<br />:tty <br /> <br />CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br />Topic Report: Update on Armstrong <br />Boulevard and TH 10 Interchange <br />By: Tim Rimmer, City Engineer <br /> <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />The City entered into a Joint Powers Agreement (JP A) with Anoka County on May 12, 2005 for <br />construction of certain regional roadway improvements associated with Ramsey Town Center. One of <br />the associated projects was the upgrade of Armstrong Boulevard at TH 10, with planned upgrades <br />similar to those already completed on Ramsey and Sunfish Lake Boulevards. The Armstrong project <br />was scheduled for construction in 2009; however during the plan approval process in 2008 the City <br />Council directed staff to investigate the option of constructing an overpass instead of the proposed <br />interim improvements. The City Council agreed to a JPA revision on March 10,2009, and City and <br />County staff began investigating options for an Armstrong Boulevard interchange over the BNSF <br />railroad tracks and TH 10 with the chosen consultant WSB Engineering. <br /> <br />The project team is preparing for the first public open house, scheduled for Wednesday February 17, <br />2010, and staff would like the Council to get a firsthand look at the information that will be presented at <br />that meeting. Staff and a representative from WSB will be in attendance to present the information that <br />has been compiled to date and answer any questions the Council may have related to this project. <br /> <br />Action Statement: . <br /> <br />This item is for informational purposes only. <br /> <br />Attachments: <br /> <br />Public open house notice <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br /> <br />DirectorOfPublicWorks. /// I · n <br />City Administrator ~ f..r--..L/ <br /> <br />CCWS: <br /> <br />2/9/10 <br />
