COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE <br /> CITY OF RAMSEY <br /> WSB Experience and WSB has done extensive transportation planning, <br /> References engineering, and design for Minnesota clients. A <br /> sampling of relevant project experience is provided below. <br /> TH 47 Transportation Sub-Area Analysis, Anoka County, MN <br /> WSB was retained by Anoka County and its project partners to <br /> address transportation planning and design needs associated with <br /> TH 47. This roadway is an important north-south arterial in a rapidly <br /> growing area of the County. The project area is from approximately <br /> TH 10 north to CSAH 22. In the southern portion of the project <br /> area, there is increasing congestion which must be addressed. To <br /> the north, there are horizontal/vertical curve deficiencies and <br /> associated safety and operational concerns requiring improvements. <br /> WSB worked with the County to identify alignment alternatives in <br /> the southern portion of the project area which will improve mobility <br /> performance, as well as operational and safety conditions. These <br /> alignments are being evaluated considering transportation functionality, <br /> social, economic, and environmental (SEE) impacts, and cost factors. <br /> In the northern project area, WSB is identifying and evaluating alignment <br /> corrections to the existing corridor which will improve its safety and <br /> mobility characteristics. WSB is doing extensive work with Anoka <br /> County Traffic Model to project traffic levels on roadways in the <br /> project area to refine the facility needs and alignment analyses. <br /> The coordination between land use issues and transportation <br /> engineering has been a key element of the project. In coordination <br /> with Anoka County, WSB has developed a comprehensive public <br /> involvement program which includes a project web site, public meetings, <br /> elected official workshops, project newsletters, and other elements. <br /> Kate Garwood,AICP 1. <br /> Multimodal Transportation Manager <br /> Anoka County Highway Department <br /> 763-862-4230 <br /> Kate.garwood@co.anoka.mn.us <br /> Shakopee Transportation Plan, Shakopee, Minnesota <br /> In 1998, WSB prepared a Transportation Plan for the City of <br /> Shakopee. This covered a full range of transportation issues, including <br /> existing conditions documentation, special transportation issues, a <br /> traffic forecasts, recommended future improvement projects, transit, <br /> recommended functional and jurisdictional classification networks, <br /> access management guidelines, and roadway design standards. <br /> rermi <br /> LANDFORM <br />
