1 <br />• Pedestrian access should not be allowed to/from the center of the nnindabout. Pedestrian <br />crossing of the roundabout roadway, in areas where vehicles are circling is hazardous and <br />increases the pedestrian/vchicie accident potential. <br />__ * <br />• The general internal roadway network of 20-fcct is a “bit” too narrow to safely <br />accommodate two-way traffic. Winter operation may be tenuous. Fire vehicle operation <br />should be discussed with the fire chief. Suggest a width of 24-feet for better traffic <br />operations. <br />■ Except for parking “cutouts”, parking should not be allowed on any internal street. <br />• Need for parking on Kelley Parkway adjacent to the site is quesUoned. The roadway <br />would be safer if parking is not allowed. <br />•* A small parking area is needed somewhere along West Lane leading to the cul-de-sac <br />(Northwest part of site). <br />■ The roadway on the south side of the 34-unit loft must be a one-way westbound roadway. <br />■ Vehicle turning radii, particularly for expected truck types, needs to be checked by the <br />developer to ensure that movements can be accommodated. <br />■ The driveway on the south end of the 30-unit loft should be 28-feet wide from face-of- <br />curb to face-of-curb. <br />Suggested access to the potential commercial areas on the SW and SE comers of the site <br />is noted on the site plan. Full movement access can be allowed along Kelley Paricway <br />and right in/right out access can be allowed along Highway 12 for the SE parcel and full <br />movement access, with Highway 12 improvements can be allowed tor the SW parcel at <br />the location shown on the marked up site plan. A right in/right out access can be allowed <br />along Willow for the SE parcel. <br />• An exclusive left turn lane should be constructed along Kelley Parkway at the <br />intersection with Willow Drive. The left turn storage length should be 200 feet <br />• The access location and number of access drives shown on the plan arc acceptable. <br />Traffic generated by the proposed development is estimated to be as follows: <br />Land Use No. of Units <br />AM Peak Hour <br />In Out <br />PM Peak Hour <br />In Out <br />Daily <br />(2-way) <br />Residential <br />Townhome & Lofts 168 985 <br />The volume of traffic can be efficiently accommodated by the access proposed on the site <br />plan. <br />2S3S IVBSt Highway 3$ • St. Paul, MN S5113* 6S1~63$*4600* Fax: 651-63$-1311
