Jankowski <br />CiD' Engineer <br />City. of Ramsey <br />151 ~.~ Now-then Boulevard NW <br />Ramsey, M-N 55303 <br /> <br />Re: Median Extension on CSAH 112 East of TH 47 <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Jmzkowski: <br /> <br />This lexer is in response to your letter dated July 2, 2003 indicating that your Public Works <br />Committee would like ~o have us include a dght turn lane for eastbound CSAH 116 east of TH <br />47 to facilitate U-rums. <br /> <br />We have analyzed the ability for vehicles to make U-turns under the current condhions and find <br />that there is adequate room to mak.¢ th/s maneuver without the additional turn lane (see attached.) <br />In addition, the cost of adding a rum lane that addresses curb and gutter, storm sewer, private. <br />utility, and right-of-way impacts would be too cost prohibitive when it does nothing .to address <br />the immediate crash problems and, as described above, is not necessary for U-turns." <br /> <br />Based on fffis information, we are proceeding with'the median extension as planned without any <br />additional work. <br /> <br />'If you have any further questions, please feel free to let me know. <br /> <br />Sincerely, _ <br /> <br />County. Engineer <br /> <br />Cc: <br /> <br />Commissioner Denn/s Berg <br />Craig Gray, Ci~, of Anoka Engineer <br />Project File <br /> <br />Affirmative Action / Equal Opportunity Employer 10 <br /> <br /> <br />
