He explained that when Amber Ridge was <br />originally platted, a residential street was planned for Argon Street and 147th Avenue (the stub street <br />west of Argon not currently connected to T.H.//47). In the course of the T.H. #47. Corridor study, <br />the consultant suggested that type of alignment would have negative aspects to it. He explained that <br />this would involve the issue of having the expense of traffic signals at both 149th Avenue and 147th <br />Avenue and could also encourage travel through residential areas. The two signals would also tend <br />to decrease the traffic flow along T.H.//47, relative to only one signal. <br /> <br />Ramsey City Council and Planning Commission Joint Workshop/September 19, 1996 <br /> Page 3 of 5 <br /> <br /> <br />
