<br />III ,r! Tnll'i:"pr,nation Allalysi~; <br />Public; ,V1t.~:til!i! (\llnll'!<1Ji,o <br />Pa~p~ I) of'"I:: <br /> <br />167111 Avenue is a dangerous intersection that needs improvement. Sight in both <br />directions is limited due to hills alJd curves. <br /> <br />Centex development in Ramsey on the east side ofTH 47 ~ they have turn lanes, <br />but it is still extremely difficultfor southbound traffic to cross TH 47 due to the <br />curve prior to the development entry. Once this housing development isfidly <br />developed, I believe that there will be severe accidents at this intersection. <br /> <br />TH 47 is risky to drive from TH 10 to St. Francis except for one short recently <br />updated stretch. There are to many slow curves and driveways etc. This is the <br />back way I take to go to and from north to avoid busy Blaine on Highway 65 or <br />Highway 101/169 which is at times very dangerous due to congestionfrom all the <br />lights including Elk River. <br /> <br />Curves are fun. <br /> <br />Railroad <br /> <br />Overpass for railroad on TH 47. <br /> <br />Eliminate the rail crossing in Anoka. <br /> <br />Add a bridge across railroad tracks on TH 47. <br /> <br />Railroad neeqs either an overpass of underpass on TH 47. <br /> <br />Need overpass at railroad tracks and Schwartzman's. <br /> <br />The biggest back~up is caused by the railroad tracks near the fairgrounds and if you plan <br />to run Northstar on those tracks it is going to be every Ramsey resident's worse <br />nightmare. <br /> <br />Further the increased train traffic willfurther screw up TH 47 during the rush hour. <br /> <br />I hope you can do something with the railroad tracks at Schwartzman's Recycling. It's <br />very dangerous, as well as really causing traffic congestion both northbound and <br />southbound on TH 47. ' <br /> <br />Railroad tracks in Anoka on TH 47 dangerous - slow traffic. <br /> <br />Don't discount the effects of trains running at peak times by the fairgrounds and <br />Schwartzman's. These create a huge queue of cars that overwhelm Aqokaor Bunker <br />Lake after the trains pass. I would expect this to only get worse when Northstar <br />commuting starts up. <br /> <br />At Sunfish Lake Boulevard, many big trucks cause problems at railroad., <br /> <br />Railroad crossing causes significant delays. It is hard to se at railroad crossing due to <br />large hill and curve by fairgrounds. Our family has been caught ofJguard several time <br />heading south on TH 47. As you drive around the curve by Schwartzman's Recycling, <br />traffic is often stopped due to trains of semi traffic. The sqfety concern is that you can't <br />see that the traffic is stopped until you make it around the corner. Then you need to clam <br />on your brakes and pray the car behind you is paying attention.. . <br /> <br />Shoulders <br /> <br />K: \il j (l66.0.) \,i\drni n\~>h:;:rl'i n\~ ~l'l.lbi~' !\.'fc.! 1'!n~~".n(:Ol)l.\ )A\C(l\)llll~'ltt~.dli;: <br /> <br />P33 <br />
