1988 TRUNK HIGHWAY 10 CORRIDOR STUDY <br /> <br />The TH 10 Corridor Study was prepared to analyze market, land use, and transportation <br />issues pertaining to land parcels abutting and in close proximity to TH 10. Results of the <br />analysis were to be used to guide the corridor's land use and frontage road access plans by <br />specific City and private sector actions. <br /> <br />At the time the TH 10 Corridor Study was prepared, daily traffic volumes on TH 10 were in <br />the 19,500 to 26,500 range. <br /> <br />IDENTIFIED ISSUES <br /> <br />Major transportation issues from the study are outlined below: <br /> <br />· Excessive land use access provided along TH 10. The Corridor Study documented 53 <br /> private access points along TH 10 within a 2.65 mile segment. <br /> <br />· Illo~cally spaced median breaks. Eleven median were identified within the same 2.65 <br /> mile segment. Five of these were not associated with intersections. <br /> <br />· Location of railroad right-of-way to the north of TH 10 only provides limited storage <br /> area for southbound vehicles queuing to cross TH 10 on northbound cross streets. <br /> <br />· Need for north/south street overpass across the railroad right-of-way at either CR 83 <br /> (Armstrong Boulevard), CR 56 (Ramsey Boulevard), or CR 57 (Sunfish Lake <br /> Boulevard). <br /> <br />· Need to provide additional Mississippi River crossing. <br /> Lack of direct access between Armstrong Boulevard and Ramsey Boulevard. <br /> observed that the intersection of Armstrong Boulevard and TI-I 10 was controlled by <br /> <br />· <br /> <br />It was <br />a STOP sign. <br /> <br />RECOM2YIENDATIONS <br /> <br />The following recommendations were made in the TH 10 Corridor Study: <br /> <br />· Extend McKinley Street westward from the City of Anoka into Ramsey. <br /> <br />alignment identified for extended McKinley Street was just north of the Burlington <br /> <br />Working Paper #1 <br />City of Ramsey Comprehensive Plan Update '. <br />Transportation Plan Element <br />Page 5 <br /> <br /> <br />
