Chapters 1-3 create a case for implementing a number of roadway improvement actions by documenting existing and forecast future roadway conditions. Chapter 4 describes and prioritizes the roadway improvement actions developed. Chapter 5 provides guidance on how the city should proceed with some of their day-to-day transportation planning functions. This chapter provides general recommendations on what Elk River should do in order to successfully implement the roadway improvement actions identified. The general recommendations are as follows: Complete the corridor studies identified in Chapter 4. In order to determine more precisely what types of roadway improvement actions should be implemented, corridor studies on many of the major roadways in the city should be completed. In general, these studies would look at environmental, land use, engineering, and financial
