Basis of Analysis (cont): • City of Elk River Comprehensive Plan (indicates 70% of trips generated in EII< River will either originate from or be destined to other communities) • MnDOT corridor plan (also indicates 70% of trips generated in EII< River will either originate from or be destined to other communities). • Travel time to and from local destinations utilizing access to US 10 versus Yankton and Waco indicates US 10 trips are 2-3 minutes faster than using local streets. • To provide a conservative analysis (higher estimate than reality) it was assumed 15 percent of new site generated traffic would use local streets rather than US 10. This will add one trip through the neighborhood every eight minutes during the traffic peak time. • The existing neighborhood generates one trip every 35 seconds during the peak traffic time. • The trips from the proposed Broadway on 10 development will have no noticeable impact on the quality of life for the existing neighborhood.
