The location is in <br />close proximity to existing business and the Northstar commuter rail <br />station and would be located in currently undeveloped land. <br />» Options to explore further with this concept were also discussed. <br />The potential to have a near term signal at 67th or at the future <br />interchange location should be further explored in lieu o f 165th Avenue <br />to create a stronger near term connection to the existing business, the <br />Gateway industrial park and a more direct, second access to Highway <br />~o from the Northstar commuter rail station. <br />22 17131.
