Minnesota Department of Transportation . 1500 West County Road B-2 Roseville, MN 55113 - Re: City of Orono—Fox Street Bridge Existing MnDOT Bridge No. L8865 . Proposed MnDOT Bridge No. 27B 13 S.A.P. No. 152-105-01 Our File No. 139-03-136 Dear Dan: • I am writing regarding the variance that the City of Orono will be re uestin for the brid e q g g replacement. Once we have an opportunity to discuss the variance, the City Council wi11 consider a resolution regarding the variance. The project in question involves replacing an existing 26-foot wide bridge in Orono. The bridge serves primarily local residents. Included with this letter are some photos of the project area and a map .showing the project location. • i�ariance Requested MnDOT design standards for rural bridges calls for a minimum of 12-foot lane widths and 4-foot shoulders. The curb to curb width of the bridge is the sum of the lanes width and shoulder widths plus four feet. This would require a minimum curb to curb width on the bridge of 36 feet. We are requesting a variance from Rule 8820.9920 to allow two 12-foot lane widths and 2-foot shoulders. The specific variances requested are: l. Two 12-foot wide traffic lanes and 2-foot wide shoulders on each side in lieu of the � � minimum 12-foot wide traffic lanes and 4-foot wide shoulders required; and . 2. A 28-foot wide bridge roadway (curb to curb) in lieu of the minimum 36-foot wide bridge roadway required. 2335 West Highway 36 • St. Paul, MN 55113 . G51-G3G-4�00 . Fax: G51-G36-1311
