. PETITION - COUNTY RD. 146 (BROWN RD. ) DETOUR <br /> On April 2, 1979, County Rd. 15 will be closed from Cty Rd. 51 to Wayzata for <br /> rebuilding the Tanager Lake Bridge and installation of a sewer interceptor line. <br /> • Construction is scheduled to last for 45 working days or about 10 weeks. During <br /> this period, traffic from 15 will be rerouted along county road 146 (Brown Road) <br /> thru Orono and Long Lake to State Highway 12. <br /> Traff�c on Brown Road will be increased from 1 ,000 cars per day to 11 ,000 cars <br /> per day! This will turn an already hazardous road into an extremely dangerous <br /> one, jeopardizing the lives of children and pets , and creating difficult access. <br /> This 2 mile stretch of road (Brown Road from 51 to Watertown Road) has no <br /> significant turns and no stop signs which has created a speedway with speeds <br /> often exceeding$0 mph in 40 mph zone. <br /> We, the undersigned, live on or near Brown Road (146) and have our only or our <br /> primary access onto South Brown Road. In order to reduce this threat to our <br /> health, safety, and welfare, we are petitioning the City of Orono and the <br /> County of Hennepin to: <br /> � 1 . Have a police patrol car on duty during the morning and evening rush <br /> hours (6:30 am to 8:30 am and 3:30 pm to 6:30 pm) assigned exclusively <br /> to patrol the section of County Road 146 from County Road 51 to Highway <br /> 12 to enforce the speed and other traffic laws dyring the period of <br /> the detour. <br /> 2. Install a 4 way stop sign at 146 and Fox Street to slow down the <br /> traffic flow during the period of this detour. To be effective, <br /> the signs must be installed before April 2, 1979 <br /> � <br /> Some of us have already had pets and children hit by cars on Brown Road under <br /> normal traffic conditions as indicated below. <br /> HIT BY CAR <br /> NAME ADDRESS DOG CHILD <br /> f'�.. } , %- �. r: • , ;r�l. � . �.,. ;+.
