Howard R. Green Company Project No. 802400J Pavement Rehabilitation Report City of Elk River, Minnesota At the time of construction of many of the streets within the old core City, there were no guidelines in place to ensure uniform construction. Design standards are now in place and all streets would be reconstructed in accordance with the current and proposed standards. In conjunction with street reconstruction, improvements to existing utilities including watermain, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer will be completed. A detailed description of each proposed improvement is provided below. Aisc included are digitally prepared photographs showing "before" and "after" proposed improvements. The proposed street improvements include: Uniform road width of 32 feet face-of-curb to face-of-curb All residential streets would be constructed to a uniform width of 32 feet face-of- curb to face-of-curb with B618 concrete curb and gutter. Residential streets that do not currently meet this requirement would be examined to determine if widening or narrowing the street is feasible during the preliminary design stage. There are some streets within the City where a wider street width is necessary based on average daily traffic counts, such as collector and county roads, and where parking occurs on both sides of the street as a regular occurrence, such as Main Street. In order to maintain a high level of service on these heavily used streets, a width that meets the traffic needs would be used. Concrete driveway aprons will be constructed at all driveway locations regardless of driveway type. -3-
