Under this program federal funds are made availabie to eligible communities for traffic operation improvements on a system of special � federal-aid urban streets designated as Primary Type II*. The program emphasizes the use of )ow-cost, sound traffic engineering improvements with the raaximum tutilization of existing streets as the most practical approach to solving � transportation problans on this type of system. Because the City of Saint Paul encompasses over 55 square miles, the TOPICS � report has been divided into various study areas within the city. This report covers the Inventory� Advanced Project. and Identification of TOPICS Study Projects � for Study Area ( I (see FIGURE I), bounded by Rice St. , Larpenteur Ave. , McKnight Rd. , Upper Afton Rd. , Warner Rd. and the east and north side of the downtown area (Study � Area 1). STUDY OBJECTIVE . , The objective of this report is to meet the requirements of the Federal Highway � Administration "Policy and Procedure Memorandum 21-1&' dated January� 1969 as updated May 31 , 1911 � as well as guidelines of the Minnesota Highway Department. � SCOPE OF TOPICS PROGRAM The scope of the study is to fulfili the requiranents of Phases 1 � II and lll � of the TOPICS program: � * Recent Federal legislation has changed the systems designation, eliminating the eligibility of Type II systems. � � ' � � l . Establish a Type 11* Federal Aid Primary System. 2. Conduct a comprehensive street inventory. � 3. Publish a TOPICS Plan and Report. 4. Im lement im rovements. � P P 5. Maintain and evaluate the improvements. � * Recent Federal legislation has changed the systems designation, eliminating � the eligibility of Type II systems. � l 1 � 1 1 � 1 1 � � 1 1 � 1 ! � � �� i 1 � � � 1 � � ' J d' � � t0 i H � a�-_ � � � � I � y c� Y Y r � !

The Chicago- Northwestern Railroad runs diagonally from the downtown area to the north and east; , the Burlington Northern and Soo Line Railroads run from downtown to the north; 1 Phalen Park is situated in the north central area; and the State Capitol grounds _ and Oakiand Cemetery are situated just north of the downtown area. These barriers 1 have resulted in a limited number of routes that have continuity to provide for long trips without going through the downtown area, as well as creating several � multi-legged intersections . With the exception of the freeways and E. Seventh St. � the existing street � system is much the same as the original layout, which was platted before the introduction of the automobile. Consequently, the development of the street system � made no distinction between major and minor streets. This has resulted in many narrow streets being required to fulfill the role of. major traffic arteries. To 1 increase the problan, many of these major arteries were once streetcar routes that � developed into strip cornnercial areas creating additional congestion. STUDY BACKGROUND � During the 1950's it became apparent that a radial highway connection from downtown St. Paul to the northeast was necessary to relieve existing traffic � congestion and to provide capacity for projected volumes from this developing area. The City of St. Paul and the Minnesota Highway Department jointly developed 1 plans for this corridor which resulted in the construction of a limited access facility from Rice St. to I .S.-35E and from the east county line to I .S.#694. I I r � � 5 � Subsequently� the alignment for the connecting link was opposed by the � area residents. Several alternate alignments were pre ared which would have � resulted in the removal. of approximately 250 to 4$0 h s. Cost estimates ranged from $22 million to $51 million. The Metropoli an Council has included � in its work program a St. Paul East Study to consider 11 the alternates to this transportation corridor, including public transit � In addition to including the Saint Paul East Stud in its work program, the Metropolitan Council has adopted a Transportation S ction of the Metropolitan � Development Guide. This document has severa) implicati ns regarding Study Area II . They are: � l . Expansion of the express bus service in the St ge I program. � 2. Completion of the Metropolitan Transit Cam�ission Five-Year Capital Program. � 3. Completion of the Interstate System which inclu es I .S.-94 from White Bear Ave. to Mounds Blvd. (presently under cons ruction). � 4. Research planning, development and location eng neering of the fast-link transit system. Study Area II will be served b two proposed fast-link ' corridors: _ � 1 . St. Paul East The line should be somewher between I .S.-94 and the Chicago-Northwestern Railroad Track. � 2. St. Paul North - Thls line would intersect with the St. Paul East line in the T.H. #61 - White 8ear Ave. rea and enter the � downtown area as a comnon link. 5. Construct the first stage transit guideways. ' Ramsey County is just beginning ti comprehensive tran portation study bordering the north and east sides of Study Area II . Liaison will be continued � with the Ramsey County Highway Department as its study pro resses. A TOPICS � Plan and Report also has been prepared for this portion of Ramsey County. r 6 � r , � PART II1 : TOPICS STREET SYSTEM � I� order to comply with the 1969 Federal Highway Act, the Minnesota Highway Oepartment carried out the 1968-1990 Highway Functional Classification Study. As � a result of this study� the streets within Study Area II have been functionally classified (see FIGURE 2) as follows: , PRINCIPAL ARTERIAL: The principal arterial street system serves major centers of activity within metropolitan areas and corridors of highest traffic volume � and longest trips. It serves major intra-urban movements, particularly in � larger metropolitan areas and also provides continuity to the rural arterial system. This classification includes Federal Aid Interstates and other Ifreeways and expressways. MINOR ARTERIAL: The minor arterial street system provldes for traffic of a � more land-access orientatio�. Service should be more of an intra-community nature. The system includes urban connections to rural major collector roads. � COLIECTOR: The collector streets system serves to distribute traffic from arterials to their destination, which may be on a local or collector street. � Conversely, the collector street "collects" traffic from the local streets and , channels it into the arterial systems. The collector systan serves both land-access and local traffic movement within the various neighborhoods and � area. LOCAL: The local streets comprise all the facillties not on one of the higher , systems. It serves primarily to provide direct access to abutting land and access to the higher order systems. (Local streets are not shown on FIGURE 2) . � Street classification benefits the City by determining the function and use � of all streets, the physical requirements of street construction, the need for tcaffic control measures, and establishes the extent of the community-wide � interest in a street as distinguished from the interest of adjacent property owners. � 1 ' � The information gained from this functianal cl ssification study was � incorporated into the determination of a tentative ederal-Aid Type II* System � (see FIGURE 3). The tentative Federal-Aid Type II ystem was submitted to the Minnesota Highway Department Planning and Progr ing Section on January � 24, 1973. '� In addition to the Federal-Aid Type II Sy tem, FIGURE 3 also shows the Federal-Aid Urban, the Federal-Aid Primary Type and the Federal-Aid , Secondary routes. The tentative mileage for each Fe eral-Aid S,ystem within _ Study Area II is: � Federal Aid Urban 11 . miles � Federal Aid Primary Type I 10. miles Federal Aid Primary Type II* (TOPICS) 39• miles � Federal Aid Secondary 2.5 miles Unclassified 12.4 miles � * Recent Federal legislatio� has changed the systems d signation, � eliminating the eligibility of Type II Systems.

SI P�UI OEPT OF WBUC WORKS •U�IL�U OF 1Rwfi1C ' 1 PART IV: CHARACTERISTICS OF THE TOPICS SYSTEM The Clty of Saint Paul began work on the TOPICS Area II Street Inventory on � June 7, 1971 after an agreement with the State had been processed. The first work was the collection of data on physical characteristics: signal 1 timing, bus stop locations, number of buses and commercial vehicles� peak hour and 24 hour traffic volumes, turning movements and travel speeds. iAn extension of time was granted to January 31 , 1974 in order to accomplish � this work with our existing englneering personnal and also continue the day-to-day traffic engineering function of the city. ' The street inventory provided information necessary to determine travel patterns within the study area, to identify capacity and safety problem locations, and to � develop improvement plans. The following sections discuss inventory data: ' TRAFFIC VOLUMES Traffic volumes are probably the most important data collected in the TOPICS ' Study. These volumes were used to trace existing travel movements and indicate 1 capacity deficiencies. The volumes shown in FIGURE 4 are for an average 24-hour period,while the , volumes shown in FIGURES 5 and 6 are volumes by direction of travel for the morning rush hour (7:15 to 8:15 A.M.) and for the evening rush hour (4: 15 to 5:15 P.M.) , � respectively. TRUCK ROUTES � All trucks of 15,000 lbs. rated gross weight or under may travel on any street in the city with the exception of City Parks and restricted parkways as shown on , FIGURE 7. The gross weight is the rated weight of the vehicle or canbination of � vehicles whether or not it is loaded� and the weight must be stenciled on each side of the cab. � All trucks over 15,000 lbs. rated gross weight must use the designated truck routes. ' � 13 r MASS TRANSIT � The locations of all local bus routes are shown in FIGURE 8. The major bus service operation in Study Area II is owned and operated by the Metropolitan � Transit Commission. Two smaller privately owned bus companies serve certain � areas within the study area. TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICES ' Traffic control devices are signals, signs, pavanent markings or channelizing islands which regulate traffic flow. The locations of the traffic signals, stop � signs, and yield signs in Study Area II are shown on FIGURE 9• ON-STREET PARKiN6 REGULATIONS ' On-street parking regutations are important items in the performance , evaluation of a street. On-street parking decreases the capacity and increases the accident potential of the street. FIGURE 10 shows the parking restrictions � in Study Area Ii . ACCIDENTS � �� Safety is one of the main objectives of the TOPICS program. FIGURE 11 identifies the accident problem locations. � The accident data are based on accidents reported to the Police Department for 1y71 and 1972. TABIE I shows the 20 highest accident locations based on a � combined ranking of accident rates and total number of accidents. � TRAVEL SPEEDS Travel speeds are useful to identify locations which experience traffic � delays a�d congestion. As part of the TOPICS inventory, travel time runs were made for the A.M. peak hour, FIGURE 12, the P.M. peak hour, FIGURE 13, and the ' off peak period, FIGURE 14. This information was compiled to identify links with speed deficiencies and to aid in the evaluatian of levels of service. � CAPACITY Capacity is defined as the maximum number of vehicles which has a reasonable � expectation of passing over a given section of roadway during a given time period ' 14 � ' iunder prevailing roadway and traffic conditions. In urban areas roadway capacity is most critical at intersections where smooth flow is interrupted because of the Iuse of intersection controls� such as signals or stop signs. Consequently, any � meaningful determination of roadway capacity depends on the approach capacity of the more critical intersections. 1 Intersection capacities for level of service were computed based on the P.M. rush hour condition for cycle length, split, parking condition, etc. The Capacity ' Analysis Procedure for Siqnalized Intersections as published by the Traffic Institute of Northwestern University was used in these calculations. � From the viewpoint of the driver, low volumes provide higher levels of service � than greater volumes on the same roadway. Thus, the level of service for any particular roadway varies inversely as a function of the volume to capacity ratio, � FIGURE 15• Additional factors affecting the capacity of an intersection are street width and turning movements. Street widths limit the number of driving lanes ' available and heavy turning movements interrupt the traffic f1ow. See FIGURE 16 for Right-of-Way and Street Widths and F16URE 17 for P.M. Rush Hour Turning ' Movements. , ' L 1 I ! 1 � 15 � �o,�o �,»s �-si •-�i��,�oo � t.• r-�i �!�o � z:ss �� r'�-si �-�t �._�� t-s� �i�qo r,.� � " N . z,��o s e�s �o.�i ii-�i ��,aoo � N s-ai 1�2�O �'R2~ J-i� ?-7/ � , 00 �• «o� �vE, y• +.r,� � W�S00 y� ry}.b � �o�eo ��:o /E.� �s� �+-i• �= 4J � i so ��IO• W 1 � < i ; „ ff70NT AVE. �� i,os0 '`�� e0o� � AvE. 1100 2,�ts •o I -�t }-fa -�o �., . •- �.� s�� ,a:s � �oa Cr�so�»•n STILIM�ATER AvE. � �.�� i • .� ��1f��,11!

Consequently, speed-volume relationships for urban arterials have ' been developed. There are, howevor, in addition to these relationships, many variables (including parking, freedom to maneuver, safety, driving comfort and , convenience, etc.) that are invoived in determining the levels of service. Thus, a subjective judgment, incorporating both the basic speed-volume relationships ' . and any additional pertinent information� was made in determining levels of service. � TABLE 2*lists the average overall travel speed and volume/capacity relationships corresponding to spacific levels of service for urban arterial streets. , TABLE 2it TRAFFIC FLOW CONDITIONS ' AVERAGE OVERALL LIKELY SERVICE LEVEL TRAVEL PEAK- VOLUME/ , OF SPEED LOAD HOUR CAPACITY SERVICE DESCRIPTION (MPH) FACTOR FACTOR RATIO � A.

Peak Hour Factor - A measure of consistency of demand. It reflects variations � in peaking characteristics of approach roadways. ' Peak Hour Traffic Volume 4 x peak 15 min. traffic volume ' The results of this analysis are illustrated in F16URE 18. It should be noted that a significant portion of the street system operates at service level D , during the peak hour. The evaluation of the seriousness of this finding is subject to major questions: ' l . Is level of service D a problem and should efforts be made to eliminate level D and E operations? ' 2. The energy crisis is now at a serious stage and will become worse. � What effect will it have on our standard of living, our ability to distribute goods and services and our indivldual mobility? , 3. How effective will efforts be to increase ridership on public transit? These questions have been considered and the following conclusions were made: ' 1 . Level of service C should be the design goal . However, due to the limitations on large scale geometric improvements, level of service C ' may not be obtainable in all areas. 2. The energy problem is a very complex problem involving both short-range ' emergency measures, as well as planned long-range solutions. The effect ' on present and future traffic volumes is impossible to assess at this time. , 3. The Metropolitan Transit Commission is experiencing growth in transit ridership and this trend might be expected to continue. � These conclusions will be input into the subsequent selection of improvement projects, as well as to the priority established for eoch project. , � r 48 ' � ' FEM7EUR •vE ' wH�qi tK rK+'' ' D r ♦ �ni:5. $G�. , � ARLINGTO VE.

The project selected was Maryland Ave. between Abell St. and ' Westminster St. This project was authorized to allow full utilization of existing capacity along � the remainder of Maryland Ave. , which narrows from four lanes to two lanes just east of Jackson St. and then widens to four lanes just west of I .S.-35E. However, with , the high percentage of turns at the in.terstate ramps, the effective roadway was � reduced to one lane in each direction. Public hearing requirements were met by advertising an opportunity for a � combined location and design hear.ing in March 1972. The Negative Environmental Impact Statement was approved by the Federal Highway Administration on March 22, 1972. ' The Local and Design Study Report was approved by the Federal Highway Administration in May of 1g72. ' The construction work for the entire segment, Abell St. to Westminster St. , is being carried out in three contracts. (See page55 for existing and proposed ' plans and a more detailed construction time schedule.) ' 1 . Bids were opened for grading and two new bridges for the portion from Jackson St. to I .S.-35E in August 1972. Construction began in October 1y72 ' with work to be completed December 1973. 2. Bids were opened for widening the bridge of I .S.-35E and grading and paving ' from I .S.-35E west ramps to Westminster St. on June 22, 1y73. The work is to be completed July 26, 1974. ' 3. Bids were opened for paving, lighting� storm sewers and bridge rennovations ' from Abell St. to I .S.-35E on July 18, 1913. This work is to be completed September 21 , 1974. � ' ' S1 ' ' , ' i 1 i 1 1 1 i 1 1 � i i 1 1 1 , 53 ' RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS i Upon completion and review of the inventory analysis portion of the TOPICS report, the recomnended lmprovanents were deterrt�ined. These improvements vary , in scope from a simple intersection to a compiex interchange. The selected improvements are presented in various forms on the fol{owing pages. By using , topographic maps, standard maps, photos, etc. for presentation, our purpose is � to provide a clear and understandabie display of the existing and p�oposed plans. Also shown are intersection traffic volumes and accident summary sheets. The , following items should be noted when reviewing these sheets: 1 . Rush hour counts are taken on weekdays from 7:15 A.M. - 8:15 A.M. and � 4:15 P.M. - 5:15 P.M. unless otherwise noted. 2. A.D.T. (Averagc Daily Traffic) is the total traffic volume in both � directions on the street for an average 24 hour period. The date shown just below the A.D.T. volume is the time when the count was made from ' which the A.D.T, was calculated. ' 3. The rate at the bottom left of the sheet represents the accident rate in number of accidents per million vehicles entering the intersection ' over the number of years shown on the bottom rlght of the sheet.

OVERHEAD SIGNALS � ' � SUMMARY � Accident studies indicate that the overhead signals installed during the 1968 construction season at all signalized intersections along Snelling Ave. from Randolph Ave, to Minnehaha Ave. have resulted in significantly reducing the number of right angle and rear end collisions at the signalized intersections. Considering the re- � duction i� rear end �and the right angle type collisions and the resulting decreased accident costs, the money saved the motoring pubiic in one year was about four times as great as the cost of installing the overhead signals. � INTRODUCTION The Public Works Department had always felt that supplementing the traffic � signal indications located on the corners of the intersections with overhead signal indications would result in reducing certain types of accidents, however, the de- partment had no documentation of this. The objective of this report then, is to � present evidence in the form of a before and after accident study of the following locations where the overhead signals were installed: Snelling Ave. and Randolph Ave. Snelling Ave. and Jefferson Ave. � Snelling Ave. and St. Clair Ave. Snelling Ave. and Grand Ave. Snelling Ave. and Summit Ave. Snelling Ave. and Selby Ave. Snelling Ave. and Marshall Ave. Snelling Ave. and University Ave. Snelliny Ave. and Thomas Ave. Snelling Ave. and Minnehaha Ave. � At the intersections of Snelling Ave. and Selby Ave. , Snelling Ave. and Marshal ) Ave. , and Snelling Ave. and University Ave. overhead indications were installed for � all four directions of approach. At the other seven intersections overhead indi- ---- cations were installed only for the north-south or Snelling Ave. approaches. PROCEDURE � For each of the intersections a two year study period consisting of two one year segments was investigated. The pr�mary purpose of a one year study segment for each � of the installations was to minimize the effects of seasonal variations. Obviously, increasing the signal visibility witl have no effect on the reduction of certain types of accidents, such as those involving parked vehicles, those invol- � ving turning vehicles, as well as those involving head-on or sideswipe type collisions. For the objective of th,is report� it was felt that it was proper to consider only the types of accidents that might possibly have occurred because of marginal signal visi- Lbility. These types are primarily right angle collisions and rear end accidents. � * Abstracted from a report prepared by St. Paul Public Works Traffic Bureau con- � cerning overhead mast arm signal installations. (Dated December 1970) � � . 151 , . � � For example, rear end collisions on approaches or right angle accidents � involviny red light violations from approaches not improved with overhead sig- nals were not considered except when mentioning the total number of collisions since the signal visibility for these approaches was not changed by the project. � In addition, all collisions involving defective automobile equipment, emer- gency vehicles and collisions occurring during the hours of flashing operation were disregarded. The traffic signals at the intersections of Snelling Ave. and � Marshall Ave. and Snelling Ave. and University Ave. operated 24 hours a day on a normal stop and go sequence. At the other eight intersections studied the signals flashed between the hours of 1 ;30 A.M. and 5:30 A.M. DISCUSSION OF RESULTS � Accident records showed that the types of accidents in which signal visi- � bility may have been a contributing factor were reduced over 75% from 162 in one year before the overhead signals were put in operation to 38 in one year after the installation of the signals. (See table on following page) The number of people injured in these types of collisions was reduced also by about 75% from � 108 personal injuries to 27 personal injuries following the installation of the overhead signals. In considering the one year periods before and after the over- heads were installed, the reduction of the types of accidents in which signal � visibility sight distance may have been a contributing factor has resulted in a total motorist benefit of $239,807.00. The total cost of the signal improvements was $62,450.00, therefore, the City of St. Paul in one year had recovered its initial investment plus $177,357.00 through decreased accident costs. � The actual property damage accident costs were taken from the accident re- ports. When personal injuries were involved the National Safety Council figure � of $2200 per injury was used. No fatalities were recorded during the two year study period. In addition to checking the types of collisions in which signal sight � distance could have been a contributing factor, the accident records indicated that the total number of all accidents at the ten signalized intersections studied was 354 for the one year period prior to the installation of the over- heads and l71 during the one year period following the installation of the over- � head signals. This is a reduction over 50'�0. CONCLUSIONS � The data gathered from evaluating the accident history at the ten Snelling Ave. intersections have strongly indicated that overhead signals should be in- stalled along other arterials in the City of St. Paul . It, of course, is im- � possible to suggest that all future projects similar in nature to the Snelling Ave, projects will produce as dramatic an improvement in the accident situation, however, it would still appear that improvements in the accident history along � other arterials are almost certain to occur. � � ,SZ i , N L � u � QO M ?

(ONE-WAY NORTHBOUND) AND � EDGERTON ST. (ONE-WAY SOUTHBOUND) FROM SOUTH OF MINNEHAHA AVE. TO LARPENTEUk AVE. This report lists the standard advantages and disadvantages of one-way ' street systems, as well as those which are unique to St. Paul and the above mentioned streets in particular. � EXISTING CONDITIONS Payne Ave. is an arterial street from its intersection with E. Seventh St. � to the city limits at Larpenteur Ave. It is paved its entire length. It is a bus route and a truck route. Payne Ave. is a Municipal State Aid street. Edgerton St. is an arterial street. It is paved from Case Ave. to Ivy Ave. � and oiled from Payne Ave. to Case Ave. and from Ivy Ave. to Larpenteur Ave. It is a County Aid street. Edgerton St. also has continuity into Ramsey County with a full diamond interchange with T.H. #36. � PHYSICAL MODIFICATIONS REQUIRED In order to create a one-way pair the following physical modifications would � be required: l . Modification of existing signalized intersections. Both the signal , heads and signal controllers at all signalized intersections along both Edgerton St. and Payne Ave. would have to be modified. 2. New signals would have to be installed at the following intersections: ' Minnehaha Ave. and Edgerton St. , Payne Ave. and Larpenteur Ave. and possibly a signal at Case Ave. and Edgerton St. These signals would be required because of the increased traffic at these intersections. � The signal at Larpenteur Ave, and Payne Ave, would have to be installed by the Ramsey County Engineering Department. 3. Modification of existing signing and pavanent markings. Examples of � signing changes would be the relocation of bus stop signs, snow emer- gency signs, parking restriction signs, etc. on both Payne Ave. and Edgerton St. New signs which would be required would be the typical � signs denoting the one-way streets. Pavement markings would have to be adapted to the new street system. 4. Installation and modification of traffic islands at the intersection � of Wheelock Pkwy. , Parkway Dr. and Edgerton St. This would be required because of the removat of several traffic movements from the present traffic patterns at this intersection. Also the stop sign control � would be reversed at this intersection. � � 172 ' ' � ADVANTAGES ' This report lists advantages in two categories: a) Those standard advantages which are inherent in any one-way street system� and b) Those advantages resulting fran this specific proposal . , l . Increased capacity - There are fewer delays due to turning move- ments, better use of odd street widths and improved signal timing. � 2. Increased safety - Accidents would be reduced. Because of the ability to platoon and control the speed of vehicles on one-way streets, vehicle and pedestrian movements crossing or entering � the one-way street are greatly improved. There are also fewer vehicle conflicts and no head-on possibilities. Coordination of signals is greatly simplified and improved. ' 3. Improved operations - Travel times to destinations are reduced because of improved signal progression and the reduction in con- gestion. Increased street width for traffic moving in one di- , rection makes it easier for traffic to bypass stalled vehicles, street repairs, etc. 4. Improved economic conditions - One-way streets improve capacity , and safety much more economically than construction of wider streets and/or the prohibition of parking. Ecanomlc studies made in various parts of the country show that businessmen who oppose the one-way before its installation generally became staunch , supporters of one-way streets after their operation had been in effect for some period of time. � Some additional unique advantages to Edgerton St. and Peyne Ave. are listed below: l . Because the southbound buses on Payne Ave. would be moved to , Edgerton St. , approximately 50i6 of the parking whlch has been ranoved for the bus stops on Payne Ave. would be available for customer parking. , 2. Excellent signal progression could be established along both Edgerton St. and Payne Ave. Signal progression would also be greatly improved on Maryland Ave. at its Intersection with these , streets. 3. The traffic patterns at the intersection of Wheelock Pkwy. , Ed- ' gerton St. and Parkway Dr. would be simplified and greatly improved by creating the one-way pair. 4. Because of the increased capacity of both Payne Ave. and Edgerton � St. the bus transit on both of these will be greatly improved because of this. � � , 173 , � DISADVANTAGES , The following disadvantages for the Edgerton-Payne one-way shouid be mentioned; l . Some increase in turns i� the wrong lane can be expected. � 2. For certain trips driving distance will be increased. � 3. Emergency vehicles will experience somewhat greater difficulty. 4. Some businesses may assume there is an economic loss on a one-way � street compared with a two-way street. 5. Portions of the two streets will experience increased traffic and ' especially on the residentiai portions of Edgerton St. and Payn� Ave. 6. Edgerton St. should be designated a truck route for southbound traffic since Payne Ave. for both directions is presently a designated truck � route. 7. A fairly substantial investment will be required for the channeli2ation change at Edgerton St., Parkway Dr. and Wheelock Pkwy. a�d for new ' traffic signals. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS ' It is our recommendation that the one-way plan be Installed, since the overall advantages are greater than the disadvantages. We feel a one-way proposal is far more economical and feasibie than any proposed major construc- � tion or widening projects.

SEVENTH ST. (ONE-WAY WESTBOUND) AND � MINNEHAHA AVE. (ONE-WAY EASTBOUND) FROM � MENDOTA ST. TO HAZEL ST. � EXISTING CONDITIONS E. Seventh St. is an arterial street from downtown to Hazel St. It is , paved its entire leqgth and is a bus a�d truck route. E. Seventh St. is a Municipal State Aid street. Minnehaha Ave. is an arterial street. It is paved its entire length, is � a bus route and is designated T.H. #212 from E. Seventh St. to McKnight Rd. PHYSICAL MODIFICATIONS REQUIRED , In order to create a one-way pair the following physical modifications would be required: l . Modification of existing signalized intersections (signal heads and ' signal co�trollers). 2. Modification of existing signing and pavement markings. , 3. Island channelization at the intersection of E. Seventh St. and Hazel St. ADVANTAGES , The advantages associated wlth this speclfic one-way pair system are: � 1 . A one-way pair system would improve traffic flow in the E. Seventh St. - Minnehaha Ave. corridor without the need for large capltai expenditures for right-of-way for widening. � 2. A 20% capacity improvement in thr P.M. rush hour at the E. Seventh St. , Mendota St. and Minnehaha Ave., intersection which presently experiences ' considerable congestion. � 3. Turning movements at the intersection of E. Seventh St., Mendota St. and Minnehaha Ave. will be reduced and greatly improved. ' ' 4. Excellent signal progression can be established along both E. Seventh St. and Minnahaha Ave. DISADVANTAGES � The disadvantages associated with this specific one-way pai� system are: � 1 . Ingress and egress to the 3M Company Warehouse located on Hezel St. - a faw blocks north of E. Seventh St. and Cemstone Cement Company located on Minnehaha Ave. would become difficult. ' � 226 � ' ' 2. Si�ce the distance between the one-wa airs is alm�st one-fourth of Y P a mile. some inconvenience to bus riders would occur. ' CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS After reviewing the advantages and disadvantages from a traffic engineering ' viewpolnt, we recommend making E. Seventh St. and Minnehaha Ave. a o�e-way pair system. However� the Traffic Bureau has msde no attdnpt to evaluate the economic considerations as seen by the businessmen or the effect of the bus route changes � required. � i 1 i 1 i 1 . � i . 1 1 � 1 1 1 � ZZ� � PICTORIAL R VI W E E ' E.
