10. Temporary Local Road Mitigation
I-35W construction may increase traffic on some local roads
Local roads were reviewed with city partners some temporary traffic management options
Temporary changes will occur at some local intersections including:
Temporary traffic signals
Restriping to add turn or through lanes
Signal timing adjustments
Table 18-3: Local Traffic Mitigation
Long Lake Road & I-694 EB Ramps: Pave an additional NBlane by removing a portion of the median, as necessary, to maintain two northbound thru lanes on Long Lake Road
8th Avenue NW & 10th Street NW: Convert the northbound right-tum lane on 8th Avenue NW into a shared no1thbound left-tum/right-tum lane
Old Highway 8 & 8th Avenue NW: Install temporary channelizing "pork chops" on the northwest and northeast quadrants using pavement markings and cones to provide for additional turning capacity during detours.
CR D W & I-35W--Northbound Ramp: Convert the northbound I-35W exit ramp shared thru/right-tum lane to a shared left-tum/thru/right-tum lane
CRDW &CR 88: Convert the inside northbound CR 88 thru lane into a shared northbound left-tum/thru lane
Snelling Avenue & Hamline Avenue & County Road F Intersection: Close the southbound left-tum on Hamline Avenue during closures of the southbound I-35W ramp closures between TH 10 and I-35W
Table 18-4: Local Traffic Mitigation - Signals
Long Lake Road &I-694 WB Ramps:
