187 <br />Central Anoka County Regional Trail - Pending Alternative Alignment <br />Anoka County Parks & Recreation has submitted to Metropolitan Council, a Master Plan <br />Amendment for the realignment of the Central Anoka County Regional Trail. This amendment is <br />located between Ramsey Boulevard and Center Street and connects to the Northstar Commuter Rail <br />station and future grade separated pedestrian crossing of Highway 10, for a safe, direct, and multi - <br />modal connection to the Mississippi River Regional Trail, and Mississippi West Regional Park. <br />The realignment in Ramsey is needed as, presently the City of Ramsey has limited access to the <br />Mississippi River and Mississippi West Regional Park because Highway 10 is a significant barrier <br />for bicycle and pedestrian access. The amendment will change the alignment of the Central Anoka <br />County Regional Trail within the City of Ramsey to better connect with local parks, trails, <br />restaurants, businesses and transit, while still providing a safe connection to the river and <br />Mississippi West Regional Park. <br />Figure 52: Potential Anoka County Regional Trail Alignments <br />Proposed City of Ramsey Parks <br />Legend <br />PROPOSED REALIGNMENT OF CENTRAL <br />ANOKACOUNTY REGIONALTRAL, TRAL <br />ALREADY EXISTING <br />PROPOSED REALIGNMENT OF CENTRAL <br />ANOIKACOUNTY f€Q1GJALTRAL <br />— EXISTING CENTRAL ANOKA COUNTY REGIONAL <br />TRAIL <br />DUSTING REGIONAL TRAJLDESIGNATION TO <br />RE REMOVED <br />PLANNED REGIONAL TRAIL DESIGNATION TO <br />DE REMOVED <br />CURRENT MISSISSIPPI RIVER TRAIL <br />ALIGNMENT <br />MISSISSIPPI RIVER REGIONAL TRAIL, 2018 <br />CONSTRUCTOR <br />i=i= RAILROAD <br />— ROADWAY <br />TRANSIT STATION <br />CITY PARK <br />CITY TRAIL <br />- REGIONAL PARK, RESERVE <br />Mississippi River <br />New Proposed Trail Route <br />Mississippi West <br />Regional Park <br />Existing regional trail <br />designation proposed <br />to be removed from <br />Master Plan_ <br />city of RAMSEY <br />Comprehensive Plan 2040 <br />
