29 <br />Middle Segment – Cleveland Rd (CR 40) to 181st Ave (CSAH 12) <br />7KHSULPDU\LVVXHVLGHQWL¿HGIRUWKLVVHJPHQWLQFOXGHGYHKLFOHVSHHGVSRRULQWHUVHFWLRQVLJKWOLQHVZLWKDFXUYLQJURDGLOOHJDO <br />bypassing using the shoulder or turn-lane, and a lack of non-motorized facilities. <br />To address these issues, two typical roadway sections were explored: a three-lane section with center left turn lane (CLTL) and a <br />two-lane section with raised median and dedicated turn-lanes where warranted. <br />Three-Lane Typical Section <br />The following improvements will be included with this typical section: <br />• 11-foot drive lanes <br />• Center left turn lane throughout segment <br />• Both rural or urban sections are viable alternatives for this improvement. <br />• A rural section, without curb and gutter, is generally less costly than an urban section. Eliminating curb and gutter <br />will, however necessitate a wider buffer (24- 34-feet) between the roadway and trail, requiring a wider right-of-way <br />and potentially higher cost. <br />• An urban section, with curb and gutter, will be more costly, but will allow for a tighter right-of-way. An urban section <br />from 181st (CSAH 12) to Tyler St. would be appropriate and recommended to extend the character from the south <br />segment and to support a trail on the east side and sidewalk on the west side of TLR while managing right-of-way <br />impacts. <br />• 10- to 35-foot boulevard on east side (urban to rural section respectively) <br />• Extend 10’ trail from Trott Brook Pkwy to Cleveland Rd (CR 40) <br />• Extend sidewalk on east side north to 187 <br />th Ave NW in the near term. A long term connection could be made to 193rd Ave <br />NW via Tyler St NW as development occurs. <br />Anticipated Outcomes <br />This typical section is expected to provide the following outcomes: <br />• Narrower lanes create a sense of a tighter corridor to aid in slowing vehicle speeds <br />• Remove turning vehicles from the through-lane will improve corridor drive time and is anticipated to reduce or eliminate <br />illegal bypassing. <br />• A CLTL will also create a reaction zone between the travel lanes <br />• Extending the trail to Cleveland road along with the sidewalk connections will provide a missing connection in the non- <br />motorized network. <br />69’ Right-of-Way <br />10’ Trail10’ Blvd.11’ Drive Lane11’ Drive Lane 12’ Center Left Turn Lane <br />2’ Clr.3’ Clr. <br />4’Shld.4’ Shld. <br />Alternative #1 - Three-lane Section <br />Middle Segment <br />PLOHV(VWLPDWHGFRVWSHUPLOH LQFOXGHVWUDLOFRVWV <br />Alternative #1 Three-Lane Section
