Proiect Scone This project proposes to reconstruct 137th Avenue and Dolomite Street within the Riverside West subdivision. Additionally, the project proposes to mill and overlay Ebony Street, which is located in this same subdivision but constructed 13 years after the original streets. This project is generally located between Riverdale Drive and the Mississippi River, on the previously mentioned cross streets. Existing Pavement Conditions 137th Avenue and Dolomite Street were constructed in 1992. Pavement maintenance has included crack seal / seal coat improvements in 2003 and 2011, as well as skim patching in 2024. The skim patching has held up well. Ebony Street was constructed in 2005. Pavement maintenance has included crack seal / seal coat improvements in 2011 and crack seal improvements in 2021. The streets are 31-foot-wide urban section with surmountable concrete curb and gutter, totaling 0.48 miles in length. Sidewalk exist along Ebony Street, but not 137th Avenue and Dolomite Street. There is a trail crossing on 137th Avenue which leads to Riverdale Park. Anoka County reconstructed this trail south of 137th Avenue in 2025, including updating the pedestrian ramp. The ramp on the north side of 137th Avenue was not reconstructed, and is not up to current ADA standards. Municipal water and sewer, as well as storm sewer exist in the project area. The storm sewer outlets to the Mississippi River from 137th Avenue at the intersections with both Ebony and Dolomite Street. The Ebony Street outlet already has a hydro -dynamic separator structure, similar to what has been retro-fit on recent projects including the Dickenson's Mississippi Estates Reconstruction and the Bowers Drive Overlay Improvements. Because a sanitary sewer lift station is adjacent to the storm sewer at the intersection of Dolomite Street, there is not enough space to retro-fit a structure near the roadway for this second, smaller outlet.
