CMP Part 4A. Transportation Plan <br /> Regional/County Road Access <br /> Access to US 12 must meet MnDOT access management guidelines. Hennepin County has <br /> established access management guidelines for county roads.Hennepin County requires permits for <br /> new driveway access to county roads and when land uses change at a site adjacent to a county <br /> road. In addition, the county reviews development plats for access management compliance. <br /> Hennepin County typically requires that new access points meet its guidelines; however, the <br /> county can make exceptions to the guidelines with sufficient justification. (See Hennepin County <br /> Transportation Plan for detailed county access requirements and guidelines). <br /> Orono Access Management <br /> Management of access to principal and minor arterials is necessary to ensure a safe and efficient <br /> arterial system. Direct individual property access to arterials is regulated in the Orono Municipal <br /> Code by requiring development of local or private roads to serve new residential developments of <br /> 3 or more units; by limiting the number of curb cuts per residence; by prohibiting direct access to <br /> principal arterials; and by a number of other regulations involving the location, type and number <br /> of access points to the arterial roadway system. However,many of southern Orono's arterials near <br /> the Lake Minnetonka shoreline have historically served a dual function as both arterials and as <br /> local/collector streets, due to geographic and topographic limitations. It should be noted that there <br /> are existing access points that do not meet City, County, and MnDOT access spacing guidelines. <br /> In most cases these access points were established prior to agency access spacing guidelines. In <br /> other cases the agency has granted an exception to the existing guidelines. As roadways are <br /> reconstructed, each of these agencies generally works to modify and/or relocate access points that <br /> do not meet current access spacing guidelines in the interest of long term safety and efficiency. <br /> Pavement Preservation /Maintenance. <br /> Pavement Preservation is a <br /> program employing a network <br /> level, long-term strategy to c710 75%Time <br /> enhance pavement performance $1.00 of <br /> �\ 40% Renovation <br /> by using integrated, cost- > Quality +/(` Cost Here <br /> effective set of practices that 8 �� Drop <br /> Lowest Annual <br /> Will Cost$4.00 <br /> extend pavement life, improve0 <br /> 0 Resurfacing Cost to $5.00 It <br /> Delayed to <br /> safety and meet resident's — 6 Here. <br /> expectations.
