Funding for the project is federal, state <br />and local sources. Special assessment needs will be reviewed and identified through the <br />design process. <br /> <br />This project will provide the framework to further develop the transportation system within <br />the City of Elk River as well as maintain and supplement Sherburne County and MnDOT’s <br />respective systems. The proposed connection with US 10/169 (about 500’ south of 167th <br />Street) will provide a high capacity intersection (traffic signal) with the future ability to <br />construct an interchange. The City has received federal surface transportation funding ($2 <br />million) and state local partnership funding (up to $1 million). The proposed project will <br />include topographic survey, community engagement, preliminary design, right of way <br />identification (existing and proposed), environmental assessment, geotechnical investigation <br />and final design. All property appraisals will be handled by the City through on staff <br />resources or the assistance of a separate property acquisition firm.
