TO: riembers of St Paul City Council ����� FROM: •Concerned Citizens SUBJECP; Construction of Lexin�ton Parkway We the undersi�ned D0 NOT want a sixteen foot divider or �A feet of roadway on Lexin�ton Parkway.for one or more of the below listed reeaons ' 1 . A 16 ft divider and (48 ft of roadway will turn Lexington Pkw into a Speedway instead of intended Park�rsy, 2. There is not enough room in proposed construction area to insert a 16 ft,dead space down the middle, (a) This will bring Fast moving traffic to close to sidaalks for SAFTEY of citizens walking and 3ogging, We who live in area have seen to many cars jump curb and land in front yard (b} Homes on Lexington Parkway would be to close to radway for amount of traffic. speed, and noise this type of construction aould permit. 3. A divider down the middle of Lexington that would block every other S�reet as proposed WILL EFFECTIVLY DELAY THE SERVICE OF FIRE TRUCKS, PAPAMEDICS, and POLICE to sreas on either side of Lexington for two or three blocks. 4. COST: (a) ORIGINAL: Over.250,000 for landscaping wl�ich has I�0 fuctional purpose at sll, snd the salt will kill after it is planted, The Federal, Stete. County or City does not have money for these luxeries. (b) UPKEEP: If the city has money to spend on wages, we recom�end the hiring of POLICEMEN.

EXISTING CONDITIONS: Lexington Parkway has a 160' right-of-way. However, the existing walks are not on the property lines so the width from back of walk to back of walk is 104' from University to Pierce Butler and varies from 93' to 71' between Pierce Butler and Jessamine. The existing roadway was constructed in 1916 to its present 40' width. The pavement consists of a concrete base with bituminous overlay and concrete curbs. The block from University to Sherburne was widened with a bituminous pavement in 1978 to fit the widening South of University. Lexington Parkway, within the project limits, currently carries a maximum of 16,300 vehicles per day. There are existing storm sewers in place over the entire length of this project. The existing pavement is in poor condition and requires a high degree of maintenance. Overall, Lexington Parkway, within the project limits, is in the poorest condition of any similar street in the City. The deck surface on the bridge over Pierce Butler is spalling quite badly necessitating continual repairs. The deck on the bridge over the Burlington Northern Railway has a brick wearing surface which is quite broken up and extremely slippery when wet or frosty; and leakage through the deck is resulting in deterioration of the concrete and damage to the steel and foundations. The roadway on the latter bridge is only 40' wide. SPECIAL CONSIDERATZONS: Lexington Parkway, as its name implies, is part of the City parkway system. As a parkway, it merits special consideration for aesthetic improvements that would not be proposed for other roadways. The Parks and Recreation Division of the Community Services Department supports this project as a step towards making Lexington a parkway in appearance as well as in name. The decks of the bridges over the Burlington Northern tracks and over Pierce Butler Route are proposed to be reconstructed at the same time. � ?�835� - z - Lexington Parkway in this area is a District Council boundary for Councils 6, 7, 10 and 11. Because of anticipated neighborhood interest, it was decided to involve the neighborhood organizations before any proposals were even preliminarily drawn up. The method of doing this involved securing from each of the four District Councils the names of two individuals to serve on a committee, which would attempt to assemble a proposal for Lexington Parkway that would have a fair chance of being approved by the majority of the District Councils. The major points recommended by the committee were the inclusion of heavy land- scaping throughout the project, a landscaped median and, wherever possible, leaving the sidewalk in its present locations. City staff then brought the proposals to the District Councils for input. Staff presented the proposals and answered questions at the neighborhood District meetings and received from all four District Councils votes of support for the overall concept, although each District approved a different variation. The results of the four District votes on the proposals are as follows: DISTRICT MEDIAN WIDTH BICYCLE ACCOMMODATION 6 20 feet Yes 7 16 feet No 10 No width preference Yes stated 11 16 feet wide Yes By supporting bicycle accommodations in the roadway, the Districts are in effect supporting two 27-foot wide roadways, one on either side of the median. Without the accommodation for bicycles the two roadways would be 24 feet wide each. On August 20, 1981, the City Council received a petition against the project for reasons of "traffic and noise pollution." The majority of the signers were Lexington residents. As a result of the petition another neighborhood meeting was held December 14, 1981, at the Lexington library with special invitations delivered to every address along Lexington Parkway in the project area. Residents at the meeting which was attended by 29 people, were uniformly unsupportive of the parkway concept and showed interest in some alternative solutions with an undivided roadway. There was support for a 55-foot wide undivided roadway which would allow left turn lanes. The staff recommendations for a 16-foot wide landscaped median and two 24-foot wide roadways is being submitted as an attempted compromise which we feel addresses the interests of the District Councils, City staff and the abutting residents. - 3 - This project was rated by the CIB Committee number "one" of all the Municipal State Aid eligible projects proposed for the 1982-83 budget process. PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS: The proposal encompasses total reconstruction of the area including new pavement, medians, extensive landscaping, concrete curbs and gutters, drainage facilities, lighting, traffic siqnals, and minimal sidewalk reconstruction and relocation. The proposal is for two 24-foot wide roadways separated by a 16-foot wide landscaped median. Left turn lanes will be constructed. The median will be constructed with- out interruption through every other minor intersection. Landscaping in the project area is proposed at approximately 40 plantings per block. These plantings shall be combinations of coniferous trees, deciduous trees, and shrubs. In areas where the "green lantern" street lights now exist, they will be refurbished. These fixtures will be supplemented with extra conventional ornamental lighting at the intersections in the same manner as presently occurs. In areas where there are not existing green lanterns, conventional ornamental lighting will be constructed. The decks of the bridges over Pierce Butler Route and over the Burlington Northern Railroad tracks will be rehabilitated during this project. Currently, these bridge deck widths are 44 and 40 feet wide respectively. One of the bridge decks will be resurfaced and the other totally reconstructed so that both bridges and the roadway between the bridges will be 44 feet wide after rehabilitation. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Do nothing. For maintenance reasons this alternative could not be tolerated for any long period of time, and if the deterioration of the bridges is allowed to continue, would result in a reduction of permissible loads until such time that closure of the bridges would be necessary. 2. A Scaled-Down Proposal. It would be possible to prepare other proposals that would address traffic safety and volume concerns only ssch as a four or five lane undivided roadway, but these would introduce pedestrian crossing difficulties by increasing the width. POSITIVE BENEFITS: The proposal would eliminate the necessity of repeated patching of the pavement especially near the gutters. It would also replace the unconfortably narrow 10-foot wide lanes with 12-foot wide lanes. It is expected that extensive landscaping will do a great deal toward making the project area a visually appealing roadway and will be a significant step towards transforming Lexington into a parkway. Rehabilitation of the bridges will stop the deterioration now progressing and allow continued use by all legal loads. Increasing the roadway width, on the bridge over the railroad, will provide a roadway of constant width over both bridges. � �'���5� - 4 - TII� SCHEDULE: The project is scheduled for construction in 1982. It is expected that if work is begun as early in the Spring as possible, the project will be completed in the 1982 construction season. COST ESTIMATE: The total cost of this project is estimated at $2.9 million. Financing for the project is scheduled as follows: 1982 MSA $2,400,000 PIA Funds 152,000 1982 CIB 348,000 TOTAL $2,900,000 SOURCE OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: For additional information, contact Mike Eggum at 292-7153. SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS: This project was initiated by City staff with the intent of eliminating one of the poorest roadways in the City and at the same time developing parkway characteristics in the project area. The project has gone through the preliminary design stages with continuous neighborhood input. The proposal described herein addresses to varying degrees the concerns of many parties who have different and often conflicting concerns in the matter. Public Works staff, Parks and Recreation staff, four District Councils and the residents on Lexington Parkway, have all had some impact on the project. The Public Works Department recommends approval of the project as a necessary street reconstruction project which also addresses the concerns for aesthetics on street that is part of the City's parkway system. The Department feels that two 24-foot wide roadways separated by a 16-foot wide landscaped median is a compromise proposal that best meets the interests of all parties involved.
