases, the City and County will coordinate roadway markings and signage treatments consistent with MN DNR and Mn/DOT standards — which may change as these roads are upgraded over time.

As shown on the aerial, a number of at -grade crossing are encountered, with the ones at 147th and County Road 8 with enhanced crosswalk features and markings. In each of these cases, the City and County will coordinate roadway markings and signage treatments consistent with MN DNR and Mn/ DOT standards — which may change as these roads are upgraded over time. There is an existing regional trailhead at 145th Street, where the existing trail ends. Hugo City Hall just north of this area also provides trailhead-type facilities and overflow parking with direct access to the regional trail. DEVELOPMENT ISSUES, CONSTRAINTS AND ENHANCEMENT OPPORTUNITIES Starting at 147th Street, the proposed extension of the regional trail begins following the same abandoned rail corridor. This segment is expected to be purchased by WCRRA in 2013, and available for trail development thereafter. As shown on the aerial image, the City of Hugo's trail system plan includes a local trail connection at 147th Street, which is appropriate and desirable. An already developed segment of the Glacial Hills Regional Trail corridor connects to this regional trail at County Road 8, where it heads west to link up with the Anoka County regional trail system. RIGHT-OF-WAY AND PRIVATE PROPERTY FACTORS With the acquisition of the abandoned rail corridor between 145th and 140th Streets, there are no right-of-way issues of significance along this segment.

After making the street crossing, the trail heads west along the south side of 140th Street until it connects with an existing city trail along Fenway Avenue. The south side of the street was selected due to a wider boulevard and fewer crossings of private driveways. Once to Fenway Avenue, the regional trail follows an existing city trail that is in good physical condition. Relative to active rail corridor south of 140th Street, the trail alignment along Fenway Avenue is more pleasant, convenient, and safe. The trail is also 10 feet wide and consistent with regional standards. As shown on the aerial, there are only three at -grade crossings encountered, with the one at 140th Street/Highway 61 likely to have enhanced crosswalk features and markings. In each of these cases, the City and County will coordinate roadway markings and signage treatments consistent with MN DNR and Mn/DOT standards — which may change as these roads are upgraded over time. DEVELOPMENT ISSUES, CONSTRAINTS AND ENHANCEMENT OPPORTUNITIES There are no major development constraints along this segment of trail. The main development issue is that locating the trail on the south side of 140th Street would require removal of an existing 5 or 6 foot wide concrete sidewalk. Otherwise, development of this segment is relatively straightforward. BIGHT -OF -WAY AND PRIVATE PROPERTY FACTORS/ALTERNATIVE ALIGNMENTS With the acquisition of the abandoned rail corridor between 145th and 140th Streets, there are no right-of-way issues of significance along this segment. There are also no apparent private property encroachment issues along 140th Street either as long as the trail stays within the street right-of-way by essentially following the existing sidewalk alignment. As shown on the aerial, an optional longer-term alignment for the Hardwood Creek Regional Trail is shown, which would only occur if or when the active railroad tracks are abandoned. This is covered in more detail on page 55. Looking north at 140th Street, where the trail will fallow the abandoned railroad corridor. Washington -= County Avenue. The trail will be located on the south (right)side of the street where the sidewalk is currently located (Above) As shown, the trail will be on the south side of the street to avoid crossing private driveways, and where there is more space for the trail to placed within the existing right-of-way. -- 48 TRAIL SEGMENT #11 DETAIL DESCRIPTION AND ALIGNMENT INFORMATION (2 OF 2) r- Long-term optional HardN ood Creek Regional Trail alignment (if active railroad is abandoned) 49 HARDWOOD CREEK REGIONAL TRAIL MASTER PLAN TRAIL SEGMENT #12 DETAIL DESCRIPTION AND ALIGNMENT INFORMATION (1 OF 2) SEGMENT DESCRIPTION / OVERALL CHARACTER The proposed Hardwood Creek Regional Trail continues south along Fenway Avenue following the existing city trail alignment down to its current termination point at 130th Street. The trail remains 10 feet wide and consistent with regional standards. There are only two at -grade crossings encountered, with at 132nd Street and one at 130th Street. In each of these cases, the City and County will coordinate roadway markings and signage treatments consistent with MN DNR and Mn/DOT standards. As shown on the aerial, the proposed trail continues southeast through an open space area until it makes its way back to the railroad corridor, at which point it heads south again following the railroad/Falcon Avenue corridor. DEVELOPMENT ISSUES, CONSTRAINTS AND ENHANCEMENT OPPORTUNITIES The segment of trail that runs through the open space will require the use of boardwalk in select locations. To the extent possible, this will be minimized to control costs. (Refer to Trail Design Standards, Features, and Amenities on page 60 for a graphic illustration of a boardwalk.) Limited space between the street and active railroad tracks along the segment of trail following the railroad/Falcon Avenue corridor will likely have some impacts on ditch -type wetlands and areas of natural vegetation, each of which require varying levels of mitigation as part of development of the trail. There will also be a host of issues related to the placement of the trail adjacent to an active rail line that will have to be addressed, most namely maintaining a minimum separation between the two. (Refer to Active Railroad Corridor Alignment Design Factors and Cross -Sections on page 54 for additional information on this segment of trail.) RIGHT-OF-WAY AND PRIVATE PROPERTY FACTORS/ ALTERNATIVE ALIGNMENTS The segment of trail that follows the railroad/Falcon Avenue corridor will require a right-of-way agreement with the BNSF railroad in areas where the trail encroaches within its right-of-way. I existing city trail will become the regional trail. Washington County trail would be located on the east (right) side of the road (Above) As illustrated, the trail will traverse through an open space as it makes its way from Fenway Avenue back to the railroad corridor. 50 TRAIL SEGMENT #12 DETAIL DESCRIPTION AND ALIGNMENT INFORMATION (2 OF 2) V. 7 7s r Proposed Hard load ° 4t -grade '= Creek Regional 7rud (existing local hail) 3t rade eroaszng Creek Regional Trail IN ,R 130th St .1 Local trail connection (future, approximate location) Trail (if active 51 HARDWOOD CREEK REGIONAL TRAIL MASTER PLAN TRAIL SEGMENT #13 DETAIL DESCRIPTION AND ALIGNMENT INFORMATION (I OF 2) .SEGMENT DESCRIPTION / OVERALL CHARACTER The last segment of the proposed Hardwood Creek Regional Trail continues south following the railroad/Falcon Avenue corridor until it terminates in Bald Eagle/Otter Lake Regional Park. Once into the park, the trail will connect with the developed area further to the south. Ultimately, the trail will connect to Ramsey County's regional trail system that will continue south along the Highway 61 corridor. There is only one at -grade crossings encountered at 120th Street. As with other crossings, the City and County will coordinate roadway markings and signage treatments consistent with MN DNR and Mn/DOT standards.
