Existing Conditions This project proposes to reconstruct Tungsten Street between Riverdale Drive and Rivlyn Avenue, as well as Rivlyn Avenue between the western cul-de-sac and the eastern edge of plat. The streets are 31-foot wide urban section with concrete curb and gutter. Tungsten Street has commercial uses on both sides, while Rivlyn Avenue is residential, with single-family homes. Though only marked by signage rather than pavement markings or off-street trail facilities, the streets are part of the Mississippi River Trail Bikeway. The streets total 0.26 miles in length. Municipal sewer, watermain and storm sewer exist within the project area. The watermain and sanitary sewer were installed in 1990 so they will be 35 years old when the street reconstruction occurs, and 95 years old by the end of the street's 60-year design life. During the Ramsey Gateway Highway 10 Improvements, it was found that the watermain gate valves under Riverdale Drive and Tungsten Street were built with mild steel bolts rather than stainless steel as is used today.
