City of Ramsey Comprehensive Plan Amendment Transportation Element EastIW est Roads . Reconstruct CR 63 where it intersects CSAH 5 to make CR 63 a continuous road. . Cooperate with the City of Elk River to develop 173rd Avenue as an east/west link between the two cities. There are currently two east/west connections between Elk River and Ramsey: 18Ist Avenue and 165th Avenue. The recommended 173rd linkage is shown on Figure 3-6 and includes: Extension ofCR 63 (173rd Avenue) to the west, from CR 83 to the Extension of 173rd Street in Elk River to Filmore Street . Construct an east/west road between CSAH 5 and CR 116. The road's alignment should be south of Sunfish Lake and should intersect both CR 57 and CR 116. This road, with its connections to the west ofCSAH 5, will reduce turning movements at the CSAH 5ffH 47 and CR 116ffH 47 intersections and reduce the daily traffic volume on CR 116, west of TH47. . Extend CR 116 to the west from CR 56, to TH lOwest of Armstrong. Also, continue a local collector street from the general Puma location to connect with 153rd Ave NW. Extended CR 116 should swing to the north after passing the Puma Street alignment, to intersect 153rd Avenue. This strategy will provide a continuous east/west street in the southwestern part of the City. . Cooperate with the City of Anoka to improve and extend CR 116 from CR 57 to Dysprosium Street. Mississippi River Crossing Several jurisdictions and agencies, including the Cities of Ramsey and Dayton, Anoka and Hennepin Counties, Mn/DOT, and the Metropolitan Council, recognize that the future need for an additional Mississippi River crossing between Ramsey and Dayton is an important issue. At this point the time frame for the future bridge is suspected to be 20 years or more, based on regional traffic forecasts. Page 3-30
