These two <br />roadways are projected to fall above the planning -level capacity by 2025 with <br />TH 169 currently operating above a volume/capacity ratio of 1.0 and CSAH 81 <br />experiencing volumes within the nearing congestion level. Both corridors are known <br />for having higher than preferred volume to capacity ratios and will require mitigation <br />to improve overall vehicle flow. <br />The TH 169 and CSAH 81 corridors are recognized by MnDOT, Hennepin County, <br />and several cities as becoming increasingly congested in the future. Neither MnDOT <br />nor Hennepin County have current plans for expansion due to funding constraints. <br />However, various improvements to adjacent collector roads and at -grade <br />intersections will continue to be necessary to maintain acceptable corridor <br />operations. The City of Dayton is recommended to continue to work with these and <br />other agencies to identify spot improvements and long-term upgrades for safe and <br />acceptable operations into the future. <br />River Hills Parkway is also worth mentioning as a unique situation. Based on the <br />provided preliminary access sketches, River Hills Parkway will act as an additional <br />access to the North Dayton site with a future east/west connection being added to <br />the middle of the roadway. This will provide access to future western developments <br />and eventual connect to Lawndale Lane.
