Finn portion ofjthe project and has been approved through the Capital Improvement �ud et Process. _ • EXI T1N DI fON : Marshall Aven�ue i a Trunk Highway which is under the jurisdiction of the � - Minnesota De�part ent of Transportation. The current speed limit is 35 MPH. Marsha�ll is Truck Route, but the current use by trucks is limited due to the po��ting of the Marshall-Lake Bridge to trucks. The current . roadway is 521 wi e, with 4 thru lanes during rush hour (See Attachment No. 2). A rush ho r parking ban currently is in effect on the north side of the roadway. ! A s parate left turn lane is provided at the Cretin intersection. h�us hour parking is banned or� the south side of the roadway near Cretin to�lacc mmodate the ieft turn lane. The current average daily traffic on Mar hall is 12,075 between Otis and Cretin, 11,075 between Cleveland an� Fa rview and 10,500 between Fairview and Snelling. The existing paveqnen and curbs are in poor condition. The Marshal! Lak Bridge is currently being reconstructed by the Minnesota D pa ment of Transportation.

The 4' of widening would be on the nortf� sid of roadway along Town and Country Golf Course. An additional vVide i (12 ' proposed west of Cretin and east of Otis to provide for a I�ft t n lane. Between Creti� an Finn, the proposed roadway consists of two 12' wide thru lanes, tw� 10' wide parking lanes and a 12' wide center left tum lane for a total width of 6 feet. An additional 2' of widening and parkjng ban will be implem�ent on the north side ofi Marshall from Cretin to 130' east for a bus stop�righ turn lane. Parking will be banned on the south side of - MarshaH from Fin to 8G' west for a bus stop/righ;turn lane. The proposed width and am�unt of widening varies between Otis and Finn as shown on Attachment N�. 2. The existing cpm ined sewer will be repaired and will eventuafly be used for sanitary sewa e only after the sewer separation work is campleted in the area. A s�orm sewer will be constructed from Otis to Finn. Redesigred I�nte n light�ng wi!I be installed, with bent straw lig�±ir.g at the Otis and �reti intersections. Trees will be planted in the b�ulevards. � Finn to Fry (�99 ) Marshall between Fnn and Fry will be reconstructed as part of a Sewer _ Separation pr{oje in the area, which is currently scheduled for 1993.

" NEIGHBORH INV VEMEM: The Marshall'Av nue Task Force was formed by The Merriam Park Gommunity ��U cil in April of 1989 to work v�ith the Department of Public Works an MnDOT t� determi�e a design for �larshall �,venue befinreen Otis an Fry. The Task Force, Public Wo►ics and Mn00T are in agreement on th majority of the issues that have been discussed in relation to the ro dway design. The Task Force disagrees with''Public _ Works and 11�nD Ts proposed typical section for Marshall between Otis to Cretin. The Task Foirce as also recommended that: - The truck jrou e designation be removed from Marshall Avenue. - The truck rou e designation be removed from Fairview between Universit�Jr an Marshall. - The trunk hig way designation be removed from Marshall Avenue. - The speed li it be reduced from 35 MPH to 30 MPH. 3 - � , , ga- >83 9 �These issues a e b yond the scope of this project and should be.handled separately in th fu re. � The Task Forc� rec mmendations have been approved by the Merriam Park Community Council. A copy of the Task Force recommendations are attached (Attachm nt No. 3). LTERNATIVE : arshali Aven�ue ask Forc Alternate: B een Otis and retin, the arshall Avenue Task Force is proposing a typi I section incl ding a 2' eaction area along the north curb line, two 11' wi e westbdun lanes, 11' wide center left turn lane, one 11' east bound rough jlan and 10' wide parking lane on the south side for a total width of '. Unde the ask Force proposal, eastbound Marshail wouid be tapered fro tv�o I nes o one lane between Mississippi River Bivd and Otis. The Task Forc 's ro osed typical section for Marsha(! between Otis and Cretin wifl not k�e ed by MnDOT. It would require a variance to . Municipal State Ai tandards if funded entirely by the City using MSA . Funds. The capa of the Cretin-Marshall intersection would b.e � • substantially redu ed, ausing increased congestion, pollution and could result in vehicfes u ing ississippi River Boulevard, Otis and residential streets in tt�e rl g borho d to avoid the con�estion at the Cretir� - Marshall inters i n.

Last spring the Desnoyer Park Improvement Association was asked for input regarding reconstruction plans for Marshall Avenue from Otis to Cretin. In order to obtain the widest possible opinion from the community a survey (attached) was prepared and distributed in the neighborhood. Some were distributed to apartments and houses on the south side of Marshall Avenue along Otis. The results of this survey (reported in a letter to Paula Maccabee April 25, 1990) showed that the ma�oxity of residents who responded want two lanes of traffic in each direction with turn lanes at Otis and Cretin Avenues. These are residents who will be greatly affected by traffic congestion, pollution, and other negative affects of inadequate space for the smooth flow of traffic. The Marshall-Lake Street Bridge is a major connection between St. Paul and Minnespolis. Traffic plans should encourage a free exchange of residents on both sides who use the bridge to work, shop or socialize on the opposite banks of the river. In conclusion, the majority of the Desnoyer Park neighborhood residents surveyed favor a two-lane corridor in both east-west directions between Cretin and Otis. In addition, I did not vote on the Merriam Park Task Force for any alternative. � st. paui, minnesota 55104 f i c�D.,f��-1 , � a_16 Mo ific tions Adopted by the Public Works Committee 10/3/90 to i Summary of Engineering Recommendations • Marshall Avenue - Otis to Fry Council File #90-1839 PROPO ED I P VEMENT Page 2 Paragraph 1 t rea : Otis to Finn ( 991 It is proposed o c mpletely remove the existing pavement and c�nstruct a new bitu�ninous su ace roadway.

Th section between Otis and Finn is scheduled for 1991 construction, an the section from Finn to Fry is scheduled for 1993 construction. (S e Attachment No. 1 ). This project was initiated by the Department of Public Works. The Otis to Finn portion of t e project and has been approved through the Capital Improvement B dget Process. . 1 I N • Marshall Avenu is a Trunk Highway which is under the jurisdiction of the Minnesota Qep rtment of Transportation. The current speed limit is 35 MPH. Marshall s a Truck Route, but the current use by trucks is limited due to the p�sti g of the Marshall-Lake Bridge to trucks. The current roadway is �2' ide, with 4 thru lanes during rush hour (See Attachment No. 2). A ru�h our parking ban currently is in effect on the north side of the roadwaY�. separate left turn lane is provided at the Cretin intersection.l R h hour parking is banned on the south side af the roadway near Cretin �o a ommodate the left turn lane. The current average daily traffic on Ma�rsh II is 12,075 between Otis and Crefin, 11,075 between Cleveland and airview and 10,500 between Fairview and Snelling. The existing pavem nt and curbs are in poor condition. The Marsha�l- ke Bridge is currently being reconstructed by the Minnesota Dep rtment of Transportation. The new bridge will carry four lanes of tra ic. arshall between Mississippi River Blvd. and Otis is also being recon tru ed as part of the bridge.project. The bridge and associated oad work is currently scheduled to be completed in Fall of 1992. Marshall venue between Fry and Snelling is being reconstructed in 1990 by MnDO as part of the improvements to the Marshall-Snelling intersection. .. . �lQ-'��3� �The majority'of e area�is presently served by an combined sewer ' system, a portio of which is deteriorated and in need of repair. The existing str et lighting is on NSP wood poles between Otis and Fairview. L�nte n style lighting is present on Marshall between Fainriew and Snelling. V Otis to Finn (1991) It is proposed to completely remove the existing pavement and construct a new bituminbus surfaced roadway. Between Otis and Cretin, the proposed roadway co�nsis s of four 11' wide thru lanes, a 2' wide reactiom area along the northern mo t travel lane, and a 10' wide parking lane on the south side of the road ay for a total width of 56 feet. The 4' of wide�ing would be on the north ide of the roadway along Town and Country Golf Course. An additional wi ening (12') is proposed west of Cretin and east of Otis to provide for a le turn lane. Between Cretin nd Finn, the proposed roadway consists of two 12' wide thru lanes, two 0' wide parking lanes and a 12' wide center left turn lane for a total width f 56 feet. An additional 2' of widening and park�ng ban will be implQme ted on the north side of Marshall from Cretin to 130' east for a bus stpp/ri ht tum lane. Parking will be banned on the south side of Marshall from F nn to 80' west for a bus stopJright turn lane. The proposed width and amount of widening varies between Otis and Finn a� shown on Attachment No. 2. The existing co bined sewer will be repaired and will eventually be used for sanitary se ge only after the sewer separation work is campleted in the area. A sto m sewer will be constructed from Otis to Finn. Redesigned lan ern lighting will be installed, with bent straw liqhting at the Otis and Cr tin intersecctions. Trees will be planted in the boulevards. Finn to Fryi(19 3) Marshall be�lwe n Fnn and Fry will be reconstructed as part o# a Sewer Separation proj ct in the area, which is current{y scheduled for 1993. It is proposedi to mpletely remove the existirx� pavement and construct a new bitumi ous surfaced roadway. Between Finn and Fry, the proposed roadway co sis s of two 12' wide thru lanes, iwo 10' wide parking lanes and a 12'w de enter left tum lane for a total width of 56 feet. The typical sect n roposed is shown on Attachment No. 2. Parking will be banned an an dditional widening of 2' will be implemented 2�t the following lo ti ns to allow for a right turn lane/bus stop: � � 2 .� . , .. � . - . ��,--,��9 � North s' e Marshail - Cleveland to 130' east � Sou�h s e Marshali - Cleveland to 130'west North si e Marshaii - Fairview to 80' east South s e Marshail - Fairview to 130' west At all other il�ter ections, parking will be banned 80' from the intersection in a eas of bus stops, and 20' from the intersection in areas of no bus stops. A separate Fina Order will be processed in fall of 1992 for the storm sewer whict� wil be constructed between Finn and Prior. A separate Final Order will al�o e initiated in 1992 for redesigned larrtern lighti�►g between Firtn a d Fry, with bent straw lighting at the Prior, Cl�veland and Fairview int�rse ions. Left turn arrows will be provided for Marshall Avenue traffic a the Prior, Cleveland and Fairview intersections. It is also propos�d t ban parking on Fairview befinreen Iglehart and Dayton, install a left turn lane and provide a green arrow signaf for left�'turning Fairview Avenu traffic. Trees will be planted in the boulevarcls. The widenirtg n ar Cretin will necessitate transplanting of fouc 4" to 6" diameter a�h tr es to other areas of the City. The affected tr�es are located on �he outh side of Marshall just west of Cretin. The trees will be replaced wit smaller trees as part of the project. No other effects on trees are antici ated. Bumpouts in parking lane areas can be provided if necessary ta pr serve any trees that may be affected by the widening. N I V M The Marshall A enue Task Force was formed by The Merriam Park Community Co ncil in April of 1989 to work with the Department of Public Worl�s a d MnDOT to determine a design for Marshall�Avenue befin+een �is a d Fry. The Task Force, Public Works and MinDOT are in r ment bn t e ma'ori of the issues that have been discussed in ag ee � ty relation to the r adway design. The Task Force disagrees with Public Works and Mn OTs proposed typical sectio� for Marshall between Otis to Cretin. The Task F'jorc has also recommended that: - The truc� ro te designation be removed from Marshall Avenue. - The truc ro te designation be removed from Fairview between Universiity a d Marshall. - The trunk hi hway designation be removed from Marshall Avenue. - The speed li it be reduced from 35 MPH to 30 MPH. 3 � �These�issues ar beyond the scope of this project and shouid be.handled ��`�� separatety in th future. � The Task Fqrce recommendations have been approved by the Merriam Park Community �ou cil. A copy of the Task Force recommendations are attached (Attac ment No. 3). V Marshail Aven e Task Force Aiternate: Between Otis a d Cretin, the Marshall Avenue Task Force is proposing a typical section i cluding a 2' reaction area along the north curb line, two 11' wide westbo nd lanes, a 11' wide center left turn lane, one 11' east bound through I ne and a 10' wide parking lane on the south side for a total width of 56'. Un er the Task Force proposal, eastbound Marshal(would be tapered from tw lanes to one lane be#ween Mississippi River Blvd and Otis. The Task Fqrce' proposed typical section for Marshall between Otis and Cretin will n�t b funded by MnDOT. It would require a varianice to Municipal S�ate id Standards if funded entirely by the City using MSA Funds. The ca city of the Cretin-Marshall intersection would b,e substantially� re ced, causing increased congestion, pollution and could result in veh�cle using Mississippi River Boulevard, Otis anct�esidential streets in the ne ghborhood to avoid the congestion at the Cre�in- Marshall inters ion. Do Nothing: To do nothing w uld be inconsistent with the city's commitment to improve exi$tin streets and improve water quality and reduce pollution. Improving the r dways in conjunction with the sewer construction will save time, rr�on y and inconvenience later. Improving Marshall in conjunction �nrith the Marshall-Lake bridge project will reduce the inconvenienice t the neighborhood and improve the esthetics of this gateway intq St. Paul. The sewer aons ruction will complete the sewer separation work along this segmen�t of arshall. Left turn lan�s �tis, Cretin, Cleveland, Prior and Fairview vuill improve traffic flow afnd afety. The installa�ion f lights, trees and the general improvement of the public right-of-waylin c njunction with the sewer construction will enhance and , 4 i � �add quality tb�th r�eighborhood. , � � . �-��--`�3 9 Coordination of e project with the Marshait-Lake Bridge project will minimize the dis ption of tratfic on Marshall. Normal prot�lem associated with construction such as noise, dUSt and � general disrupti n witt be preserrt. However, by constrvcting all the improvemen�s a this time, future adverse effects would be eliminated. T The Otis to Finn segment is scheduled for 1991 construction. The Finn to Fry segment is heduled for 1993 construction. One lane of traffic in each direction w ll be maintained during the construction of the Otis to Finn segment.
