In addition, appropriate sanitary sewer repairs will be made, lead water services in the right of way wiil be replaced, and storm sewer and sanitary sewer reconnections will be made at the request of property owners. This project area is generally bounded by Sneiling Avenue on the west, St. Ciair Avenue on the north, Hamline Avenue on the east, and Randolph Avenue on the south (see attached map). In addition to the residential streets to be reconstructed, Jefferson Avenue between Sneiling and Hamline will be done as an MSA route. The features to be constructed on Jefferson are the same as described above for the residential streets. EXISTING CONDITIONS All the residential streets in the project area are oiled. Most of the streets have concrete curb, although there are some streets that have no curb at all. The defined street widths are between 9.2 m and 9.6 m(approximately 30' and 32'}, but several streets without curbs have widened through use over the years. The street surfaces are generally in fair condition. Most of the existing street fighting within the project area is on NSP wood poles. There are several streets intersecting St. Clair that have an oid lantern around the corner on the cross street. These lights on the cross streets wiil be removed and replaced by the new lantern lighting system. Any bent straw lights on the streets to be reconstructed will also be removed and replaced by the new lantern lighting system. Jefferson Avenue is an oiled street with several biocks of concrete curb, generally 32' wide, and in fair to poor condition. The existing street lighting on Jefferson is on NSP wood poles. Parking on Jefferson between Snelling and Fiamline is allowed only on the south side. As of May 1998, the average daily traffic on Jefferson was 3275 vehicles. The intersections of Jefferson and Hamiine, and Jefferson and Snelling are controlled by traffic signals. PROPOSEDIMPROVEMENTS It is proposed to improve the following oiled streets with the construction of new bituminous q�-loqa— surfaced streets with concrete curb and gutter, concrete driveway aprons and outwalks, and boulevards landscaped with sod and trees. In addition, appropriate sanitary sewer repairs will be made, lead water services in the right of way will be replaced, and storm sewer and sanitary sewer connections will be made at the request of property owners.

Public Works is proposing to reconstruct the street at the existing width of 32' or 9.6 m(0.6 m- 3.3 m- 3.3 m- 2.4 m), maintaining the existing parking restrictions. This meets current MSA standards. No new traffic signal locations are planned. Decisions regarding the final street widths will be made keeping in mind the right-of-way widths, existing street widths, any relevant neighborhood issues, and the impact on boulevard trees. New curb may be hand formed to avoid damaging boulevard trees or their roots. Tree trimming may be necessary to facilitate construction. The following streets will also have a lantern style street lighting system installed as part of this project.

CLAIR AVENUE TO RANDOLPH AVENUE (9.6 m) JEFFERSON AVENUE - HAMLINE AVENUE TO SNELLING AVENUE (9.6 m) Jefferson Avenue will be reconstructed as an MSA route. Public Works is proposing to reconstruct the street at the existing width of 32' or 9.6 m(0.6 m- 3.3 m- 3.3 m- 2.4 m), maintaining the existing parking restrictions. This meets current MSA standards. No new traffic signal locations are planned. Decisions regarding the final street widths will be made keeping in mind the right-of-way widths, existing street widths, any relevant neighborhood issues, and the impact on boulevard trees. New curb may be hand formed to avoid damaging boulevard trees or their roots. Tree trimming may be necessary to facilitate construction. The following streets will also have a lantern style street lighting system installed as part of this project.
