FY2023 LPP Funding Request City of Ramsey — Riverdale Drive Extension the City is requesting approximately 42% of the eligible roadway and storm sewer construction costs, which also equates to less than 20% of the total project costs. Improvement Type Requested Eligible Cost City Cost Roadway, Trail, Storm Sewer and TH 10 $ 710,000 $ 983,000 Watermain $ 0 $ 563,000 Sanitary Sewer $ 0 $ 493,000 Right -of -Way $ 0 $ 150,000 Design and Construction Engineering (18% Est) $ 0 $ 495,000 Other Local Project Delivery Costs $ 0 $ 256,000 TOTALS $ 710,000 $2,940,000 BENEFITS TO THE TRUNK HIGHWAY AND LOCAL ROADWAY SYSTEM The project is intended to improve access, mobility and safety along the TH 10 corridor. This improvement was detailed in the Highway 10 Access Planning Study, and will provide benefit to the TH 10 corridor by: • Removing two accesses to TH 10, • Removing a median cross -over from TH 10, • Extending the eastbound TH 10 right turn lane near Bowers Drive, • Providing access to a new area of development and allowing the new traffic to access TH 10 via the Armstrong Boulevard interchange, • Allowing better access for emergency vehicles to the area. TRAFFIC CONTROL DURING CONSTRUCTION The work along TH 10 will include the removal of two private accesses, removal of a median cross -over and associated left turn lanes, and extension of a right turn lane near Bowers Drive. The work is anticipated to be primarily completed using shoulder closures. No lane closures are anticipated. The frontage road will be constructed along a new alignment, minimizing the need for traffic control on the local roadway system. SCHEDULE AND STRATEGY The City has received information from developers indicating there will be a need for the extension of Riverdale Drive in the immediate future. The City will be able to leverage local assessments, State Aid funding, and City trunk utility funding for the project. Those sources, along with Local Partnership Program funding, will allow for a complete financing package to be developed. The project could potentially be designed in 2021, bid in early 2022, and constructed in 2022. ATTACHMENTS AND OTHER INFORMATION Concept Sketch - The attached Concept Sketch was originally included in the Highway 10 Access Planning Study. The sketch has been shared with developers and the alignment has been refined over the past several years. The sketch also depicts the access closures, the median cross -over closure and the developing area adjacent to the Riverdale Drive Extension. Existing Conditions - The existing conditions can be seen on the attached figure. Cost Estimate - A construction cost estimate is attached which aligns with the construction cost summary presented previously in this letter.
