<br />Cultural Resources <br /> <br />Archeological and historical resources were identified within Y2 mile of each proposed station <br />site and 1,4 mile around track segment areas. Archeological resources were identified using <br />the Mn/Model application which determines a probability rating of "low", "medium", or <br />"high", as to the likelihood of existing resources in the area. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Historical importance, which is often determined at local, state and national levels, is also <br />addressed in this portion of the table. Historical societies and other local organizations <br />provided data on historically important sites including those listed on inventories completed <br />by the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO). SHPO inventories include sites 50 years <br />old or more; the inventories are not based on significance. The number of properties listed on <br />the National Register of Historic Places are shown in the impact tables. A listing of all <br />historical properties is in Appendix A. <br /> <br />Traffic, Parking and Ridership <br /> <br />This portion of the table briefly describes anticipated use at each station as it relates to <br />passenger totals, traffic levels and adequate parking areas. Access to the station site is also <br />addressed including potential areas of concern. <br /> <br />The following tables include preliminary ridership results for each potential station identified <br />in the corridor. There are two scenarios presented, one utilizes Rice as a starting point while <br />the other begins in downtown St. Cloud. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />South - Rice to Minneapolis <br /> 2020 2005 <br />Station Drive Walk Total Drive Walk Total <br />1 Rice 76 2 78 75 2 77 <br />2 E St. Cloud 166 62 228 165 56 221 <br />3 Clear Lake 20 46 66 19 45 63 <br />4 Becker 8 61 69 6 48 54 <br />5 Big Lake 515 190 705 436 155 591 <br />6 Elk River 602 700 1303 487 562 1049 <br />7 Ramsev/Anoka 633 583 1216 552 470 1023 <br />8 Coon Rapids 1172 738 1910 1112 658 1771 <br />9 Fridlev 1320 461 1781 1293 458 1751 <br />10 NE Mpls 0 628 628 0 595 595 <br />11 Dwtn Mpls 0 0 0 0 0 0 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Commuter Rail Feasibility Study <br />March 24, 1999 <br /> <br />8-6 <br />Social and Environmental Impacts <br />
