<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />SECTION II: CONFORMITY WITH METROPOL TIAN SYSTEM PLANS <br /> <br />A. Transportation <br /> <br />1. Does this plan revision or amendment potentially increase existing trip generation (use Institute of <br />Transportation Engineers trip-generation manual)? <br />o No..ifno, Skip to #5. <br />IZI Yes.. if yes, <br />. What is the estimated average daily traffic increase? NA <br />. What is the estimated peak hour traffic increase? NA <br /> <br />Because it is a complete plan revision the increase in avera2e dailv traffic is not specifically calculated on a whole <br />ci:ty basis. However. it is evident that land use planning in the western portions of the City alon~ Highwav to and in <br />the areas alon~ Hil'!hwav 47 will create the greatest increase in traffic volumes. For a discussion on this element <br />please see the Transportation Ch~er pa~s VI-8 throu~h VI-tO particularlv Table VI-3. <br /> <br />2. Does the existing local and regional road network (including metropolitan interchanges) have the capacity to <br />accommodate planned land use(s)? <br /> <br />Dyes <br />[gI No.. if no~ briefly describe the improve ents to local or regional roads or <br />interchanges that will be required to accommodate the planned, se(s): Trunk Highways 47 and 10 both <br />have ca aci deficiencies alo a ood ortion if not all 0 ther len ths. This ca acit deficienc is cause not <br />only by growth in Ramsey but also to flI'owth in outlying areas. For discussion on this issue see VI-IO and VI- <br />II.

Does this plan amendment impact transit service or facilities - either positively or negatively? <br /> <br />ONo <br />t8l Yes.. briefly describe Although the plan indicates the City's preference to remain <br />outside of the Metro Transit taxing district. the plan encourages transit friendly design and supports use of <br />alternative travel modes. The Dlan also is supportive of Commuter Rail olannine: in conjunction with the <br />Northstar Corridor. see pages VI-16 through VI-I8. <br /> <br />4. Can the potential traffic impacts of the land use be mitigated by implementing Traffic Demand Management <br />(TOM) strategies or through land use and urban design measures that encourage alternatives to single <br />occupancy vehicles (SOV)? While the Dlan recommends TOM strategies including land use planning and <br />access management. these efforts alone will not mitigate traffic impacts from outlyina areas. <br /> <br />2 <br /> <br />6~:~1 66.
