COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE';; DISCUSSION WITH PLANNING & ZONING
A. Rural Reserve
Mr. Berkowitz and Mr. Jansh reviewed the Comprehensive Plan update with the Council and
Planning & Zoning Commission.
Mr. Janish stated during discussions with staff and Met Council, it came to question some of the
land values and what they guide for density in the area. That would determine if it is feasible to
run a pipe through the Rural Reserve or not. Another item discussed were some of the farmers in
the area and continuing to move forward with things. Consultants and Coon Creek Watershed
took a look and ran two different models. One was where all the culverts would be pulled out
which had some impact on what would be flood plain and what would not. There was a meeting
with the farmers in the area and they were told for approximately $20,000 the study could continue
Andover City Council Workshop Meeting
Minutes —March 27, 2018

1 or it could be looked at later, at time of development. Another issue is as Atlas 14 precipitation
2 gets adopted and flood plains get updated some developers might look at this area and see the flood
3 plain maps and decide they do not want to deal with going through that process in order to develop.
4 The farmers in the area reviewed this and decided they were not interested and thought the
5 developers could worry about it.
7 Mayor Trude asked if part of the concern was disturbing areas currently being farmed. Mr.
8 Berkowitz stated that was not a concern. Mr. Janish stated the impacts the farmers would have
9 experienced would have been no different than if the culvert were replaced. He stated they would
10 not have to take the culvert out to add another one, smaller culverts could be added to increase
11 flow.
12
13 Commissioner Koehler VI asked if the Rural Reserve tag is removed by an act of decision or is
14 there a sunset on it. Mr. Janish stated it is on an act of decision. Ms. Hanson stated the Met
15 Council is requiring them to keep this designated as a Rural Reserve.
16
17 Mr. Janish continued with review of the Rural Reserve and stated fringe areas in the Rural Reserve
18 are important for future connection of roads. They are anticipating development along the fringe
19 areas but they are anticipating most development will happen north of Veterans Memorial
20 Boulevard.
21
22 Mayor Trude asked if there will be a connection from Andover Boulevard to Round Lake
23 Boulevard. Mr. Berkowitz stated that connection will probably be difficult with the Atlas 14 study
24 going on in that area and it may be a potential flood plain area. He thought a connection would be
25 further north.
26
27 Councilmember Holthus thought the likelihood of the Rural Reserve being developed would be
28 based on demand and at this time she did not see any demand.
29
30 Commissioner Sims asked what the plan was for transportation once it develops. Mr. Berkowitz
31 stated because development will begin on the fringe of the Rural Reserve that will be dealt with
32 on the County roads. He stated development on the fringes will not be very dense so it will not be
33 as big of an issue, once urban development happens then Veterans Memorial Boulevard will be
34 more important.
35
36 B. Transportation Plan Update
37
38 Mr. Berkowitz reviewed the transportation plan.
39
40 Mayor Trude asked if some of the items at the bottom of the list that have been addressed could
41 they be removed. Mr. Berkowitz stated they wanted to leave all of the hot spots in to show what
42 has been done. Mayor Trude indicated that was a good idea and she would like to add Hanson
43 Boulevard/Andover Boulevard, Hanson Boulevard at the Community Center, even though they
44 will be addressed with the reconstruction of Hanson Boulevard so they become part of the history.

1 Commissioner Koehler VI asked to have Crosstown Boulevard and Crosstown Drive be added
2 north of the Fire Station, his concern is the intersection can become blocked for Fire Truck access.
3 Mr. Berkowitz stated it is on the list and possible reconstruction to include a potential roundabout,
4 along with a potential roundabout at Nightingale Street. Commissioner Koehler VI thought the
5 intersection should be done soon because it is bad for all of the roads and gets backed up.
7 Mr. Berkowitz reviewed the turn lanes on Bunker Lake Boulevard going into Walmart and the
8 south shopping area. He indicated this was requested to be added by Walmart and the County put
9 it in. He did not think the turn lane could be widened, like the turn lane on Hanson Boulevard by
10 the Sheriff's Office because the median is not wide enough and a total road reconstruct would need
11 to be done in that area to accommodate a wider turn lane.
12
13 Chairperson Nemeth stated on page 17 there is typo, bullet point two on the turnback section,
14 County Road 58 is Valley Drive, not Old Valley Drive. On the transportation plan in the numbers
15 on page 26 of the transportation analysis, they are talking about Andover Farms and item 77 is
16 also that under transportation, however it is showing a population in 2016 going from 270
17 population to 2040 to 260. On page 89, given the road development map the counts appear wrong
18 on that.
19
20 Mr. Berkowitz reviewed the Anoka County road tumbacks with the Council and Commission.
21
22 C. Wastewater and Sewer Plan Update
23
24 Mr. Berkowitz reviewed the Wastewater and Sewer Plan. Mr. Berkowitz stated Assistant City
25 Engineer Jason Law has spent a lot of time working on this valuable document.
26
27 D. Water Resources Management Plan Update
28
29 Mr. Berkowitz briefly reviewed the Water Resources Management Plan.
30
31 E. Water Supply Plan Update
32
33 There are 2 plans related to this. One plan is approved through MNDNR and the other is an internal
34 Comprehensive Water System Plan that staff is currently working with a consultant to update.
35
36 Mr. Berkowitz briefly reviewed the plan.

9
10 Mr. Janish reviewed the Accessory Structures Code Amendment with the Council.
11
12 Mr. Patch stated when he tries to prepare an ordinance he tries to whittle it down to what needs to
13 be said.
14
15 Mr. Patch reviewed different types of accessory structures with the Council. The Council agreed
16 they like structures with nicer fagades that complement the homes.
17
18 Mayor Trude thought the current variance process works well. Councilmember Holthus agreed.
19
20 Mr. Janish showed some out building photos and the Council discussed which ones would be

15 DISCUSS SKETCH PLAN — PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT — ESTATES AT CEDAR
16 RIDGE — 164 74 HANSONBLVD. NW
17
18 Mr. Janish explained the City Council would be reviewing a sketch plan for a single-family
19 planned unit rural residential development. The developer submitted a narrative of the proposed
20 Planned Unit Development (PUD). The PUD sketch plan process is to provide feedback to the
21 developer through the Andover Review Committee (ARC), Planning and Zoning Commission,
22 Park and Recreation Commission and City Council. A PUD is to encourage more efficient
23 allocation of density and intensity of land use and it must be demonstrated to the satisfaction of
24 the City Council that a higher quality development will result than could be otherwise achieved
25 through strict application of this Code. Comments by ARC were provided to the Council for their
26 review.
27
28 The property is not located within the MUSA Boundary and the Comprehensive Land Use is Rural
29 Residential. Access would be from Hanson Boulevard NW. The Anoka County Highway
30 Department is in the process of reviewing the sketch plan. Lots will be served by individual septic
31 systems and wells.
32
33 The applicant is requesting a PUD for the purpose of flexibility in Code requirements including
34 size and dimension; primarily to have flexibility to minimize tree removal and wetland impacts.
35
36 Gross density requirements in the rural residential area is 2.5 acres/0.4 unit per acre. The proposed
37 sketch plan meets the gross density requirements set forth in the City Code.
38
39 The LRRWMO will need to review the preliminary plat and the developer will need to address
40 any issues that are raised during that review prior to a public hearing being scheduled for the
41 preliminary plat.
42
43 A public hearing was held on March 13, 2018. There was no public comment with concerns about
44 the density of the development, the only public comment related to hunting and farm animals that
45 may be complained about by new residents. The Planning and Zoning Commission liked the
Regular Andover City Council Meeting
Minutes—April 3, 2018
Page 3
layout, but would like to see more in terms of architectural standards for the homes.
3 Josh Bergeron, applicant, stated he did not know what the City Code is, as to how far from a
4 boarding business a residential lot could be platted. The current residence is adjacent to Dover
5 Kennels. Dover Kennels plan to acquire another 1.5 acres, for a total of over 7 acres. Mr. Bergeron
6 has been in contact with the kennel owners and they are in agreement with this plan. Lot number
7 4 would need to be taken back from the contract -to -deed, and in exchange they would get another
8 piece of property. As a result, the kennel owner will actually give some land back in exchange for
9 the 1.5 acres. They have coordinated a purchase agreement to the south to maintain a buffer
10 between the kennel business and the development. The tree line will be maintained to assist with
11 that buffer. All of the homes on the property are being put in open areas to preserve trees. The
12 applicant quantified just under an acre of tree removal. Effort was made to make 2.5 -acre lot sizes
13 work, but the road costs became cost prohibitive because lots would need to creep into the swampy
14 acreage. The result was creation of 2 -acre lots where almost all of the lot is usable, as opposed to
15 other options. The applicant plans to build a home on lot 7. He confirmed the land was originally
16 going to be property for the applicant's parents and it was not his intention to be a developer. Mr.
17 Bergeron outlined the "snowball effect" of trying to build on the property. The applicant has met
18 with City staff for informational review and he has heard they would like turn lanes on Hanson
19 Boulevard and two entrances/exits due to public safety concerns.
20
21 Mayor Trude acknowledged this was a lot to figure out to build on your parent's property.
22
23 Councilmember Holthus expressed she does not like to go against the City Code in general. She
24 would like to follow the 2.5 -acre size limit. Mr. Bergeron stated that would mean losing 4 or 5
25 lots which makes the road/development cost prohibitive.
26
27 Councilmember Bukkila stated she agrees with Councilmember Holthus, and she was trying to see
28 the developer's perspective, and the hardship, and at the same time, she was concerned about
29 competing lifestyles [kennel] of larger acreage compared to smaller acreage. She would like to
30 see this development as a transition from larger acreage to smaller acreage. She stated the Council
31 cannot approve anything without a visual perspective of what the homes might look like. She feels
32 this development lacks consistency and cohesiveness.
33
34 Councilmember Holthus suggested eliminating one lot on the south and one on the north, losing 2
35 lots and maintaining 2.5 acres according to City Code. She is also concerned about the property
36 backing up to the kennel.
37
38 Mr. Bergeron asked about granting a variance on the cul-de-sac length and the curb and gutter
39 requirement. Mayor Trude responded that a rural PUD does allow a variance for these types of
40 issues and that rural developments have gone back to ditch systems and rain gardens overall. The
41 applicant asked what would happen if he scrapped this plan and kept to rural development. Mr.
42 Berkowitz stated that curb would be required, but a ribbon curb could be permitted in conjunction
43 with plantings in ditches. He reiterated the difference is when you use a ditch system, it is low
44 impact, which can be part of the PUD process.
45

Minutes—April 3, 2018

Councilmember Knight asked about shrinking the size of the lots. Mr. Bergeron responded the 13
lots vary from 1.8 — 2.4 acres. Mr. Knight stated a preference for lots that are 2.5 acres.
Mayor Trude stated a PUD should have special qualities. She said it is hard to imagine a new
home backing up to the Dover Kennels area. She suggested the applicant come to a future Council
workshop.
7 Mr. Bergeron confirmed he understood the City's concern. He commented he would be very
8 happy to be able to put in a very long driveway. Mayor Trude responded that it seems like a
9 hardship that is very natural to resolve within a family, in reference to sharing a driveway.
10
11 Councilmember Bukkila stated she would rather make concessions on the cul-de-sac length. She
12 stated she does not like taking things away from people and noted it only takes one seller to make
13 a difference in the harmony of a neighborhood. She indicated if the developer could make
14 enhancements in architectural aspects, landscaping or overall finished quality of the area, it would
15 make her lean towards a PUD.
16
17 Mr. Bergeron stated he did not realize that illustrating the type of home is a requirement of a sketch
18 plan.
19
20 Councilmember Bukkila mentioned rain gardens and boulders as enhancements and stated she was
21 not against what he was trying to do. She encouraged working with staff as she did not want to
22 brainstorm his business concept in a future Council workshop. She thought staff could best help.
23 Mr. Bergeron said the sketch plan was developed on advice of the staff.
24
25 Mayor Trude described the applicant as a reluctant developer.
26
27 Mr. Dickinson stated the Council could not offer an approval on a variance process with just a
28 sketch plan before them.
29
30 The applicant asked what the Council wanted to see.
31
32 Councilmember Holthus showed her illustration to make the lots 2.5 acres.
33
34 Councilmember Bukkila asked if the cul-de-sac could be longer. The applicant said it could not.
35 She also asked about moving the cul-de-sac to the south.
36
37 Councilmember Bukkila stated she wanted to see larger lot sizes, however that could be done. The
38 lots butting up to the back of the kennel would need to become 2 lots and then there would be extra
39 property left over.
40
41 Councilmember Bukkila indicated she would concede some of the requirements, if the
42 development had larger lots.
43
44 Mayor Trude had concerns about the lot adjacent to the farm.
45

1 Councilmember Bukkila stated she likes the long treeline.
2
3 The applicant asked for feedback on larger lots and a long cul-de-sac with ribbon curb and ditches.
4
5 Councilmember Bukkila responded the problem is whether or not it is going to be a temporary cul -
6 de -sac. She speculated that affordability would be an ongoing issue with future development.
7
8 The applicant indicated where the road was built originally, cutting through the center of the
9 property, and his thought about running the road back with the cul-de-sac. It was noted a lot of
10 the area is not buildable.
11
12 Alternative layouts were discussed that would have larger acreage, meeting the 2.5 requirement.
13
14 Mr. Dickinson reminded the Council they are too much into the design, and they should provide
15 comments regarding what has been proposed. Mr. Dickinson summarized the comments by stating
16 that preference was expressed for 2.5 acre lots, consideration to the existing use, mitigating impacts
17 on existing use, low impact development and high architectural standards, including landscape.
18
19 Additional discussion ensued regarding possible placement of the road.
20
21 Mayor Trude summarized if the developer did larger lots it is not as much of an issue for
22 Councilmembers as it relates to architectural standards.
23
24 Mr. Berkowitz stated in this case, if adjacent land can be served by this development, a developer
25 needs to provide access to a possible development (if it is landlocked).
26
27 Councilmember Knight asked about the kennel business and the impact on the prospective
28 neighborhood. Mr. Dickinson stated there have been no complaints at this point.
29
30 The applicant stated his ideal situation is to put one house out there and not develop the land further
31 and the kennel owners would prefer that too.
32
33 Councilmember Bukkila confirmed the Council can revisit this again.
34
35 Mr. Dickinson asked if a 2.5 acre plan would be acceptable, if it did not involve a PUD. Mayor
36 Trude had concerns about buffering uses. Councilmember Holthus was supportive of a horseshoe
37 street behind the kennels but meeting 2.5 acre minimums.
38
39 The applicant said he would go "back to the drawing board," as there are a large amount of costs
40 associated with a possible development.
41
42 Mr. Berkowitz asked about showing a ghost plat to the south. Councilmember Bukkila confirmed
43 she would like to see it. Councilmember Holthus and Mayor Trude did not feel strongly that it has
44 to tie in with the south.

DISCUSS PRELIMINARYPLAT — WINSLOW COVE — LENNAR HOMES
Mr. Janish explained the proposed plat contains 80 urban residential lots.
The property is located in the MUSA. The property is currently zoned R-4, Single -Family Urban
and the maximum density allowed is 1.75 — 3.6 units per acre. The net density for the proposed
development is 2.2 units per acre; therefore, it is compliant with the Comprehensive Plan.
9 The first phase will consist of approximately 30 lots on the western side of the plat, being accessed
10 from 152nd Avenue NW. Public street access to Winslow Cove will be from the north on Xeon
11 Street NW and from the west on 150'' Lane NW and 152"d Avenue NW.
12
13 At this time, staff recommends the connection between Xeon Street NW and 157'' Lane NW. The
14 trunk sewer and water lines are located in this area and will be extended to serve the plat. The
15 Coon Creek Watershed District (CCWD) completed the review of the preliminary plat and existing
16 wetlands have been delineated and approved by CCWD.
17
18 As part of the plat, staff expressed concerns about the oversized ponding area and the impact it has
19 on the ability of the land to be developed. The current land owner acknowledges that access to the
20 eastern portion of their land will no longer be possible at the railroad crossing. In conjunction,
21 Lennar Homes acknowledges that in exchange for the use of the valuable land for ponding
22 purposes, they agree to extend municipal water and sewer, at their expense, to the eastern side of
23 the railway. Staff recommends the approval of future phases of Winslow Cove be contingent on
24 municipal water and sewer being extended to the eastern side of the railway.
25
26 The Park and Recreation Commission reviewed the preliminary plat at the October 5, 2017
27 meeting. The Park and Recreation Commission recommends taking a portion of land to extend
28 Sophie's Park to the south and the remainder of park dedication in cash.
29
30 The City of Andover will extend a trail for Sophie's Park to the Winslow Cove development. Also,
31 the City proposes to acquire Lot 5, Block 5 for a trial underpass to create a trail link to the eastern
32 side of Andover.
33
34 Councilmember Holthus asked what would happen to Xeon Street and the street connection. Mr.
35 Janish responded they will be focused more on the western side in the first phase and the
36 connection would not be made. Long term, the road will go all the way to Andover Boulevard,
37 and in the interim to 150'h Lane. Mr. Janish confirmed there are no driveways proposed on Xeon
38 Street, except in the Sophie's South development. In Sophie's South, the traffic primarily goes to
39 the south.
40
41 Mayor Trude stated she liked the connection, the plan for the lay out of the park, and the tradeoffs

9 DISCUSS PRELIMINARYPLA T— WHITE PINE WILDERNESS FOURTHADDITION
10
11 Mr. Janish stated the White Pine Wilderness Fourth Addition preliminary plat contains 14 urban
12 lots proposed by Tollberg Homes. ARC has reviewed the preliminary plat and staff comments
13 have been submitted to the developer. The developer has made revisions according to staff
14 comments and will continue to work with City staff to satisfy all comments. Previously, the
15 developer proposed to excavate into the open space to the east. The excavation would generate
16 fill material needed for the development and it would also enhance the existing wetlands within
17 the open space. This was discussed at a recent Open Space Commission meeting in which all
18 members were opposed to the proposal; therefore, the developer is no longer pursuing it. The
19 LRRWMO has received the plat, they will be required to approve the permit.
20
21 The development will be accessed by extending Zilla Street NW to the north. Trunk sewer and
22 water lines are located within White Pine Wilderness Third Addition and will be extended to the
23 north for the Fourth Addition. The proposed lots meet the minimum lot size requirements for the
24 R-4 zoning district.
25
26 The property is located within the MUSA. It is zoned Single -Family Urban Residential (R-4).
27 The proposed next density for the Fourth Addition is 2.2 units per acre.
28
29 On January 18, 2018, the Park and Recreation Commission reviewed the plat. The Park and
30 Recreation Commission is recommending cash in lieu of land be required for the 14 buildable lots.
31
32 A public hearing was held on March 27, 2018. The Planning and Zoning Commission had minimal
33 discussion and recommended approval of the plat on a 6-0 vote (1 absent).
34
35 Mayor Trude inquired about the topography and the trail connection. She learned it will be graded
36 out during construction so there will be access to the open space land. There are concerns
37 regarding smaller lots and lawn encroachment on the open space. She asked about markers on the
38 property, with some kind of demarcation. Mr. Berkowitz confirmed that would be done.
39
40 Motion by Knight, Seconded by Bukkila, to approve Resolution No. R025-18, approving the final
41 plat of "White Pine Wilderness Fourth Addition" with the new resolution provided in the
42 supplemental information. Motion carried 4 ayes, 1 absent (Goodrich).

working in the City of Andover.
MA YORICO UNCIL INPUT
(Mayor Trude) Mayor Trude recounted the event in honor of Maddie Rooney was covered by two
television channels and had "standing room only." The Mayor considered it to be a great privilege
to host an Olympian, especially someone who is a role model for young athletes. There are also
plans for her to be the Grand Marshal of the Fun Fest parade. The Andover Hockey Association
was a co-sponsor. Cake and cupcakes were served for everyone. Law enforcement was there to
handle the crowds. It was estimated that 1,600 people were in attendance. It was a fun event with
"photo ops" for the kids. Mayor Trude stated that mywaterpledge.com is ramping up. Residents
can install the "app" on their phones and type in Andover, Minnesota. The "app" will ask
individuals to answer what charity they want to donate a car to if their city wins the contest. The
organization, Youth First, is Mayor Trude's recommendation for the car donation because of the
work they do in 3 cities, including Andover. To win, the City needs a lot of people to sign up.
The individual who is chosen from their City gets $5,000 off of their utility bill. In 2016, Andover
won 1St place and took 3`d place last year. Conserving water could save the City from having to
put in another well, which would save a lot of money.
In other news, Farmstead is having a breakfast for a $1 on April lld'. The Mayor noted that
charitable gaming has provided funding for Stepping Stones. The Mayor concluded by stating the
Mayors' Prayer Breakfast was very well attended.
ADJOURNMENT
Motion by Bukkila, Seconded by Holthus, to adjourn. Motion carried 4 ayes, 1 absent (Goodrich).
The meeting adjourned at 8:47 p.m.

Re: Sanitary Sewer Service Repair
Dear City Engineer:
I do hereby petition for sanitary sewer service repairs with the $25,285 cost of the
repair to be assessed against my benefiting property.
My home suffered a back-up in the sanitary sewer system on Dec 21, 2017,
CenterPoint Energy service was contacted to attempt to clear the back-up and
used a balloon bag type device to clear the line, which was not effective as the line
backed up again in the evening of January 1, 2018. Due to the passing of my
husband on Dec 22`d and the funeral on January 2od, CenterPoint was unable to
attend until January 3`d, when they attempted to snake the drain. The snake
apparently broke the pipe during this attempt as a loud bang was heard and the
water in the basement drain instantly went from clear to very muddy. I have filed a
claim against CenterPoint Energy for the cost of the repairs to the sanitary service
line completed by the City of Andover on January 19, 2018.
I request a six week abeyance period (without interest being charged) before this
cost is assessed as I attempt to resolve this claim with CenterPoint Energy.
Due to the high cost of repairs and my fixed income, if I am unsuccessful in
collecting the cost of repairs from CenterPoint Energy, I would like to be assessed
over a 15 year period.
Said petition is unanimous and the public hearing may be waived.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Peggy Carlson

Peggy Carlson Sewer Service Repair
714 140th LN NW
December 23, 2017
Matt received a call from Central Communications for a sewer back-up at 714 140" LN.
See Matt's report for the call.
January 3`d, 2018
I received a call from Peggy Carlson about a sewer line problem at her home. She had a couple
of different companies come out to see about clearing the blockage with no success. I told her
we could check the main line to make sure it was not in the main. We also had to locate the
sewer clean-out in her driveway as it was buried under the blacktop. See Tim's report.
January 8th, 2018
Peggy's neighbor, Kevin Denekamp 709 140' LN, came over to see what he could do and try to
uncover the clean-out. He called Doug Meister as well to assist in the effort as it was frozen
ground they had to deal with.
January 91h, 2018
Once it was uncovered Peggy had one of the same companies come back out and try to get
through the blockage from the driveway access. Again no success. Tim also went out to televise
the main line in the street to see if we could see anything from her service connection at the
main.
January 12th, 2018
I contacted Benjamin Franklin Plumbing to see if they could take a look at the service to see if
they could add a liner to the pipe. I also call Rene Perkins to see if he would be able to look at it
as well to determine a possible solution. I was to meet Rene on Tuesday January 16th as Monday
was a holiday for City staff.
Shane with Benjamin Franklin came out on Friday January 12" and tried to take a look with his
camera. He had no success as the line was full of water.
January 15th, 2018
Shane, with Benjamin Franklin return to see if he could jet through the blockage. He called to
inform me he was able to see a hole in the pipe but he had gotten his jet hose stuck in the main in
the street. He stated there was a lot of sand entering the pipe. I told him to not do any more as
we now have a worse scenario with sand entering the main. This could cause a blockage of the
entire sewer system to the east and we needed to get it corrected asap to avoid a serious problem.
January 16th, 2018
I met Rene Perkins and a representative from Blake Dewatering to assess the situation and make
a game plan. It was decided to dig up the service and make the repair.
January 17th, 2018
Perkins Contracting started the project by removing the blacktop and 4'-5' of frozen material.
Blake Dewatering came in the afternoon and setup their dewatering pump.
January 18th, 2018
Perkins was able to dig to the service and found the bend from the lateral line to the riser pipe
had been blown apart. The jet hose that was stuck in the line from Benjamin Franklin was not in
the main line as thought but was outside the main and going straight down into the earth. It was
not salvageable and had to be cut off. Perkins was able to cut off the broken pieces of pipe and
replace it with new. The site was backfilled to about 4' as there had to be a repair to a telephone
cable that was cut.
January 19th, 2018
Perkins finished the backfill and topped the area off with cold patch for the driving surface. Matt
and Steve went to the site to clear the sand from the main line. There was more sand down
stream of the manhole and it was determined to be ok to leave until Monday, January 22°d when
more time would be available to clear the rest of the sand out of the main.

4- 2040 Transportation Plan
III. EXISTING CONDITIONS
The development of a Transportation Plan begins with the collection and review of various data,
which can be denoted as existing conditions. These existing conditions, or characteristics,
provide the base upon which the system plan is then built. This chapter provides information on
certain existing conditions that have been reviewed during the preparation of the Transportation
Plan.
A. Roadway Jurisdiction
The Andover roadway system consists of County roads, County State -Aid Highways
(CSAH), Municipal State Aid (MSA) facilities and local City streets. No State of
Minnesota highways are in the City of Andover. A map indicating the roadway
jurisdiction is contained in Figure 1.
B. Roadway Functional Classification
The functional classification of roadways in the City of Andover consists of the following
types:
• `A' Minor Arterials
• `B' Minor Arterials
• Major Collectors
• Minor Collectors
• Local (which includes Minimum Maintenance Roads)
The functional classification system will be reviewed and discussed as part of the
Transportation Plan. The existing functional classification system is illustrated in
Figure 2.
C. Existing Traffic Volumes
The most recent daily traffic volume information for the primary roadways in Andover was
obtained from various sources including State and County traffic flow models and maps
and the City of Andover. The most recent (2014 or newer) daily traffic volume information
is provided in Figure 3.
D. Trails
There are a number of existing trails, both on- and off-road, in Andover. In addition to
these existing trails, the City has a Trail Plan designed to expand the existing network of
trails for use by the public. The existing Trails Plan is shown in Figure 4.
E. Transit Service
Andover lies outside the former Metropolitan Transit Taxing District and does not have
fixed route transit services. The routes closest to the city travel through Coon Rapids and
Anoka, but never enter the City of Andover. These are routes 805, 850 and 852.
Paratransit services, once provided by the Anoka County Traveler, are no longer
available. However, Anoka County Transit Link does provide service within Andover to
anyone needing transit services. Services are available Monday through Friday from
�{ R
5- 2040 Transportation Plan
6:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Reservations can be made Monday through Friday between the
hours of 7:00 AM and 3:30 PM, up to five days in advance of the trip. Same day rides
must be booked at least two hours before the desired pickup time. Cancellations of
service must be completed at least one hour before the scheduled pick-up time. Fares are
dependent on the mileage of the trip and are as follows as of October 1, 2017:
• Rush hour trips less than 15 miles - $4.50 each way
• Rush hour trips greater than 15 miles - $5.25 each way
• Non -rush hour trips less than 15 miles - $3.50 each way
• Non -rush hour trips greater than 15 miles - $4.25 each way
There are no park-and-ride or transit centers in Andover, although according to Metro
Transit's 2014 Metro Transit Rider Survey, Andover MN is one of the top ten (10) zip
code origins of Metro Transit ridership, based on percentage. Current regional Park -and -
Ride lots near Andover include:
• Anoka —Anoka Station — 4`h Avenue & Johnson Street
• Blaine — Northtown Transit Center — 85th Avenue & Jefferson
• Blaine — Paul Parkway — Paul Parkway & Ulysses Street NE
• Blaine— 951h Avenue Park & Ride — 95b Avenue NE & I -35W
• Coon Rapids — MTC Park & Ride -Foley Blvd —Between Coon Rapids Blvd and
East River Road near Hwy 610
• Coon Rapids — Coon Rapids -Riverdale Station — 121st Lane & Northdale Blvd.
• Coon Rapids — Foley Boulevard — 9425 Foley Boulevard
• East Bethel — Hwy 65 at County Road 24 (no bus service)
• East Bethel — East Bethel Theatre — 18635 Ulysses Street NE
• East Bethel — East Bethel Ice Arena — Hwy 65 between 205th Avenue & 209th
Avenue
• Elk River — Elk River Station — 171" Lane & Tyler Street NW
• Elk River - Hwy 169 & School Street NW (no bus service)
• Fridley — Fridley Station — 61" Avenue & Maine Street NE
• Fridley — Church of St. William — 6120 5h Street NE
• Ham Lake — Family of Christ Lutheran Church — 16345 Polk Street NE
• Ramsey — Ramsey Station — 7550 Sunwood Drive
In the event transit services are expanded into Andover, the City has discussed possible
locations in the past. Major north -south commuting routes, such as Hanson Boulevard
NW and Round Lake Boulevard NW, and east -west routes, such as Bunker Lake
Boulevard NW, should be examined for potential Park -and -Ride locations.

F. Rail System
The Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railroad operates on a rail track situated in a
north/south direction in the eastern part of the City. According to data collected by the
MnDOT Office of Freight, Railroads, and Waterways, an average of 14 trains per day
operate on this rail line at a maximum train speed of 50 miles per hour. A study
completed by Spack Consulting in 2017 found over a 48-hour period a total of 18 trains,
nine (9) per day, pass through the City of Andover based on video collected at the Bunker
Lake Boulevard rail crossing.
There are six (6) railroad grade crossings with public streets in Andover. There are also
four (4) private crossings in the City. The public street at -grade crossings are on the
following roadways:
• Bunker Lake Boulevard NW (Quiet Zone 2007)
• Andover Boulevard NW (Wayside Horn 2008)
• Crosstown Boulevard NW (Wayside Horn 2008)
• 16151 Avenue NW (Quiet Zone 2008)
• Ward Lake Drive NW
• 18151 Avenue NW
Flashers, gates, and bells presently control all crossings. Wayside homs were installed at
Andover Boulevard NW and Crosstown Boulevard in 2008 to help reduce train noise for
adjacent households. A median was constructed in 2007 to meet the Railroad Quiet Zone
requirements at Bunker Lake Boulevard NW and in 2008 at 1615` Avenue. The data
provided by MnDOT indicates there have been no rail crossing accidents in the last five
years in Andover. MnDOT establishes the type of crossing protection on the public
streets and has a process that involves variables such as train and vehicular volumes,
speeds, sight distance, and number of tracks in order to determine the crossing types. The
controls appear to be correct for those crossings in Andover. MnDOT works with cities if
a request for crossing review or improvement is presented by the City. Existing Quiet
Zones require recertification every two and a half to three years if based on Alternative
Safety Measure (ASM) standards or every four and a half to five years when based on
Supplemental Safety Measures (SSM).
G. Crash Data
Data regarding reported crashes in Andover can be obtained from the Minnesota
Department of Transportation's Minnesota Crash Mapping Analysis Tool (MnCMAT)
and/or through the Anoka County Sheriff's Department as crash data changes very
rapidly. If crash information is necessary to evaluate a particular location, the City will
obtain the necessary information from MnDOT and/or the Anoka County Sheriff's
Department.
H. Air Service
There are no airports within the City of Andover. The closest airport, the Anoka County -
Blaine Airport, is not within proximity to cause an effect with regard to airport runway
clearances and land use designation.
jib - 11 - 2040 Transportation Plan
I. Intersection "Hot Spots"
One element of the study includes an ongoing study of twenty (20) intersection "hot
spots." These locations were chosen originally by the Technical Advisory Committee
(TAC), in a previous plan update, following a review of the volumes and crash data as
well as the receipt of input from City staff and the public. These intersections were
selected based on the history of each location and not on anticipated issues in the future.
The intersections selected for traffic operation analysis are:
• Bunker Lake Boulevard NW (CSAH 116) and Crooked Lake Boulevard NW
• Bunker Lake Boulevard NW (CSAH 116) and Marigold Street NW
• Crosstown Boulevard NW (CSAH 18)/Crosstown Drive NW and 139th Avenue
NW
• Crosstown Boulevard NW (CSAH 18) and South Coon Creek Drive NW
• South Coon Creek Drive NW and Round Lake Boulevard NW (CSAH 9)

J. Traffic/Transportation Issues
The following are various transportation issues that should be addressed:
• Traffic is backed up 4-5 times per day by trains crossing Bunker Lake Boulevard
NW. All streets in Andover with rail crossings are delayed by trains.
• Nightingale Street NW intersects Crosstown Boulevard NW at an odd angle and
there is more foot traffic from the school. Traffic needs to travel slower.
Preliminary planning has begun on roundabout designs for this intersection.
• There is a need for a completed trail along Andover Boulevard NW between Vale
Street NW and Prairie Road NW.
• The trail on Crosstown Boulevard NW should be continued east from its current
terminus at the intersection with Xeon Street NW to the Miller Woods
neighborhood at 1591h Avenue NW near Andover Fire Station No. 3.
• Pedestrian crossings of Crosstown Boulevard, particularly at the intersections
with Yellow Pine Street NW and Xeon Street NW, need to be reviewed for
potential safety improvements.
• Round Lake Boulevard NW does not provide consistency through the corridor,
transitioning from four lanes down to two lanes and then back up to four lanes.
Having a consistent corridor would eliminate unnecessary merging and remove a
bottleneck in the City.
• Crosstown Boulevard NW to the east of the Hanson Boulevard NW intersection
does not provide turn lanes, shoulders, and/or by-pass lanes. The Crosstown
Boulevard NW intersections with Yellow Pine Street NW and Bluebird Street
NW are of particular concern due to increasing traffic and development activity.
These elements would improve both safety and capacity of the corridor.
Currently, right turn lanes and by-pass lanes are proposed for construction at
Crosstown Boulevard NW intersections with Yellow Pine Street NW and Avocet
Street NW in 2018.
• The intersection approach on Crosstown Boulevard NW to Crosstown Drive
NW/139'h Avenue NW is a potential concern for sight distance with difficult
viewing angles for turning traffic and the close proximity to emergency
operations related to the adjacent fire station.

IV. STUDY ELEMENTS ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATIONS
This chapter presents results and recommendations for the transportation elements that have been
analyzed during the preparation of this Transportation Plan.
A. Roadway Jurisdiction/MSA Routes
The State of Minnesota, through the gas tax, license fees, and motor vehicle sales tax,
collects funds to be used to construct and maintain the State's transportation system.
Most of the funds collected are distributed for use on the State's Trunk Highway (TH)
system, the County State Aid Highway (CSAH) system and the Municipal State Aid
Street (MSAS) system. The available funds are distributed 62% TH, 29% CSAH and 9%
MSAS. When a city's population goes above 5,000, they become eligible to receive a
portion of the MSAS funding. When this happens, the city develops a State Aid Street
system. The MSAS system can include existing roadways as well as future roadways.
In order to develop the City's State Aid system, the total mileage of all roadways within
the City is computed. The mileage the City can designate for their State Aid system is no
more than 20% of the total roadway mileage. As development occurs and new roadways
are constructed, the total mileage increases, and therefore, the total State Aid mileage will
also increase. Knowing that the mileage will increase in the future, it is wise to plan
where that mileage will be applied.
The City of Andover has an MSAS system in place and has been using State Aid funds
for roadway maintenance and construction. As part of this Transportation Plan, an
updated City collector system has been identified. Generally, the collector roadways are
the routes designated as State Aid Streets. The following section of this plan will look at
the City's existing MSAS system and make recommendations regarding system
revisions. This review will include removing some existing routes, designating new
routes and planning for future designations as the City's State Aid mileage increases.
The following recommendations are based on developing a State Aid system that
provides continuity of all routes through the City. The emphasis is placed on developing
north/south and east/west routes at uniform spacing throughout the City. These routes can
include trunk highways and County Roads, which may not be part of the City's system,
but provide continuity for the traveling public. The proposed and existing State Aid Road
designations are discussed below and are illustrated in Figure 6.

Turnbacks from Anoka County
There are seven County State Aid Highways and County Roads located within the City
that have been discussed as potential tumback routes. Anoka County would release these
roadways into the jurisdiction of the City. When this happens, the City will be allowed to
add these routes to their State Aid system. These routes will be added to the City's
existing state aid mileage, increasing the overall city system. Each year the City will
calculate the total mileage of roadways, take 20% of those miles and then add on the
turnback miles. This process allows a City to take a roadway from a county and receive
additional state aid funding to maintain it. The seven roadways identified by the County
as turnbacks but not acknowledged by the City are:
• County Road 18 (Crosstown Boulevard) (approximately 2.07 miles)
o From Crosstown Drive (County Road 18 extension) to Hanson Boulevard
(CSAR 78)
• County Road 58 (Valley Drive/Tulip Street NW) (approximately 3.15 miles)
o From 7th Avenue (CSAH 7) to 18151 Avenue (County Road 58)
• County Road 58 (181st Avenue) (approximately 0.49 miles)
o From Tulip Street NW (County Road 58) to Round Lake Boulevard (CSAH 9)
• County Road 158 (165th Avenue) (approximately 0.66 miles)
o From 7th Avenue (CSAH 7) to Valley Drive (County Road 58)
• CSAH 20 (161st Avenue) (approximately 1.00 miles)
o From Round Lake Boulevard (CSAH 9) to Verdin Street (County Road 59)
• CSAH 18 (Crosstown Boulevard) (approximately 1.71 miles)
o From 161" Avenue (CSAH 20) to Andover -Ham Lake City Line
• County Road 16 (Andover Boulevard) (approximately 1.99 miles)
o From Hanson Boulevard (CSAH 78) to Andover -Ham Lake City Line
These additions would add approximately 11 miles to the City's current MSAS system.
Existine MSA Routes to be Revised
With the existing layout of developments and land usages in Andover, the existing State
Aid routes improve the overall north/south and east/west continuity of the entire roadway
system and provide additional relief to the surrounding arterial roadway system.
However, with the addition of other future collector streets, additional mileage will be
needed to apply to those routes to provide the desired continuity. Routes to be removed
will be analyzed on a year by year basis.
At this point, no routes are proposed to be revised. If routes are to be revised in the
future, there are factors that need to be considered. Prior to removing a route from the
system, the City must determine if State Aid construction funds have been used on that
route over the past 20 years. If so, the City will have to pay back a prorated amount of the
construction funds to remove it from the system. Determining where and when those
funds were spent will be necessary to justify the removal of the MSA designation.
2040 Transportation Plan
Note: Although the City may plan to designate a future roadway to the State Aid system
as outlined within this plan, this designation does not have to occur immediately. The
City may not have enough mileage to provide for the designation. As the City grows and
road mileage increases, the City will gain additional mileage for the future dedication.
Upon receiving enough mileage, the City can designate a future roadway to the
Municipal State Aid Street system.
Future Municipal State Aid Street Designations
The function of the State Aid street system within the City is to provide for the movement
of vehicles along the heavier volume collector type system to the arterial roadway system
as well as connecting towns, communities, shipping points, parks, recreational areas, and
points of major traffic interest. It also can provide for the movement of vehicles along
non -arterial corridors within the City helping to distribute volumes and provide some
relief to the more heavily used arterial system. It is desirable to designate roadways in a
grid -like pattern to allow for the north/south and cast/west movement through the City.
New routes will be analyzed on a year by year basis.
B. Roadway Functional Classification System
The intent of a functional classification system is the creation of a roadway hierarchy that
collects and distributes traffic from local roadways and collectors to arterials in a safe and
efficient manner. Such classification aids in determining appropriate roadway widths,
speed limits, intersection control, design features, accessibility and maintenance
priorities. Functional classification also helps to ensure that non -transportation factors
such as land use and development, are considered in planning and design of the roadway
system.
A balanced system is desired, yet not always attainable due to existing conditions and
characteristics. The criteria of the functional classification system are intended to be
guidelines and are to be applied when plans are developed for the construction or
reconstruction of a given classified route. However, the guidelines may not be strictly
adhered to if the factors involved in a particular situation warrant an alternative approach.
Some roadways, for a short segment, may carry higher volumes than a roadway with a
higher classification. Spacing guidelines may not follow recommendations for a variety
of reasons such as topography, land use type and density, and environmental concerns.
The two major considerations in the classification of roadway networks are access and
mobility. Mobility is of primary importance on arterials. Thus limitation of access is a
necessity. The primary function of a local roadway, however, is the provision of access,
which in tum limits mobility. The extent and degree of access control is a very important
factor in the function of a roadway facility. The functional classification types utilized are
dependent upon one another in order to provide a complete system of streets and
highways.
-18- 2040 Transportation Plan
A complete functional design system provides a series of distinct travel movements. Most
trips exhibit six recognizable stages. These stages are as follows:
• Main movement
• Transition
• Distribution
• Collection
• Access
• Termination
As an example, Figure 7 depicts this hierarchy of movement by illustrating a hypothetical
trip using a freeway, which comprises the main movement. When the vehicle leaves the
freeway, the transition is the use of the freeway ramp at a reduced speed. The vehicle
then enters the moderate speed arterial, the distribution function, to travel toward a
neighborhood. From the arterial, the vehicle enters a collection road.
Then a local access road that provides direct approach to the residence or termination
point. Each of the six stages of the trip is handled by a facility designed specifically for
that function. Speeds and volumes normally decrease as one travels through the six stages
of movement.
It must be recognized that all intermediate facilities are not always needed for various trip
types. The character of movement or service that is provided has a function, and these
functions do not act independently. Thus, the number of movements in the travel
categories become consistent with function and the classification of that function.
Principal Arterials
Principal Arterial roadways serve major activity centers, higher traffic volumes, longer
trips and carry a higher proportion of total urbanized travel on a minimum of mileage.
Along these facilities, access needs to be limited in order to preserve the ability of the
roadway to accommodate the volumes and to maximize safety. Spacing varies from 2-3
miles for a fully developed area, 2-6 miles for a developing area, and 6-12 miles in rural
areas. The management criteria require that a 40 mph average speed be achieved during
peak traffic periods. Also, little or no direct land access should be allowed within an
urban area. Grade separated intersections are required for freeways and highly desired for
other principal arterial roadways. Currently, there are no principal arterials within the
City of Andover. Regionally, TH 10, TH 169, County Road 14 (between TH 10 and TH
65) and TH 65 are principal arterials.

Minor Arterials
Minor Arterial roadways connect the urban service area to cities and towns inside and
outside the region and generally service medium to short trips. Minor Arterials may also
provide an alternate route for congested Principal Arterial roadways. Minor Arterials
connect principal arterials, minor arterials, and connectors. The spacing ranges from %4 to
'/4 of a mile in metro centers to 1 to 2 miles in a developing area. The desired minimum
average speed during peak traffic periods is 20 mph in fully developed areas and 30 mph
in developing areas.
The emphasis for Minor Arterial roadways is on mobility rather than on land access. In
urban areas, direct land access is generally restricted to concentrations of
commercial/industrial land uses. Minor Arterials can be broken down further into `A'
Minor and `B' Minor Arterials. `A' Minor Arterials have less emphasis on land access
than `B' Minor Arterials. This allows `A' Minor Arterials to become eligible to compete
for Federal funding. There are currently six `A' Minor Arterial roadways within the City
of Andover:
• Hanson Boulevard NW
• Round Lake Boulevard NW
• Bunker Lake Boulevard NW
• portions of Crosstown Boulevard NW
• portions of 1615' Avenue NW.
• Roanoke Street/71h Avenue
These `A' Minor Arterial Roadways provide critical connections to the Principal Arterial
and Interregional Corridor systems, which include TH 10, TH 65, TH 169 and County
Road 14 (between TH 10 and TH 65).
Currently, there are two `B' Minor Arterial roadways within the City of Andover:
• 1571h Avenue NW (CSAH 20) between County Road 7 and Round Lake
Boulevard NW
• 16151 Avenue NW (CSAR 20) between Round Lake Boulevard NW (CSAR 9)
and Hanson Boulevard NW.
These `B' Minor Arterial roadways provide connections to the surrounding cities of Ham
Lake, Oak Grove, Coon Rapids and Ramsey.
Collector Streets
Collector Streets provide more land access than arterials and connections to arterials,
although not in all cases. As is the case with any roadway system, there will always be
exceptions to the planning guidelines that are used to classify a roadway system.
Collectors serve a dual function of accommodating traffic and provision of more access
to adjacent properties. Mobility and land access are equally important and direct land
access should predominately be to development concentrations. For collector streets that
have 2,499 ADT or less, the street would be considered a minor collector street and direct
land access would be allowed. For collector streets that would have ADT's equal to or
larger than 2,500, the street would be considered a major collector and direct land access
AKdW- 21- 2040 Transportation Plan
would be restricted. Collectors generally connect to minor arterials and serve short trips.
Spacing for collectors ranges from 1/8 to %2 miles in a metro center to %2 to 1 mile in a
developing area.
In order to provide a network consistent with the spacing guidelines for a developing
area; several local streets throughout the City will need to be reclassified as collectors and
some new collector roadways will need to be constructed. This reclassification could
require the reconstruction of the Local Streets to meet the recommended roadway widths
and design features of a Collector Street. Such reconstruction, when warranted due to
street conditions, may or may not provide a wider street section.
Local Streets
The lowest classification of roadways is the local roadway where access is provided with
much less concern for control, but land service is paramount. Spacing for local streets is
as needed to access land uses. Local roadways generally have lower speed limits in urban
areas and normally serve short trips. Local streets will connect with some minor arterials
but generally connect to collectors and other local streets. The development of local
streets will be guided by the location of the existing and proposed minor arterials and
collectors as well as by development and the expansion of local utilities.
Recommendations
Anoka County and the City of Andover made changes to the functional classification
system since the original transportation plan was approved in 2003. A majority of the
changes have occurred due to the construction of new roads; however, some
modifications have occurred due to turn ups to the county and turn downs to the city. The
proposed functional classification system, which includes proposed, non -existing
roadways, is shown in Figure 8.
C. Projected Traffic Volumes
Two sets of traffic volumes have been prepared, which illustrate 2015/2016 and projected
year 2040 volumes for the City of Andover and are shown in Figure 9.

Data Source - MN Dept. of Transportation
Land Use Scenarios
The 2015/2016 Existing volumes are taken directly from counts by the Minnesota
Department of Transportation (MnDOT). MnDOT gathers the raw traffic volumes from
the City and uses minor adjustments, determined by when the count was taken, such as
month and day, to present an Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) volume.
The 2040 projections add 25 years of general traffic growth. Historically, traffic on most
roadways increases over time, with or without specific development on that roadway. The
exception to this is when new roadways or accesses to roadways are constructed. These
new roads draw traffic from surrounding existing roadways and can result in an overall
decrease in daily traffic along some adjacent roads. To account for this general increase
in volume, various factors, such as the State -Aid 20 -year growth factor, historic growth
over the past ten years, roadway location, and importance were examined for the roads in
Andover. The existing and year 2040 projected volumes are shown in Figure 9.
The projected traffic volume information is used to test the ability of the proposed
roadway and land use plan to accommodate the future volumes. For purposes of this
planning analysis, the daily capacity volumes used in the metro areas are as follows:
Two -Lane Roadway with Exclusive Left Tum Lane
- 30 MPH: 10,700 veh/day to 16,100 veh/day
- 45 MPH: 14,300 veh/day to 16,500 veh/day
Four -Lane Roadway with Exclusive Left Turn Lane
- 30 MPH: 22,300 veh/day to 32,200 veh/day
- 45 MPH: 30,200 veh/day to 33,100 veb/day
The planning capacities utilized, put forth by the Highway Capacity Manual 6`h Edition,
will vary due to actual operations along any roadway. Many factors influence the
capacity of a roadway such as number and locations of signals, number of access drives,
roadway alignment, the percentage of trucks on the facility, and other factors. There are
four -lane divided roadways that accommodate 40,000 vehicles per day and two-lane
roadways that have been able to accommodate up to 20,000 vehicles per day. The
capacities used in this analysis are appropriate for planning level reviews.
Most of the roadways in the City should be able to function acceptably as two-lane
facilities as long as good access management is practiced along these arterials and
collector streets.
In most cases, the roadway systems adjacent to the Rural Reserve Area would not need to
be upgraded as long as right and left tum lane improvements are provided to serve the
vehicular demand generated by the increased density considered in the volume
projections. The exception to this is Round Lake Boulevard NW which will need to be a
four -lane roadway under the proposed 2040 volumes. All other roadways in the
immediate area will function acceptably as two-lane roadways including the proposed
east -west and north -south collectors in this area. Turn lane improvements will be needed
to access the Rural Reserve once entrance/egress locations have been identified.
b9UVA* - 25- 2040 Transportation Plan
Review of the volume projections indicates the expansion of existing transportation
routes to provide four -lane roadways would be appropriate for the following facilities in
Andover:
• Hanson Boulevard NW from 139h Avenue NW/Jay Street NW to Crosstown
Boulevard (Divided) (Proposed for reconstruction in 2019)
• Hanson Boulevard NW from Crosstown Boulevard to 161'` Avenue NW
(Undivided)
• Round Lake Boulevard NW from 152"a Lane NW to 168`h Lane NW (Divided)
• Round Lake Boulevard NW from 168h Lane NW to north City Boundary
(Undivided)
• 7 I Avenue NW from South City Boundary to 157`h Avenue NW (Divided)
• 7`h Avenue NW from 157 Ih Avenue NW to North City Boundary (Undivided)
Transportation Analysis Zones
The following tables provide existing and projected Population and Employment
Densities by Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZ) in Andover. Table 1 shows the TAZ based on
the City's zone. This information was prepared using the growth projections of the
Comprehensive Plan.
The most significant population growth by the year 2040 is projected in the eastern side
of the city between Crosstown Boulevard and Andover Boulevard (TAZs 94 and 95). A
significant amount of vacant land is available in this area for residential development
fueling this growth. The most commercial growth will be concentrated in the south-
central portions of the City (TAZs 104 and 99) as well as the Rural Reserve Area (TAZ
84). Figure 10 illustrates the Cities TAZ boundaries.
The interrelationship between land use and transit cannot be overemphasized. Transit
supportive land use patterns, which include directed planning of integrated roadway
systems, careful development for concentrations of rider origins and destinations while
preserving open space and community character, and developing a mix of activities and
uses, is essential to the long-term viability of providing transit as a mobility option for the
residents of Andover.

D. Intersection "Hot Spots"
There are 20 intersections considered potential "hot spot" intersections. These
intersections are listed in Chapter III — Existing Conditions section of this report. The
City of Andover recognizes that the traffic conditions at these and other intersections
change over time and, as such, intersection review and analysis needs to occur
approximately every two years.
The intersections controlled by traffic signals include:
• Bunker Lake Boulevard NW (CSAH 116) and 38' Avenue
• Bunker Lake Boulevard NW (CSAH 116) and 7a` Avenue NW (CSAR 7)
• Bunker Lake Boulevard NW (CSAH 116) and Round Lake Boulevard NW
(CSAH 9)
• Bunker Lake Boulevard NW (CSAH 116) and Crosstown Boulevard NW (CR 18)
• Bunker Lake Boulevard NW (CSAH 116) and Hanson Boulevard (CSAH 78)
Two intersections, Andover Boulevard NW with Prairie Road NW and Crosstown
Boulevard NW with Prairie Road NW are under all -way stop control. The other
intersections are controlled by stop signs on the minor street(s) approaches.
To determine if improvements need to be made at these intersections, the levels of
service (LOS) will need to be calculated. Level of Service is a measure of how well an
intersection is operating. Normally, for intersections within the greater metropolitan area,
LOS D or better is considered a passing grade. The hierarchy of LOS is defined as
follows:
• Level of Service A corresponds to a free flow condition with motorists virtually
unaffected by the intersection control mechanism. For a signalized or an
unsignalized intersection, the average delay per vehicle would be approximately
10 seconds or less.
• Level of Service B represents stable flow with a high degree of freedom, but with
some influence from the intersection control device and the traffic volumes. For a
signalized intersection, the average delay ranges from 10 to 20 seconds. An
unsignalized intersection would have delays ranging from 10 to 15 seconds for
this level.
• Level of Service C depicts a restricted flow which remains stable, but with
significant influence from the intersection control device and the traffic volumes.
The general level of comfort and convenience changes noticeably at this level.
The delay ranges from 20 to 35 seconds for a signalized intersection and from 15
to 25 seconds for an unsignalized intersection at this level.
• Level of Service D corresponds to a high-density flow in which speed and
freedom are significantly restricted. Though traffic flow remains stable,
reductions in comfort and convenience are experienced. The control delay for this
level is 35 to 55 seconds for a signalized intersection and 25 to 35 seconds for an
unsignalized intersection. For most agencies in the Twin Cities area, Level Of
Service D represents the minimum acceptable Level Of Service for regular daily
operations.
9WWi* - 29- 2040 Transportation Plan
• Level of Service E represents the unstable flow of traffic at or near the capacity of
the intersection with poor levels of comfort and convenience. The delay ranges
from 55 to 80 seconds for a signalized intersection and from 35 to 50 seconds for
an unsignalized intersection at this level.
• Level of Service F represents forced flow in which the volume of traffic
approaching the intersection exceeds the volume that can be served.
Characteristics often experienced include long queues, stop -and -go waves, poor
travel times, low comfort and convenience, and increased accident exposure.
Delays over 80 seconds for a signalized intersection and over 50 seconds for an
unsignalized intersection correspond to this Level of Service.
E. Study Corridors
Additional attention and analysis should be completed on roadway corridors on top of the
earlier mentioned intersection analysis. The corridor analysis should focus on the more
heavily used roadways, discussed in the earlier "Land Use Scenarios section, and result in
consistent and efficient roadways which safely distribute traffic throughout the city while
being able to accommodate the projected traffic volumes and contain an access plan that
will serve future development. Close coordination with the county should be pursued to
ensure consistency of roadways within the City of Andover no matter the ownership of
the corridor.
F. Transit Planning
Transportation Plan Objective number three states that the plan will "Provide multi-
modal transportation options ... whenever and wherever feasible and advantageous."
Different types of transit service—fixed route, deviating fixed route, circulator, dial -a -
ride, vanpooling, and others—are appropriate in different markets. Transit Redesign, a
1996 planning report by the Metropolitan Council, identified five different market areas
based on population and employment densities, concentrations of transit -dependent
individuals, and major travel destinations. Transit Redesign also correlated different types
of transit service with each of these five market areas and established performance
standards for evaluating these services. Transit Redesign focused on the geographic areas
within the Transit Taxing District (TTD). A more recent look at these transit areas was
conducted for the 2040 Transportation Policy Pan update. Shifts in transit funding
sources—from its historic property tax base to a dedicated percentage of revenues from
the statewide Motor Vehicle Excise Tax (WET)—created an opportunity to explore
transit service outside of the TTD boundary. These opportunities are discussed later in
this plan. It should be noted that the City consistently works with developers to include
transit options into their developments where feasible.
The Transit Market Index is used to determine what the transit needs are for an area
based on a multitude of factors. According to the Transit Market Areas map
approximately the southern 1/2 of Andover falls within "Market Area 4" with the upper
half falling into the "Market Area 5" category. There is also a small section of Andover,
the southeast corner of Bunker Lake Boulevard and Round Lake Boulevard, which is
defined as "Market Area 3". Table 2 provides a description of these areas and the types of
service appropriate to each.

System Deficiencies
Previous studies have identified the following deficiencies, among others.
• Lack of fixed route services
• Lack of Park -and -Ride facilities
• Lack of Reverse Commute services
Other possible issues, such as the difficulty of access to bus stops or ADA accessibility of
bus stops are not applicable to Andover because of the lack of existing fixed route
service.
Transit Service Improvements
The Metropolitan Council completed a planning document called the "Study of Transit
Service Expansion beyond the Historic Transit Taxing District" (TTD). Eleven
geographic areas comprised of 35 cities and townships were studied outside of the TTD,
one of which was an area combining the cities of Andover and Ramsey. The
Andover/Ramsey study area ranked number one in estimated daily trips with 980 trips
projected to the Minneapolis Central Business District (CBD). However, revising the
geography of the study area to include the cities of Andover, Ham Lake, East Bethel, Oak
Grove, and part of St. Francis, cities feeding into the Highway 10 and Highway 65 travel
shed, would change this number. This revised travel shed should be studied further for its
transit potential.
The type of service proposed is fixed route, morning and afternoon peak, express bus
service into downtown Minneapolis without intermediate stops. This is supported by a
majority of Andover being classified as Market Area 4 in the 2040 TPP update.
While this service would be oriented around Park -and -Ride facilities as its major
ridership generator, it could originate as fixed route feeder -type service with walk-up
boarding at defined stops in higher density residential areas within the City. This would
allow the extension of fixed route services further north into Andover, for example, along
Hanson or Round Lake Boulevards. Whether, and to what distance, these feeder services
are extended into Andover will depend upon the results of more detailed service planning
to establish service frequency and running times to and from downtown Minneapolis.
The viability of these feeder services can be improved by considering the needs of transit
in the overall community development patterns along the corridors and by providing bus
pullouts/stops and trail system connections as part of future roadway improvement
projects.
Due to the cost to the City of Andover for opting into the regional transit system, the City
has elected not to participate.
Transit Facility Improvements
To accommodate the new riders served by the potential express bus services, new Park -
and -Ride lots should be constructed in Andover. Given Andover's location within the
travel shed, and if no new Park -and -Ride facilities are constructed along Highway 10
south of the City, it is likely that at least half of these new riders would need to be
9WOCR*
- 32- 2040 Transportation Plan
accommodated in Park -and -Ride lots within Andover. These riders could be served by
two or three Park -and -Ride locations with 200-300 vehicles per location.
Historically, park and pool activities also increase when dedicated parking facilities are
provided. Therefore, it is likely that the number of vehicles using the Park -and -Ride sites
will be higher than the number of park -and -riders alone. Further, the City could develop
these facilities as park and pool locations now, and add transit service to them in the
future as planning and funding components for transit services are put into place.
Coordination between the City and transit service providers will help to determine
suitable transit facilities and services. As an initial step in reducing single occupant
vehicles and developing transit demand, the City could also promote vanpool programs,
such as those available through Metro Commuter Services.
Park -and -Ride facilities should be located along major commuter routes, such as Round
Lake Boulevard and Hanson Boulevard, in the southern third of the City. If the Bethel
Corridor is developed, or if transit improvements such as bus -only shoulder lanes are
introduced on Highway 65, it may also be advisable to construct a Park -and -Ride along
Bunker Lake Boulevard or Andover Boulevard near the eastern edge of the City. Bus
routing from the Park -and -Ride should offer as many travel time advantages as possible
and should be express service, without intermediate stops, for as much of its length as
possible.
Approximately 3-5 acres of land is desirable at each 200-300 car Park -and -Ride location.
This amount of land area eliminates the need for structured parking, which has
significantly higher costs. For comparison purposes, a surface parking facility with a
transit center building would cost roughly $2 million and $3 million to develop, whereas
a structure parking facility would cost between $5 million and $7.5 million. Setting aside
sufficient land for future Park -and -Rides is clearly desirable from a development cost
standpoint.
The following locations have been discussed as potential Park -and -Ride sites:
• At the Andover Station North Ball Field Facility parking lot.
• The church on the corner of Round Lake and Bunker Lake Boulevards NW.
• Wild Iris Park along Bunker Lake Boulevard NW west of Round Lake Boulevard
NW.
G. Trails Planning
The City of Andover has identified the following goals for a comprehensive city-wide
trail system:
• Non -motorized traffic is separated from motor vehicles on collector and arterial
roadways.
• Links are provided between residential, commercial and park areas.
• Parks are accessible.
• Trails are developed in coordination with all surrounding municipalities as well as
Anoka County.
33- 2040 Transportation Plan
• The trails shall be developed according to American Association of State
Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) standards and/or the MnDOT
Bikeway Facility Design Manual.
Where feasible, it is preferable to develop off-road trails, which provide facilities for both
bicyclists and pedestrians. Trails along rivers and through parks and natural areas are
always highly desirable routes if and when they can be attained, as they provide a more
scenic experience for the user. An off-road trail is one that is physically separated from
motorized vehicular traffic by an open space or barrier either within the roadway right of
way or within an independent right of way. According to MnDOT's Bike Facility Design
Manual, the standard width of a shared -use trail that provides for two-way bicycle traffic
and allows for pedestrian use is ten (10) feet. Where traffic volumes are higher, a more
desirable width for a bike path is 12 feet. The City of Andover has slightly lower
pedestrian trail standard widths of eight (8) feet being typical with ten (10) feet being
preferred where possible.
Adequate room is not always available within the existing road right of way for an off-
road trail. Where it is necessary to develop continuous trail segments, the City is
recommended to work with residential developers and owners of commercial
developments to obtain easements in areas where the roadway right of way is not
adequate for a ten (10) or 12 -foot off-road trail, or in areas where the topography does not
allow the trail to be constructed within the existing right of way. It should be noted that
commercial and industrial developments within the City of Andover are required to
construct or pay for any regional trails located adjacent to their property as identified on
the regional trail plan (Figure 11).
In cases where funding or right of way is limited, an on -road bicycle trail can present a
more economical solution. The provision of an on -road bicycle trail can be accomplished
through the restriping of existing roadways or with extra consideration during the design
of a new roadway. Similar to the functional classification of roadways, bikeway facilities
also have a hierarchy of structure. The following classification helps to define the
different facilities available for on -road bicycle trails:
1. Bicycle lanes — One-way bicycle facilities, which travel in the same direction
as adjacent vehicle traffic. Two-way bicycle lanes located together on the
same side of the roadway tend to promote bike travel against the flow of
vehicle traffic. This type of bicycle lane should only be used for short
connections when necessary.
2. Shared Bus/Bicycle Lanes — The grouping together of bicycles and buses may
be considered if the average speed and traffic volumes are low. Currently,
there are no bus routes or lanes in Andover.

3. Shared Lanes — Shared lanes consist of roadways with no special provisions
for bicyclists. Shared lanes generally require vehicles to cross the center lane
in order to pass bicyclists. These types of lanes are usually not signed and can
be used in residential areas that have low traffic volumes and speeds of less
than 30 -mph.
4. Widened curb, wide outside lanes or shoulders — Located adjacent to the
outermost through traffic lane, experienced bicyclists who are not intimidated
by high traffic volumes and speeds generally use this type of facility.
Shoulders may be utilized by average experience cyclists depending upon the
speed and amount of traffic on the adjacent roadway.
5. Local roadways — Typical urban local or collectors can be used as routes for
bicyclists and pedestrians. Traffic calming can be implemented to reduce the
speed of motor vehicles. However, given the City's stated goals, non -
motorized traffic should be separated from motorized traffic along collectors.
The City trail system includes county regional trails, City multi -use trails, and school -
walk routes. A distinction can also be made between pedestrian/commuter trails and
recreational trails. Pedestrian/commuter trails generally connect residential areas to
commercial, retail or school facilities. Pedestrian/commuter trails tend to follow collector
and arterial roadways, used by motor vehicle commuters, since the users of these trails
seek out the most direct path to their destination. An example of a pedestrian/commuter
trail is the existing trail along the arterial roadway, Bunker Lake Boulevard NW, which
connects several local streets to schools, parks, and businesses.
Conversely, recreational trails tend to be off-road trails, which connect residential areas
to parks, natural areas or greenway corridors. Recreational trails can provide a connection
between parks and neighborhoods, and can meander within parks. Recreational trails
often do not travel a direct route and are often located along rivers and streams or
contained within parks and greenway corridors. The existing trail system along Coon
Creek is a good example of a recreational trail, as it is entirely off-road and follows
scenic Sand and Coon Creek through wooded areas of the City and adjacent cities.
Dividing the trails into these two categories can help to determine from where the
appropriate funding should be derived.
A main goal of the trail plan is to link together the major pedestrian generators in the City
such as schools, parks and commercial development. Additionally, trails can be a vital
link to transit facilities. Some municipal trails are proposed for development. Additional
trails, which should be considered, include municipal trails along existing and proposed
collectors providing east/west and north/south connections throughout the City. The
current lack of east/west trails in the northern half of the City is related to the availability,
or lack thereof, of roadways. Based on the recommended Functional Classification of the
roadways in that section of the City, however, a network of cast/west-traveling roadways
will be developed in the future as Andover's population and roadway system grow. The
construction of trails as part of these roadway projects should be considered as the area
develops further and should be discussed with developers utilizing the land. Trails should
also be developed along a number of sub -collector roadways to provide links between the
AMMW- 36- 2040 Transportation Plan
overall trail system and City parks. Again, Figure I I illustrates the proposed regional
trails network throughout the City.
Trail crossing locations along collectors and arterials should be carefully considered to
maximize trail user safety. Some trails within the City that switch from one side of the
roadway to the other. Examples include trails along Bunker Lake and Hanson Boulevards
NW. Appropriate solutions, be they signed crosswalks, signals, or grade separated
crossings, should be developed for each crossing location. It is worth noting that when a
trail or pedestrian crossing is being considered or requested at any location within the
City, a traffic engineering study at the direction of the City Council may be required to
determine if criteria and warrants are met. Trail or pedestrian crossings should be
concentrated to controlled intersections (traffic signal or stop sign controlled). Trail or
pedestrian crossing located at unexpected entries (such as mid -block crossings) will not
be encouraged or recommended especially on higher speed routes.
School walking routes have been developed in cooperation with the Anoka -Hennepin
school district to handle safety concerns. These concerns have increased due to the
discontinuation of bus service to students living within 2 miles of a school. Many of these
walking routes follow existing trails or sidewalks. Several of the school walking routes
follow the sidewalks or trails along existing arterial and collector roadways. The City
should provide a continuous connection along the arterial and collector roadways to
support walking routes.
The method of funding the City's Regional Trail System includes the City's Trail Fund,
Municipal State Aid Funds, as well as some available grants, which will be discussed
later. Trails not identified on the proposed Regional Trail Plan are considered internal
trails to specific developments. These trails are to be funded by the developer and
included as part of the platting and infrastructure improvements.
H. Rail Crossing Safety
The issue with rail crossings over public streets in Andover is one of delay caused to
vehicular traffic when trains are at the crossings. Flashers and gates currently control all
of the existing crossings.
The delays, whether excessive or not, can be caused by the length of trains, train speeds,
and the number of trains per day. The presence of a switching operation will also add to
the incurred delay. Since rail traffic and length of trains has increased during the past few
years, the problem of vehicular delay to motorists is one experienced in many cities. The
only short-term action that would be advisable is to continue dialogue with the
owners/operators of the rail system to ensure that all is being done to minimize the length
of time crossings are blocked. A long-term solution is the provision of grade -separated
crossings for the present rail/roadway at -grade crossings. Such crossings are, obviously,
solutions that take a long time to implement. However, the approvals process needs to
begin to have a hope of realizing such improvements. Another option is to request that
the railroad move the switching operation to a less populated area.
9� [,fi' - 37- 2040 Transportation Plan
For purposes of the transportation plan, future grade -separated crossings are being
recommended for the Bunker Lake Boulevard NW rail crossing. Bunker Lake Boulevard
NW has year 2040 volume projections up to 27,700 in some sections. Bunker Lake
Boulevard NW is under the jurisdiction of Anoka County so the City should work with
the County for this beneficial improvement.
I. Air
Andover is not directly affected by any of the area's airports. Therefore, no
recommendations are deemed to be necessary with regard to the Transportation Plan.
J. Access Management
The management of access along roadway systems, particularly arterial and collector
roadways is a very important component of maximizing the capacity of a roadway and
decreasing the accident potential along those facilities. Arterial roadways have a function
of accommodating larger volumes of traffic and often at higher speeds. Therefore, access
to such facilities must be limited in order to protect the integrity of the arterial function.
Collector roadways provide a link from local streets to arterial roadways and are designed
to provide more access to local land uses since the volumes and speeds are often less than
arterial roadways.
The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) reports that studies have shown
that as the density of accesses increase, whether public or private, the traffic carrying
capacity of the roadway decreases and the vehicular crash rate increases. Businesses
suffer financially on roadways with poorly designed access. Well-designed access to
commercial properties supports long-term economic vitality.
As with many transportation -related decisions, land use activity and planning are integral
parts of the creation of a safe and efficient roadway system. Land use decisions have a
major impact on the access conditions along the roadway system. Every land use plan
amendment, subdivision, rezoning, conditional use permit, or site plan involves access
and creates a potential impact to the efficiency of the transportation system. Properties
have access rights, and good design will minimize the negative effect on the roadway
system. Access management is a combination of good land use planning and effective
design of access to the property.
The granting of access in the City of Andover is shared by the City and by Anoka
County, with each having the permitting process responsibility for roadways under their
jurisdiction. The City, working with the County, produces access spacing quality to
balance the benefits to the traveling public and developments. To strengthen the goal of
good access management, a set of access spacing guidelines has been prepared which is
intended for use in the access permitting process.
I "Toward An Access Classification System and Spacing Guidelines," Technical Study No. 4, MnDOT, February 1999.
AWOb*
- 38- 2040 Transportation Plan
The guidelines are presented for functionally classified arterial and collector roadways
without reference to the jurisdiction over these roadways. The basic references for the
spacing guidelines are the Anoka County Highway Department Access Spacing
Guidelines which closely references the MnDOT Access Management Manual. However,
additional restrictions have been implemented by the city since the last plan. One addition
to the access spacing guidelines is the allowance of direct driveway access onto City -
owned minor collectors while not onto major collectors. Major collectors, defined as
having daily traffic volumes of 2,500 vehicles or higher, will then hold more of a focus
on mobility, while minor collectors, which carry 2,499 vehicles a day or less, focus more
toward access.
The access guidelines are presented in Table 5, which follows. The stated values are
meant to be "minimum" values. It is also recognized that some existing connections, both
public and private, may not meet these guidelines. Due to various circumstances, access
may need to be granted that cannot adhere to these guidelines. The following table does
not provide guidelines regarding access along Principal Arterials because there are no
roadways functionally classified as Principal Arterials in the City of Andover.

K. Traffic Calming
Traffic calming is a popular way of addressing various traffic aspects on residential
streets. It allows interested citizens to voice their opinions on what they don't like, and to
suggest improvements. Traffic calming can be a viable approach to decreasing volume
and speed problems on residential streets. Residential traffic calming and traditional
neighborhood designs are tools that can be used to help address the complex demands for
more livable communities. The goal of moving traffic efficiently and safely and, at the
same time, providing more "comfort" in our communities is bringing together the many
various elements used when analyzing roadways. This concept of bringing together
various transportation planning and design features is called harmonization.
Available Traffic Calming Techniques
Many residential street traffic -calming techniques being used throughout the United
States to varying degrees of success. This segment of the Transportation Plan will discuss
available techniques and their levels of success.
A wide range of traffic calming techniques have been used over the years. They range
from physical changes to the roadway system to traffic control techniques using signage
and/or pavement markings. A list of the various "traffic calming" techniques is listed
below. A brief description of each technique follows. Graphic illustrations of some of
these techniques are contained with the description.
Physical changes to the street include:
•
Street narrowing
•
Curvilinear street
•
Choker
•
Chicane
•
Traffic circle
•
Protected parking bays
•
Street closure
• Diagonal diverter
• Semi-diverter
• Trumpet island
• Streetscape material or landscape plantings
Traffic control techniques include:
• Police enforcement (Placement of speed trailer)
• Marked crosswalks
• Turn restrictions
• Speed watch program
• One-way streets
• Variable -speed display board
• Vehicle restrictions
9WWi* - 40- 2040 Transportation Plan
Street Changes
Street Narrowine — A street can be narrowed one of two ways — The street width can be
reduced by removing some of the pavement surface, or a psychological narrowing can be
accomplished by using a white pavement edge line that indicates narrower travel lanes.
Street narrowing may minimize or eliminate street parking, compromise bicycle safety,
and affect emergency vehicle response times. On the plus side, street beautification can
accompany street narrowing projects. Pavement markings can play a dual role by also
identifying bike lanes.
Choker — A choker narrows the width of the traveled
lanes. A choker can be constructed at an intersection
or mid -block locations.
Curvilinear Street — The construction or
reconstruction of an existing street can be done in a
curvilinear fashion that, in theory, slows traffic. This
can be done with a curved centerline alignment and a
uniform roadway width or through the use of chokers
and alternative side barriers.
Chicane — Like the choker, the chicane narrows the
street, mid -block, by construction curb bulbs that are
staggered, thus creating a serpentine effect along the
traveled lanes.
Traffic Circle — A traffic circle is a raised island
placed in the intersection of local streets. The island,
approximately 20 feet in diameter, deflects the path of
through traffic around the island, slowing traffic
speeds. These traffic circles must be carefully
designed, so the desired objective of slowing traffic is
achieved without compromising safety.
The traffic circle is different than a traffic roundabout.
Choker
Chicane
Roundabouts, popular in Europe, and becoming
increasingly more popular in the United States are
normally used on higher volume roadways and involve different design elements.
-41- 2040 Transportation Plan
Median Island — A median island, or barrier, is a
method of eliminating through traffic and left turns
to/from one street of an intersection. Routes for traffic
that would be diverted must be carefully analyzed so
the problem being solved isn't merely shifted to another
location. Emergency vehicle access must be carefully
analyzed when considering this geometric technique.
Protected Parkin Bays — Narrowing a street to provide
protected parking bays can slow traffic. The extent to
which traffic is slowed depends on the width of the
lanes that remain for moving traffic.
Median Island
Street Closure — One effective way to reduce traffic volumes on a local street is closing
that street at an intersection, normally with a cul-de-sac. A detailed analysis of where
diverted traffic will go needs to be completed to avoid introducing new and possibly
unwanted traffic on an adjacent street. The effect of such a closure must also be analyzed
from an emergency vehicle access standpoint. While a street study and/or closure can be
accomplished as a single action, it is normally part of a
larger scale, areawide analysis, and control project.
Diagonal Diverter — The diagonal diverter, placed at
the intersection of two local streets, prohibits through
and left -turn traffic. This diverter is normally a raised
barrier that can be landscaped. The diverter can be
successful in reducing "cut -through" traffic in
neighborhoods. As with previous devices, an areawide
treatment is normally the best practice. Care has to be
exercised so emergency vehicle response times are not
significantly affected.
Semi-Diverter — This partial diverter narrows a two-
way street at an intersection so that only one direction of
travel is allowed. The semi-diverter can be designed to
eliminate either entering or exiting traffic.
Trumpet Island (right tum diverter) — This raised island,
placed on any leg of an intersection, allows for right
turns in/out for a particular roadway. A trumpet island is
normally used in situations where left turns and through
traffic are safety concerns. Traffic volumes are usually
reduced with this device.
i
Serol-lllverter
WIN mim
!!1 ®m�r11O
Trumpet Island
Streetscave Material or Landscape Plantings — This is
another beautification option that could affect traffic speed. The design concept/type
provides the illusion that the street is narrower, causing drivers to slow down.
&7P - 42- 2040 Transportation Plan
Traffic Control Techniques
Police Enforcement — Increasing the use of radar to curb speeding can be an effective
control tool — if it is administered consistently. However, radar can be costly, and
assigning officers to this lower -priority task is often difficult. Though productive for the
short-term, sporadic enforcement, or removing enforcement after a period of time, will
result in speeds creeping back up over time.
One -Way Streets — Converting a pair or series of streets to one-way operations has safety
benefits and causes a shift in traffic volumes. One-way pairs, alternating one -ways, or
divergent/convergent one -ways create benefits, but can be a problem for certain local
users as they can cause increased driving distances to arrive at their residences. Detailed
analyses should be conducted before this concept is implemented.
Stop Signs — Stop signs should only be installed where warranted and as the result of an
engineering analysis. Stop signs are not recommended for use as a speed control device.
Removing stop signs, when warranted as part of an engineering study, can be as sensitive
as installing one.
Marked Crosswalks — Painted crosswalks direct pedestrians to a crossing location that is
judged safe for them and, equally important, visible to vehicular traffic. Crosswalks only
need to be painted where pedestrian traffic is high, such as near parks and schools.
Variable Speed Display Board — The speed display unit, or trailer, uses radar to record
and display a motorist's speed, along with the posted limit. Motorists do respond to this
technique, but results may be short-term with speeds creeping back up over time. This
use of the speed display unit should be repeated periodically to gain maximum
effectiveness. Turn Restrictions — Turn Restrictions (no left turn, no right turn) along
major streets at residential street intersections can be an effective technique for reducing
neighborhood "cut -through" traffic. Such turn restrictions are usually posted for the peak
traffic hours. Since this is not a physical deterrent, there are usually some, albeit minimal,
violations.
Vehicle Restrictions — Restricting vehicles, namely trucks, from certain streets is often
the result of citizen complaints. Trucks are important to the economic viability of the
area. The City has designated streets upon which trucks are allowed daily travel.
Explaining the impetus behind the truck route layout may satisfy a citizen's concerns
when complaints are lodged.
Speed Alert/Watch Programs — This program allows residents to become a part of the
solution. Under this program, citizens are trained to operate radar units by law
enforcement personnel. One person runs the radar unit while another records speed and
vehicle information. Speeders are then sent letters by the police department pointing out
their recorded speed and asking them to stow down. In many cases, the speeders are area
residents.

Effectiveness of Traffic Calming Techniques
Traffic calming techniques are being used on residential streets throughout Minnesota
and the United States with varying success. In some cases, projects that had been
installed have been subsequently removed, often at the request of the same people who
requested the calming technique in the first place. Much research is still needed to
determine the expected effects of these various control and geometric elements. Most
research on the effects of these residential street -calming efforts has been project specific.
Data and research on this topic are still in its infancy.
Some of the benefits anticipated for a specific project are based on engineering judgment,
but need to be verified. This will occur as more research is undertaken. However, some
case studies have identified benefits to certain projects, often reported as an
"enhancement to the street environment." These statements can be interpreted to mean
residents are experiencing a feeling of improved safety, street "livability," and an overall
improvement in their perceived quality of life.
There have been efforts, in research and project reporting studies, to indicate the types of
improvements that can be expected when certain traffic calming techniques are used.
These expectations are based on first-hand experience and subjective analysis.
In 1996 — 1997, the Minnesota Department of Transportation and the Minnesota Local
Road Research Board sponsored a research study' that examined the extent of traffic
calming activity in Minnesota and the degree of actual and perceived success of such
projects. Effectiveness was rated as:
• Highly Effective
• Effective
• Slightly Effective
• Uncertain of Effectiveness
• Not Effective
The study rated the effect of the project type on four different elements:
• Vehicle Speeds
• Traffic Volumes
• Street Safety
• Enhancing Perceived Street Environment

A document prepared in 1994 by the North Central Section of the Institute of
Transportation Engineers' (NCITE) contained an evaluation of the effects of various
traffic engineering and traffic calming techniques. The units of measure were weighed
against a variety of elements and rated for their effect — low, mid or high. The
engineering/calming techniques were called a "tool box." Table 7 on the following page

V. REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION INITIATIVES
Northstar Corridor and Bethel Corridor, Commuter Rail
Overpasses and underpasses.for rail lines
The Northstar Corridor is a 40 -mile transportation corridor, which runs along Hwy 10
and Hwy 47 from Minneapolis to Big Lake. The Northstar Corridor was identified by
Mri and is included in the Metropolitan Council's Master Regional Transit Plan as a
transit investment around the region. Northstar Commuter Rail Stations in the Northeast
suburbs include Elk River (east of TH 169 and north of TH 10), Anoka (north of TH 10
between TH 47 and TH 288) and Coon Rapids (at the Foley Park -and -Ride and along
Northdale Boulevard south of Riverdale Commons). In 2016, the Northstar provided
more than 711,000 rides at rates ranging from six (6) dollars in Big Lake to three (3)
dollars in Fridley during the week and $5.25 in Big Lake to $2.50 in Fridley on the
weekend.

The Bethel corridor is a tentative commuter rail corridor, which runs north/south from the
City of Bethel to Coon Rapids where it ties into the Northstar corridor. A study
performed by MnDOT on the feasibility of commuter rail corridors in the Twin Cities
found the Bethel Corridor to be feasible as a tier two corridor, which means that it could
support potential commuter rail service. It is anticipated that tier two corridors will be
implemented after 2020. The City of Andover is recommended consider the potential for
this rail line as the City continues to develop. This may include selecting locations with
urban housing, community centers, etc. near the existing rail line. If the existing rail line
becomes the location for the future commuter rail corridor, the infrastructure should
complement the use of that facility. At this point, the most appropriate location for a rail
station appears to be near the BNSF railway and Bunker Lake Boulevard NW
intersection in the southwest quadrant, which is currently owned by Anoka County.
The Northstar Corridor and the proposed Bethel Corridor are part of a commuter rail
system that will be integrated with other forms of transportation such as LRT, bus transit,
bicycles, and pedestrians. Due to the construction of these commuter rail lines, the City
of Andover may experience an increase in bus transit, which may require the construction
of new Park -and -Rides within the City. Also, increased demand for pedestrian and
AMWb* - 49- 2040 Transportation Plan
bicycle transit may occur, requiring the construction of more trails, walkways, and
pedestrian provisions through the City.
With the Northstar Commuter Rail Corridor constructed, Anoka County is providing free
shuttle services between the Fridley Northstar Commuter Rail station and large
employers within two miles of the station.
Reeional Trails
Existing regional trails through the City of Andover include the Bunker Hills Regional
Trail, which travels through Bunker Hills Regional Park in the SE comer of Andover and
the Central Anoka County Regional Trail, which travels east/west through the southern
section of the City of Andover. The Rum River Regional Trail is also proposed by Anoka
County to travel north/south along County Road 7 through the City. The Coon Creek
Trail travels east/west along Coon Creek and connects to the Bunker Hills Regional Trail.
Additions to both of these regional trails are currently proposed by Anoka County. With
the construction of regional trails comes Andover's opportunity to connect existing
municipal trails to the larger system.
Mississippi River Crossine
MnDOT is currently studying the existing Mississippi River Crossings and has
determined that both the Hwy 101 and the Hwy 169 crossings are congested. Various
locations are being investigated for an additional river crossing. MnDOT's goal is to have
the additional river crossing constructed sometime after 2018. One location being
considered includes a crossing from the City of Ramsey to the City of Dayton. Due to the
construction of this new river crossing, the City of Andover could expect to see more
commuters heading west to cross the river and then south into Minneapolis and St. Paul.
MnDOT is currently looking to preserve the right-of-way for this project.
As part of this project, it is anticipated that MnDOT will need to address how this
crossing connects to the transportation system to the north. The crossing could potentially
connect to TH 169 or TH 47 to the north. This may provide a TH 169 "bypass" around
Elk River or a realignment of TH 47 away from Anoka. Anoka County will also be
reviewing the function of CSAH 22 and how it relates to the new river crossing as well as
its function as an east/west connection for the northern Minneapolis/St. Paul Metro Area.
TH 47 (Preservation Route)
A preservation route is a section of Trunk Highway (TH) that has been categorized as
MnDOT's highest investment priority. This category involves the repair and replacement
of pavement and bridges, and repair of miscellaneous infrastructure. Funding is provided
to preserve the existing infrastructure and not for other improvements even though they
may be warranted. MnDOT has categorized TH 47 as a preservation route. TH 47 was
recently reconstructed through the City or Ramsey as late as 2016. MnDOT recognizes
the deficiencies on TH 47 within the City of Anoka. However, there are no plans for any
major improvements in the near future. MnDOT and Anoka County will review the
needed improvements and future alignment of TH 47 as discussions continue concerning
the potential tum back of the roadway to Anoka County.
AM&b*
- 50- 2040 Transportation Plan
CSAH 14 (Management Route)
A Management Route is MnDOT's second highest investment priority category. This
type of route involves preservation strategies, transportation system management, access
management, jurisdictional reassignment and corridor preservation. As the first step in
developing an Access Management Plan, Anoka County prepared an Access
Management Study for CSAH 14 between TH 10 and 1-3 5W. It was determined that
CSAH 14 is the best east/west corridor through southern Anoka County. However, most
trips on CSAH 14 were short as travelers used the corridor to access north/south
roadways. It was also discovered that the number of access points along this corridor of
CSAH 14 is more than double the MnDOT guideline for an urban principal arterial
facility.
Safety issues were identified as well as problems with congestion. Results of the study
indicated that widening the corridor and making intersection improvements would
minimize future traffic delays and congestion. To accomplish this goal, it was
recommended this segment of CSAH 14 be reconstructed as a four -lane divided urban
facility with left and right tum lanes. This would restrict access points and thereby reduce
the number of conflicts.
Since MnDOT considers CSAH 14 a management corridor, improvements such as tum
lanes, frontage roads, signal timing and access changes may receive state and regional
funding. The mentioned upgrades were completed Fall 2016, and CSAH 14 has returned
to being fully operational.
TH 65 (Management Route)
TH 65 is a MnDOT Management Route and may receive state and regional funding for
improvements such as turn lanes, signal timing, and access closures or modifications.
MnDOT will be providing signal system upgrades at Hwy 65 at 105`, Avenue in Blaine.
MnDOT, Anoka County, and Blaine will continue to discuss the future of TH 65. These
discussions include defining potential funding sources for future improvements.
Currently, TH 65 is proposed to be a 6 -lane divided highway from north of TH 10 to
either CSAH 14 or Ham Lake.
MnDOT completed a Traffic Operations Study in 2000 for TH 65 from 53rd Avenue to
245th Avenue within Anoka County. Computer modeling was completed for
intersections along this segment of TH 65. It was found that 22 intersections along the
study corridor would be operating at unacceptable levels in 2020 if only the programmed
improvements were performed on TH 65. The recommendations in the traffic operations
study include access eliminations to increase intersection spacing, dedicated turn lanes to
increase the cross street capacity, and additional through lanes in some areas to increase
the intersection capacity. Some of these improvements are proposed for construction with
the reduction of conflict intersections from Bunker Lake Boulevard to 245" Avenue by
lengthening left turn lanes at intersections between 85" Avenue, Blaine Road, and Sims
Road. This work is projected to begin in 2018.
AM&b* - 51- 2040 Transportation Plan
CSAH 116 (Management Route)
CSAH 116 received Surface Transportation Program (STP) funding in 2011. These
resources were used to widen and reconstruct the roadway between Crane Street and
Jefferson Street, roughly 2.3 miles of total roadway. Additional roadway upgrades
included in this project were:
• Intersection upgrades including turn lane additions and shoulder upgrades.
• Pedestrian facility upgrades through trail construction.
• Bus/truck pull-out lanes at the BNSF railroad crossing.
The above-mentioned construction was started in April 2017 and substantially completed
November 2017.
TH 10 (Interregional Corridor)
An Interregional Corridor (IRC) is described as a route that connects regional trade
centers within Minnesota. These corridors are only two percent of all roadway miles in
the state. However they account for one-third of all vehicle miles traveled. These
corridors receive priority for management investment funds as well as improvement and
expansion funding. TH 10 is categorized as a management investment, but is also part of
the Interregional Corridor System and is eligible for IRC funds.
In August 2014, MnDOT completed an Access Planning Study for TH 10 from the
Anoka/Sherbume County line to the Rum River. The studies goals were to:
• Identify high -benefit, lower-cost improvements along Highway 10.
• Recommend improvements at a scale that can be funded and maintained.
• Prioritize investment recommendations for incremental implementation.
From these goals, 20 smaller projects were determined grouped into current, immediate,
short-term, mid-term, and opportunity -driven priorities. The current priority was the
reconstruction of the Highway 10 and Armstrong Boulevard intersection, which has been
completed. Immediate priorities focused on increasing safety and mobility, such as the
removal of the Fairoak Avenue traffic signal, removal of nearly 40 access points, and
greater utilization of existing grade separation of Highway 10. The short-term priorities
are more expensive projects which require more time to mature. The mid-term priorities
would remove the Ramsey Boulevard and Sunfish Lake Boulevard traffic signals.
Finally, the opportunity -driven priorities are projects that do not have an immediate need
for construction but would provide additional grade separation and access closures
increasing mobility along Highway 10.
In May 2002, MnDOT completed a Management Study/Plan for TH 10 from TH 24 in
Clear Lake to I -35W in Mounds View and Arden Hills. Geometric and capacity
deficiencies were studied along the length of the corridor. Segments through Anoka and
Ramsey were among the segments with the greatest number of deficiencies. Congestion
during peak hours was determined to stretch from Coon Rapids to Elk River. A major
concern is the number of existing and potential signalized intersections along the
corridor. Identified alternatives including increasing the number of through lanes along
TH 10 or increasing the efficiency of the existing through lanes by converting from an
Ahm-6ft*
- 52- 2040 Transportation Plan
expressway to a freeway design. A freeway design would require the elimination of local
road intersections and access points and the conversion of at -grade signalized
intersections to grade -separated interchanges.
The study included the following alternatives for the Anoka County area:
Elk River: Convert the existing 4 -lane arterial to a 6 -lane arterial or a 4 or 6 -lane
freeway or construct a 4 -lane freeway bypass north of the City.
Ramsev: Convert the existing 4 -lane expressway to either a 6 -lane expressway or a 4
or 6 -lane freeway.
Anoka: Convert the existing 4 -lane expressway to a 4 or 6 -lane freeway.
Coon Rapids: Widen the present 4 -lane freeway to a 6 or 8 -lane freeway.
This list of alternatives was evaluated, and a list of potential projects was developed.
Portions relevant to the Andover/Anoka County area include a project in Ramsey
converting TH 10 from TH 169 to Sunfish Lake Boulevard to a 6 -lane freeway, and a
project in Anoka converting TH 10 from Sunfish Lake Boulevard to Round Lake
Boulevard to a 6 -lane freeway. It was also recommended that TH 10 from Round Lake
Boulevard south to I -35W be converted to an 8 -lane freeway as part of two different
projects. Improvements to this corridor need to consider the Northstar Commuter Rail
and related bus transit activities and facilities.
Some intersection/interchange improvements have been started and are in various stages
of completion. The interchange at Round Lake Boulevard and Hanson Boulevard has
been completed.
TH 169 (Interre¢ional Corridor)
TH 169 has been classified by MnDOT as an interregional corridor. This corridor is
eligible to receive priority for management investment funds as well as improvement and
expansion funding. MnDOT has also identified this corridor as an at -risk, high-priority
interregional corridor. As of October 2017, the following work has been completed:
• Replacing the Highway 169 bridge over Nine Mile Creek.
• Reconstruction of more than six (6) miles of pavement between Highway 55 and
Highway 62.
• Construction of acceleration and deceleration lanes.
• Removal of access to and from southbound Highway 169 at 161i Street.
• Repairing noise walls and concrete barriers.
• Improving pedestrian accessibility.
MnDOT intends to preserve Right -of -Way for the widening of TH 169 between I-94 and
109th Avenue after developing a preliminary design map. According to the Transit 2020
Master Plan, bus -only shoulders are proposed for this corridor and should be incorporated
into any new designs for TH 169. MnDOT will continue to analyze the project capacity
deficiencies.
-53- 2040 Transportation Plan
Roadway Turnbacks
Two potential regional roadway tumbacks are being discussed by MnDOT and Anoka
County:
• TH 47 from MnDOT to Anoka County
• East/West CSAH 22 from Anoka County to MnDOT
A change in "ownership" of a roadway can affect funding and project priority. A
roadway that may not have been a high priority to MnDOT may be more important to
Anoka County and could receive more attention under the jurisdiction of the County.
Also, the funding that can be provided for maintenance and construction will change
along with the jurisdictional change.
The Anoka County 2040 Transportation plan shows proposed changes to the County
Highway System. The roadways that may be turned back to the City of Andover in the
future are:
• County Road 18 (Crosstown Boulevard) (approximately 2.07 miles)
o From Crosstown Drive (County Road 18 extension) to Hanson Boulevard
(CSAR 78)
• County Road 58 (Old Valley Drive/Tulip Street NW) (approximately 3.15 miles)
o From 7th Avenue (CSAH 7) to 181st Avenue (County Road 58)
• County Road 58 (181st Avenue) (approximately 0.49 miles)
o From Tulip Street NW (County Road 58) to Round Lake Boulevard (CSAH 9)
• County Road 158 (165th Avenue) (approximately 0.66 miles)
o From 7th Avenue (CSAH 7) to Valley Drive (County Road 58)
• CSAH 20 (16151 Avenue) (approximately 1.00 miles)
o From Round Lake Boulevard (CSAH 9) to Verdin Street (County Road 59)
• CSAH 18 (Crosstown Boulevard) (approximately 1.71 miles)
o From 161'` Avenue (CSAH 20) to Andover -Ham Lake City Line
• County Road 16 (Andover Boulevard) (approximately 1.99 miles)
o From Hanson Boulevard (CSAH 78) to Andover -Ham Lake City Line
-54- 2040 Transportation Plan
VI. ROADWAY SYSTEMS PLAN
A. Transportation Funding
There are several funding alternatives available to Andover for improvements to the
transportation system. Below is a list of funding sources that can be utilized for various
types of improvements:
• Federal Aid funding
o Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBG)
o Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ)
o Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)
o National Highway Performance Program (NHPP)
• Federal Demonstration Funding for High Priority Projects (HPP)
• Transportation Revolving Loan Fund (TRLF)
• County State Aid Highway (CSAH) funding
• Municipal State Aid Street (MSAS) funding
• State and Federal Bridge funding
• Minnesota Railroad -Highway Grade Crossing Safety Improvement Program
• State DNR Grants
o Federal Recreational Trail Grant Program
o Regional Trail Grant Program
o Outdoor Recreational Grant Program
o Local Trail Connections Grant Program
• Legislative Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCCMR)
• Turnback funding
• County funding
• City funding
Each of these funding sources has a unique set of requirements and criteria that must be
met to receive funding; in some cases, this includes successfully competing for limited
funding. There are also rules that apply to the use of the funding and for what the funding
can be used. Below is a more detailed description of the funding sources, how to receive
the funds and how the funds can be used.
Federal Aid Fundin¢
States receive federal funding for highways through the Fixing America's Surface
Transportation Act (FAST Act) of the Federal Highway Trust Fund. Federal Highway
Trust Fund revenue is generated from the federal gas tax, taxes on truck sales, use and
tires, and from the General Trust Fund. Currently, each state receives a minimum amount
of federal aid equal to 90% of the amount it contributes in taxes.
-55- 2040 Transportation Plan
The Federal Aid or FAST Act funds are administered through the Minnesota Department
of Transportation (MnDOT) with guidance provided through formulas determined by the
federal government as well as the Transportation Advisory Board of the Metropolitan
Council of the Twin Cities. Municipalities can compete for a portion of the federal
funding that is available to the state. The federal funding usually covers 80% of the
construction costs of a project. The other 20% must come from other funding sources.
These sources could include other funds listed in this plan. The federal categories and an
explanation are provided below:
Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STSG)
The FAST Act converted the Surface Transportation Program (STP) funding to
the Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBG). The funding is
available for roadway construction and reconstruction, capacity projects, safety
projects, bikeway or walkway components of projects, transit projects, Park -and -
Ride facilities, and traffic management projects. With the transfer to the FAST
Act, funds may now also be used to create and operate State offices to help
design, implement, and oversee public-private partnerships. STBG funding is the
most flexible program with respect to eligibilities among all Federal -aid highway
programs.
Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ)
CMAQ provides flexible funding to state and local governments for transportation
projects and programs to help meet the requirements of the Clean Air Act of
1990. In general, eligible projects provide some type of reduction in toxic
emissions. These include alternative fuel vehicles purchases, traffic flow
improvements, transit projects, rideshare activities and telecommuting. In the
FAST Act, additional expansion of fund uses includes eligibility for the
technology of non -road vehicles used in port -related freight operations and
vehicle to infrastructure communication equipment. CMAQ funding can be used
in various fashions to defer the costs of implementing these strategies. In
Minnesota, the funds are administered by the Transportation Advisory Board.
Hi hhwway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)
HSIP provides funding for safety projects consistent with the States strategic
highway safety plan with the purpose of significantly reducing fatalities and
serious injuries on public roadways. Eligible projects include correction and
improvements of hazardous roads, highway safety improvements, installation of
the vehicle to infrastructure communication equipment, pedestrian hybrid
beacons, and roadway projects providing pedestrian and motorist separation.
National Highway Per ormance Program (NHPP)
The National Highway Performance Program provides funding for the
improvement and upkeep of the National Highway System (NHS) as well as
construction of new facilities on the NHS. The goal of the NHPP is to ensure
federal funds are invested in highway construction that supports the progress
towards performance targets outlined in the State's asset management plan for the
9W6_r&* - 56- 2040 Transportation Plan
NHS. Eligible activities include installation of vehicle -to -infrastructure
communication equipment, reconstruction, rehabilitation, and preservation of a
non -NHS bridge (when NHS bridge conditions are already satisfied), and projects
reducing the risk of failure of critical NHS infrastructure.
Federal Demonstradon Funding for High Priority Proiects (HPP)
While Federal funding is available through the FAST Act, other federal funding may be
available for specific high priority projects. In order to obtain this special funding, a
project must have technical merit, as well as political backing. A coalition may be formed
from supporting agencies and elected officials to organize an effort to bring funding to a
project. A special Bill passed by Congress may contain funding directly applied to a
specific project. By forming a coalition and working with your congressman and other
elected officials, the City may be able to bring substantial transportation funding to a
regionally significant transportation project.
Transportation Revolving Loan Fund (TRLF)
The federal government established a State Infrastructure Bank (SIB) program in 1995
through the National Highway System Designation Act. A SIB is a state or multi -state
fund that can be used by eligible borrowers to finance eligible transportation projects.
Minnesota's SIB, known as the Transportation Revolving Loan Fund (TRLF), was
established in 1997. The TRLF operates much like a commercial bank providing low-
interest loans to cities, counties, and other governmental entities for eligible
transportation projects. When the loans are repaid, the funds are returned to the TRLF
and used to finance additional transportation projects.
The TRLF is an innovative finance tool that can be used to finance transportation projects
that may not get financed through traditional transportation funding methods. The
TRLF's benefits include:
• Faster project completion, resulting in cost -savings and improved transportation
systems.
• A variety of low-cost financing options.
• The ability to fund additional projects as loans are repaid.
• The attraction of new types of dollars for transportation use.
• The generation of additional dollars for transportation purposes through
leveraging.
Eligible projects include, but are not limited to, pre -design studies; acquisition of right-
of-way; road and bridge maintenance, repair, improvement, or construction; enhancement
items; rail safety projects; transit capital purchases and leases; and drainage structures,
signs guardrails, and protective structures used in connection with these projects.
An eligible borrower's possible sources of TRLF loan repayment include, but are not
limited to, special assessments, property tax levies, tax increment financing, local
government option sales taxes, future federal funds, future state funds, and customer fees
from revenue -generating projects such as parking ramps and intermodal terminals.
A&M - 57- 2040 Transportation Plan
County State Aid Highway (CSAH) funding
Anoka County receives a State Aid funding allocation each year for maintenance and
construction of the County's State Aid Highway (CSAH) system. In 2017 Anoka County
is forecasted to receive approximately $19.5 million in State Aid funding. Approximately
$7.8 million is allocated for maintenance of the CSAH system, and $11.7 million is
allocated for construction funding. The County's State Aid funding can only be used for
improvements made to the CSAH system. The State Aid funds can be used for
construction, engineering, and right of way costs. The County can also borrow from its
future State Aid allocation interest-free.
Municipal State Aid Street (MSAS) funding
The City of Andover receives a State Aid funding allocation each year for maintenance
and construction of the City's Municipal State Aid Street (MSAS) System. In 2017
Andover is forecast to receive $1.49 million in State Aid funding. The City may
appropriate 25% to 35% of this funding to general maintenance with the remaining
allotment being used for construction. The City's State Aid funds can be used for
construction improvements to a Municipal State Aid Street (which include trails along the
route), County State Aid Highway or State Trunk Highway. The State Aid funds can also
be used for engineering costs and right of way costs.
The City can also borrow from its future State Aid allocation interest-free. The City can
borrow up to five times the municipalities' last construction allotment or $4 million,
whichever is less. The State Aid for Local Transportation Office is continuously
accepting loan applications.
State and Federal Bridge funding
Federal Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program (HBRRP) funds,
Town Bridge funds and Minnesota State Transportation Funds (bond funds) are available
to fund bridge replacement projects. These funds are available to municipalities for
bridge projects and include removal of abandoned bridges to the reconstruction of
deficient structures. For bridges on the state aide system, 50 percent of the costs can be
paid from the State Transportation Fund. Higher participation shares may be approved if
there is a financial need.
Minnesota Railroad -Highway Grade Crossing Safety Improvement Program
The mission of the Minnesota Railroad -Highway Grade Crossing Safety Improvement
Program is to save lives in locations with at -grade crossings. Under this program, active
warning devices have been installed at more than 1,500 of the Minnesota grade crossings.
Federal funds for railroad -highway grade crossing safety projects are available under the
Fast Act with the Railway -Highway Crossing Program. MnDOT, local road authorities,
railroads, and local planning agencies work together to identify railroad -highway grade
crossing safety projects. The eight ATPS integrate projects into area -wide plans.
MnDOT's Office of Freight, Railroads and Waterways helps the ATPS to assess grade
crossing safety investment needs.
bb- 58- 2040 Transportation Plan
Types of projects eligible under the Minnesota Railroad -Highway Grade Crossing Safety
Program include signal and signal upgrade, signs and pavement markings, lighting,
crossing closures and roadway relocations, sight condition improvements, crossing
alignments, grade improvements, and grade separations.
State DNR Grants
The DNR has several grants available through their general, trail and water recreation
programs. These grants may provide a local match to federal funding or a contribution to
a project with other funding sources. The following programs are available to the City of
Andover for City or County trails:
Federal Recreational Trail Grant Program
This program is available for the development, reconstruction or
maintenance/restoration of either motorized or non -motorized trails. A unit of
government must sponsor the project. The minimum grant request is $1,000, and
the maximum grant award is $150,000. Purchases of above $75,000 require a
50% match while those below $75,000 require a 25% match. Federal funds can be
used as a match in some circumstances. The application for this program is due
annually on February 28th.
Regional Trail Grant Program
This program is intended to support the development of regionally significant
trails. Demonstration of local support and a 20 -year commitment from the trail
developer are requirements of this trail program. Cities, counties, and townships
are eligible to apply for the funding. Grants are reimbursement based up to 75%
of the eligible cost. The minimum grant request is $5,000 with a maximum grant
reward of $250,000. This match cannot include any other state funds. The
application for this program is due annually on March 31.
Outdoor Recreational Grant Program
This program is intended to increase and enhance outdoor recreation facilities.
Eligible projects include park acquisition and/or development/redevelopment; this
includes among others, picnic shelters, playgrounds, athletic facilities, trails, boat
accesses, fishing piers, swimming beaches, and campgrounds. Cities, counties,
and townships are eligible to apply for the funding. Grants are reimbursed up to
50% of the total eligible cost with a maximum grant award of $150,000. The
application for this program is due annually on March 31st.
Local Trail Connections Grant Pro ram
This program is intended to promote relatively short trail connections between
where people live and desirable locations, not to develop significant new trails.
Demonstration of local support and a 20 -year commitment from the trail
developer are requirements of this trail program. Cities, counties, and townships
are eligible to apply for the funding. Priority is given to projects with residential
connections to state and regional facilities. The minimum grant request is $5,000
with a maximum grant amount of $150,000. Grants are reimbursement up to 75%
of the total eligible costs with the remaining 25% provided by a non -state cash
match. The application for this program is due annually on March 31st
9WWR* - 59- 2040 Transportation Plan
Legislative Citizens Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCCMR)
The LCCMR makes funding recommendations to the Minnesota Legislature each year
for special natural resource projects. These projects help maintain and enhance
Minnesota's natural resources. These projects include recreational parks, trails and
history; fish and wildlife habitat; water resources; and environmental education. The
LCCMR process is open to all provided there is a demonstrated public benefit. Recipients
include state agencies, private non -profits, academic institutions, local government units,
the federal government, tribal governments and private corporations.
Proposals are due around May of each year. The LCCMR processes these proposals for
presentation to the Legislature the following January. If selected, funding becomes
available the following July and is available for a two-year period.
Turnback Funding
When a jurisdictional transfer occurs, the agency releasing the roadway usually provides
funding for necessary upgrades prior to releasing the roadway. These funds may include
State Aid funds or special tumback funding designated by that agency for turnback
purposes.
County Fundin¢
Anoka County funding is provided by the County to maintain and construct the County
Road system. These funds are utilized for roadways not on the CSAH system as well as
some improvements made to County State Aid Highways.
City Funding
The City of Andover allocates City funding for maintenance and construction of its
roadways. This funding, along with the MSAS funds received from the State provide the
City with its yearly allocation for roadway maintenance and construction. Also, there are
certain intersection improvements on City streets and County roads that may be the
responsibility of the property owners and/or developers/subdividers. These requirements
are as follows:
1. The subdivider shall be required to pay a proportionate share of all costs
associated with required intersection improvements along County roads and City
streets when new developments trigger the need for upgrades (i.e., right and left
turn lanes, bypass lanes and deceleration lanes).
2. The subdivider shall make the required improvements as a part of the street
improvements for the new development as identified in the preliminary plat
approval.
3. The City Council may elect to construct such improvements as an assessment
project in which the subdivider shall accept an assessment for a proportionate
share of the improvements as identified in the preliminary plat approval.
-60- 2040 Transportation Plan
B. Short-term/Long-term Planning
This Transportation Plan provides the City with a guide for future improvements to the
overall City transportation system. Specific recommendations have been made regarding
various aspects of the system. Many factors outside of this Transportation Plan will affect
what those short-range projects will be. In fact, the primary factor is the development or
redevelopment that will occur within the City.
As development occurs, the City will require certain elements of the Transportation
system to be provided as part of that development. It is at this time that many projects
recommended within the Transportation Plan will be implemented. By implementing this
plan, the City establishes the requirements of transportation projects whenever they occur
in the future. As the City updates its Capital Improvement Plan, this plan can be used as
one tool to prioritize transportation improvements. However, many other factors will
contribute to the CIP as well, including maintenance needs, etc.
This plan will also assist the City with projects outside of their jurisdiction. By providing
recommendations for Hanson Boulevard and Crosstown Boulevard the City is able to let
the County know what the desire and expectations are for future improvements. The
County can use this when programming funding for future improvements along the
county roads. It is anticipated that Anoka County will use this plan as a guide when
developing its short and long-range transportation improvement plan.
-61- 2040 Transportation Plan
VI. MANAGING FREIGHT MOVEMENT
The safe and efficient movement of goods is an integral part of the health and livability of
a community for both businesses and homeowners. With a majority of the goods being
delivered throughout the city and to various land uses through truck traffic, it is important
to ensure the infrastructure of Andover can support these larger freight vehicles and their
corresponding movement without causing undue burden to passenger vehicles,
pedestrians, and bicyclists. The city will work to accommodate freight infrastructure
without negatively impacting surrounding land uses. The first step in creating this
efficient freight movement is through defined and dedicated freight routes through the
city. These dedicated routes prevent heavy truck traffic from impacting local roadways
and allows for focused improvements on these freight routes to improve safety and
infrastructure needed to accommodate these heavy vehicles.
The City should work with potential developments, which expect heavier volumes of
truck traffic for freight movements, to ensure proper planning has been put forth with
respect for these vehicles. This may include but is not limited to:
• Site plans, which propose separated and internal accesses and/or truck routes to
loading dock areas.
• Storage, sufficient to accommodate freight vehicles without impacting pedestrians
and roadway traffic and infrastructure.
• Limiting freight deliveries and pick-ups outside of the roadway's peak periods.
• Upgrading pavement depths to accommodate the heavier truck traffic.
The existing railroad line provides additional freight movement options and can be used
to help relieve freight traffic from the local roadways for regional freight movements.
VII. PUBLIC INPUT PROCESS
To complete and implement a City-wide transportation plan, it is critical that the various
agencies, business owners, citizens and other affected parties participate in planning
activities. The City will continue to work with these entities to improve the City
Transportation System.
-62- 2040 Transportation Plan
VIII. MISCELLANEOUS TRANSPORTATION RELATED
RECOMMENDATIONS
The previous chapters discussed a variety of transportation system elements. During the
development of the plan, certain recommendations were brought forth that should be
adopted by the City of Andover to help ensure continuing development of an up-to-date
plan and evaluation of various traffic and land use related conditions.
• The Transportation Plan should be reviewed and updated every five (5) to no
more than ten (10) years in order to better plan for changing conditions.
• The City should, on a five (5) year time frame, conduct a review of the safety and
traffic operations conditions of a list of "hot spot" intersections. That list will
probably change as the City continues to grow.
• The City should require a traffic impact analysis of proposed new development be
conducted as part of the plan review process. The size and type of land use
development requiring such traffic analysis should be left to the discretion of the
City Engineer. No traffic impact analysis is required for residential land uses
unless an access request has been blocked by the county. The primary benefit of
these traffic analyses will be to determine:
o Access needs.
o Intersection and roadway improvements adjacent to and within the general
area of the proposed project.
o Traffic control needs.
• The City should ensure all city -owned traffic signals are retimed every 3 to five
years to fulfill MnDOT requirements.
• The City should pursue flashing yellow arrow operation upgrades on city -owned
signals. This operation will provide additional roadway efficiency during lower
volume periods of the day at signals that currently operate protected or protected -
permissive throughout the day. The County is currently completing a flashing
yellow arrow review.
The City should provide additional flexibility concerning access spacing. The re-
classification of Major/Minor Collectors is a good step in the process, but
additional focus and re-evaluation of 3/4 -accesses as conditional accesses
dependent on city review should be pursued with future developments.

SUBJECT: Hold Public Hearing/Order Plans & Specifications//17-44/Crosstown Blvd. NW
Overlay - Engineering
DATE: April 17, 2018
INTRODUCTION
The City Council is requested to hold a public hearing and order plans and specifications for
Project 17-44, Crosstown Boulevard NW Overlay.
DISCUSSION
Identified in the City's 2018-2022 Capital Improvement Plan is a bituminous overlay of Crosstown Boulevard
NW from Hanson Boulevard NW to 161" Avenue NW. Overlays are an effective construction method to
prolong the life of the pavement. Before Anoka County turned back Crosstown Boulevard to the City in 2006,
they reconstructed the roadway. Because of the traffic volume on this segment of road it is a good time to
complete an overlay to prolong the life another 15 years.
The project will include paving milling the existing pavement surface and placing 1.5" of bituminous over the
existing roadway. Right turn lane and bypass lane improvements will be constructed at Yellow Pine Street NW
and Avocet Street NW.
The project would take place this summer after Fun Fest is over and be substantially completed prior to school
starting this fall. Construction would require the road to be closed to through traffic from Bluebird Street NW
to 161" Avenue NW. A detour will be put in place to assist motorists.
This project is anticipated to extend the life of the streets in this area another 15+ years before a reconstruction
would be considered.
The total estimated project costs are $910,410. In accordance with the City of Andover's Roadway
Reconstruction Assessment Policy, a portion of the improvement cost is proposed to be assessed to the
benefitting properties. There are 17 parcels that are proposed to be assessed with this project. One
undeveloped parcel is proposed to have three unit assessments with two assessments being deferred on an
appreciation/depreciation scale, payable if the property is sold, developed, or access is requested onto
Crosstown Boulevard NW. Due to the limited number of properties fronting the improvements, it is not
reasonable nor feasible to assess the typical 25% of the actual construction costs. The estimated assessments at
that percentage would be near $12,000 per unit. A flat rate of $1,800 per unit is proposed to be assessed to
benefitting properties fronting the improvements. The flat rate would be assessed over a 5 -year period at 4.5%
interest. This assessment rate is in line with similar projects that have recently been completed.
Note that there is a City Park property proposed to be assessed one unit which is consistent with other similar
projects.

BUDGETIMPACT
The project would be funded by a combination of Municipal State Aid Funds and special assessments. The
total assessment amount is $34,200. The remaining balance will be funded by the City of Andover through
Municipal State Aid funds and is estimated to be $876,210.

Re: Project No. 17-44, Crosstown Blvd NW Overlay (Hanson Blvd. NW to 161st Ave. NW)
Public Hearing Notice
Dear Resident:
A feasibility report has been prepared to determine the estimated costs associated with road
improvements in your area for the proposed Crosstown Blvd NW Overlay (Hanson Blvd. NW to
161st Ave. NW)
The project will include paving 1.5" of bituminous over the existing roadway. This project is
anticipated to extend the life of the streets in this area another 15+ years before a
reconstruction would be considered. Right turn and bypass lane improvement will be
constructed at the intersections of Yellow Pine Street NW and Avocet Street NW.
The total estimated project costs are $910,410. In accordance with the City of Andover's
Roadway Reconstruction Assessment Policy, a portion of the improvement cost is proposed to
be assessed to the benefitting properties. There are 17 parcels that are proposed to be
assessed with this project. Due to the limited number of properties fronting the improvements, it
is not reasonable nor feasible to assess the typical 25% of the actual construction costs. A flat
rate of $1,800 per unit is proposed to be assessed to each parcel fronting Crosstown Boulevard.
The flat rate would be assessed over a 5 -year period at 4.5% interest.
Based on the proposed improvements relative to your parcel and as identified in the feasibility
report, your assessment is $1,800.00.
Enclosed is a public hearing notice for the proposed project. If you have any questions, feel
free to contact me at (763) 767-5133, or Jason Law, Assistant City Engineer at (763) 767-5130.
Sincerely,
David D. Berkowitz, P.E.

Re: Project No. 17-44, Crosstown Blvd NW Overlay (Hanson Blvd. NW to 1615' Ave. NW)
Public Hearing Notice
Dear Resident:
A feasibility report has been prepared to determine the estimated costs associated with road
improvements in your area for the proposed Crosstown Blvd NW Overlay (Hanson Blvd. NW to
161' Ave. NW)
The project will include paving 1.5" of bituminous over the existing roadway. This project is
anticipated to extend the life of the streets in this area another 15+ years before a
reconstruction would be considered. Right turn and a bypass lane improvement will be
constructed at the intersections of Yellow Pine Street NW and Avocet Street NW.
The total estimated project costs are $910,410. In accordance with the City of Andover's
Roadway Reconstruction Assessment Policy, a portion of the improvement cost is proposed to
be assessed to the benefitting properties. There are 17 parcels (19 units) that are proposed to
be assessed with this project. Your parcel has 3 units based on the rural residential standard
therefore is proposed to have three unit assessments with two assessments being deferred on
an appreciation/depreciation scale, payable if the property is sold, developed, or access is
requested onto Crosstown Boulevard NW. Due to the limited number of properties fronting the
improvements, it is not reasonable nor feasible to assess the typical 25% of the actual
construction costs. A flat rate of $1,800 per unit is proposed to be assessed to benefitting
properties fronting the improvements. The flat rate would be assessed over a 5 -year period at
4.5% interest.
Based on the proposed improvements relative to your parcel and as identified in the feasibility
report, your assessment is $5,400 for the three units in which $1,800 would be assessed and
$3,600 would be deferred.
Enclosed is a public hearing notice for the proposed project. If you have any questions, feel
free to contact me at (763) 767-5133, or Jason Law, Assistant City Engineer at (763) 767-5130.
