COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE CITY OF RAMSEY Given the very rapid growth which Shakopee has experienced and anticipates into the foreseeable future, the City directed WSB to prepare a comprehensive update of the 1998 document. This update is currently being finalized. It was developed using TP+Viper, a travel demand software package, to project 2030 traffic volumes. WSB worked with generalized planning data and information from the Shakopee Planning Department to develop demographic inputs for Travel Analysis Zones (TAZs) for the transportation model. The traffic forecast results have been used to help identify future roadway network improvement needs to serve Shakopee plus Louisville and Jackson Townships west of the City. Area studies and evaluations were performed as part of the recent Shakopee work and have been incorporated into the Transportation Plan. Roadway design standards and access management guidelines have been established in the project. WSB and the City have solicited input from Scott County on the planning work, and have carefully incorporated County issues and comments into the current document.
