REQUEST FOR PURCHASE SOUTHDALE AREA TRAFFIC MODEL AND TRANSPORTATION
STUDY
Director Millner explained WSB in 2008 had assisted the City in the development of the original traffic
model for the Southdale Area. The proposed project would update that model and prepare a
transportation analysis for two land use density scenarios. The results of the study will document the
traffic needs on the roadways and analyze roadway geometries and traffic control improvements
required to accommodate future traffic growth. It will also analyze the existing and future pedestrian and
bicycle system needs.
Commissioner Brindle asked for the location of the study area. Staff explained the area was bordered
by France and York Avenues on the east and west, with a northerly boundary of T.H. 62 and southerly
boundary of 1-494. Following a brief discussion, Commissioner Stewart made a motion,
seconded by Commissioner Brindle, awarding WSB & Associates Inc. a contract for the
Southdale Area Traffic Model and Transportation Study at$125,000.00
Ayes: Brindle, Staunton, Stewart, Hovland
