CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br />Topic Report: Anoka TH 47/Pleasant St. <br />Intersection <br />By: Brian E. Olson, Assistant Director of <br />Public Works / Principal City Engineer <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />On August 23, 2005, the City Council voiced concern at their work session about the <br />configuration of the TH 47/Pleasant Street intersection. The consensus at the time was to <br />wait until improvement of that intersection was complete and operational for a few weeks <br />to determine if the changes once complete were better than they were prior to the <br />improvement. <br /> <br />Chris Roy, MnDot Area Engineer will be available at the meeting to show us crash <br />statistics at all of the intersections along TH 47 from Highway 10 to our north boundary. <br />He will also have a video to show us on the operation of the intersection. On 8/23/05, the <br />City Council was concerned about the reasons that the Southbound to Eastbound left tum <br />lane and had questions about the volumes that led to the decision to eliminate the south <br />bound through lane. Chris will have that information as well as a draft form of a policy to <br />quantify the "warrants" necessary for left turning vehicles. <br /> <br />Action Statement: <br /> <br />Based upon discussion. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br /> <br />City Administrator <br /> <br />CCWS: 02/07/06 <br /> <br /> <br />
