None.
VIII. Chair and Member Comments
Commissioner Olson spoke with Susan Lee, Planning Commission, and thought that maybe ETC should review
Traffic Studies that are submitted with new developments before it goes to the Planning Commission.
Commissioner Ruthruff noted that new developments have a Living Streets plan submitted, but it stays within their
site, and it should look beyond their development.
Commissioner Richman said there’s a tax bill that does remove the tax benefit for businesses that offer commuter
incentives for cycling. Also, the ETC took the resident’s parking concern on Doncaster Way last month
seriously, but didn’t do a follow up as to why it was denied. At future meetings, if the topic will be covered later
on the Agenda move it up, so the residents can hear the discussion or do a follow up letter that all commissioners
agree on the response.
Commissioner Miranda said there was a pedestrian hit at 46th St and Xerxes Ave. Article by Bob Lutz said the
future of autos in 20 years there will be no cars. Strava has a new heat map of walking and biking. Brent Toderian
said the best Transportation Plan is a land use Plan. US Bank in Hopkins would like light rail in the area.
Commissioner LaForce was on vacation in Little Rock, AR and there was at a six lane road where there were no
facilities to accommodate the pedestrian.
IX. Staff Comments
• Planner Nolan normally presents the PACS Fund Projects in November, but will wait a month or two,
pending the outcome of the Ped/Bike Plan, Valley View Rd sidewalk plans and Grandview Projects.

Date: October 19, 2017
To: Edina Transportation Committee
From: Dave Van Hattum, DARTS Transportation Program Manager
Subject: ETC conversation on 10/26/17 regarding next steps for planning a DARTS Edina Bus
Circulator
This memo provides a quick refresher of the DARTS LOOP circular bus model (what, where, cost,
process, etc.). It then poses some key questions for the ETC to consider at the 10/26/17 meeting at
which I will participate and answer any questions about the DARTS LOOP and applications in Edina.
DARTS LOOP Circular Bus Key Features
Audience for the bus service: Primary Audience = seniors, Secondary Audience = Low-income, disabled.
Service features: DARTS typically uses buses with capacity for 15-18 total passengers with space for 2-3
secured wheelchairs/scooters. All LOOP buses are lift equipped. LOOP drivers typically provide a higher
level of assistance with bags, boarding/un-boarding than Metro Transit or Metro Mobility. LOOP’s are
designed to fill a transit gap not currently served by Metro Transit or Metro Mobility.
Service hours: one day per week, 5-6 hours per day.
Operating cost: Approximately $25,000 per year for each LOOP.
Funding model: City funding, plus business and individual sponsors that receive visibility on LOOP
schedules and bus banners. A nominal fare is typically charged, ranging from $2:00/day to $5.00/day.
Fares typically make up 10-15% of annual operating costs.
Planning Process for designing route, stops, and schedule: An Edina LOOP Advisory Committee
determines the route, stops, and schedule. A key starting point is to complete a needs assessment
survey typically distributed to all residents in the senior facilities to be served by the LOOP, and also
more widely distributed via survey monkey.
For ease in understanding, LOOP’s have traditionally been one-hour, but that is not required. 10-12
LOOP stops is usually the maximum for a one-hour LOOP (see DRAFT Edina LOOP routes on next page).
While having a fixed-route schedule, LOOP’s also typically allow for some on-demand pick-up and drop-
offs of passengers.
LOOP Advisory Committee makeup: (in no particular order): Senior building managers, senior services
(i.e. Edina Senior Center, Senior Community Services), Library, Chamber of Commerce, YMCA/YWCA, city
staff, ETC member(s). In addition to determining the LOOP service (route, stops), the Advisory
Committee assists with the community needs assessment survey, obtaining sponsors, and LOOP
Questions for the ETC to consider on 10/26/17 as they craft the process to
implement a LOOP/circulator bus in 2018.
1) What should the partnership with DARTS look like, one or all of the below?
• DARTS as bus provider, operator of bus?
• DARTS as consultant on design and operation of circulator?
• DARTS to handle dispatch, so people have a number to call for on-demand stops,
other general information, etc.?
2) Is the Committee clear on the transit gap that you want fill in Edina? In other words, is your primary
audience seniors? Seniors and low-income? Or the general public with a specific transit gap in mind
(e.g. students, disabled, key connection to existing transit/future service)?
3) Assuming funding availability at the start of 2018, what is the timeline for getting a bus up and
running?
4) What will be your measure of success? Total ridership, unduplicated riders, rider satisfaction, etc.
5) Matching bus capacity with new service. Earlier materials mapped two possible LOOP’s. Can Edina
pilot one but not both of these without a lot of pushback? If the City decided to just “pilot” one
LOOP, what is the criteria for choosing? For example, ridership, seniors served, etc. Also, whether
one or two LOOP’s is planned, is there a contingency plan if rider demand were to greatly exceed
bus capacity?
6) What will be the relationship between the ETC and a new Circulator Bus Advisory Committee?
7) The City and ETC has described the new 2018 bus circulator as a 6-month “pilot.” With that in mind,
are ETC members envisioning:
1) A sustainable LOOP in which key information is collected during the “pilot” in order to tweak
the new transit route for service which will then operate for the foreseeable future? Or:
2) A “pilot” where long-term funding is so uncertain that it may just be a 6 month “pilot”.
Note: It has been my experience in the transit industry that “piloting” a new service will create a
substantial public expectation that the service continue. Therefore, the City and ETC should, at this
juncture, be either preparing for long-term funding sustainability of a circulator bus, or creating very
precise communications to the public and stakeholders about the possible short-term nature of this
“pilot” project.

Prepared by: Aboubekrine (Bocar) Kane
Subject: Clsosing the ETC - Consultants & City council feedback loop
BACKGROUND
This is quick report stemmed from Edina Transportation Commission (ETC)
discussions regarding the Dan Patch corridor project. This report focuses on how to
close the gap of the engagement process with the Edina business community and
providing the city council mid way opportunities to provide feedback to ETC and
consultants on how to close the current opportunities in the process to en sure that
Edina stays ahead and captures the benefits of future developments.
CURRENT STATE
OPPORTUNITY
Currently we have two opportunities to improve the process and ensure city council
is presented with accurate input to make decisions that will impact Edina’s future.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
1- Create a robust sampling process for Edina businesses to provide input on projects that will
impact Edina’s future.
2- Develop a mid-way process review of the current state of consultants progress that will be
reviewed by City Council to ensure all parties (ETC, Consultants and City Council) are
calibrated and are on the same page. Then decide on the course of action.

W 66th and Valley View Rd
December 21, 2017
Edina Transportation Commission
Nick Bauler, Traffic Safety Coordinator
Traffic Safety Report of December 5, 2017
Information / Background:
The Traffic Safety Committee (TSC) review of traffic safety matters occurred on December 5. The Traffic
Safety Coordinator, Police Lieutenant, Engineering Director, Public Works Director and Transportation
Planner were in attendance for this meeting. The Assistant City Planner and the Traffic Safety Specialist were
not able to attend and were informed of the decisions and did not object to the recommendations.
For these reviews, the recommendations below are provided. On each of the items, persons involved have
been contacted and the staff recommendation has been discussed with them. They were informed that if
they disagree with the recommendation or have additional facts to present, these comments can be included
on the December 21 Edina Transportation Commission and the January 17 City Council meeting agendas.
Section A: Items on which the Traffic Safety Committee recommends action:
A1. Request to raise pedestrian awareness at the intersection of W 66th St and Valley View Rd
A resident is concerned with crossing the
northern portion of this intersection
Three of the four legs at this intersection are
classified as Minor Arterial streets
Pedestrian crossings are located on the
north and west sides of the intersection
Requestor states vehicles fail to yield for
pedestrians within crosswalks
There is one recorded vehicle-pedestrian
collision that took place in 2014
After review, staff recommends adding pedestrian signs for the northeast and northwest
crossings. Adding these signs should raise awareness for crossing pedestrians.
STAFF REPORT Page 2
Map: Location of Blake and Maloney
Map: Location of Edgebrook Place
A2. Request to change current on-street parking on Edgebrook Place
Edgebrook Pl is a one-way street in the
Country Club neighborhood
Parking is allowed on the right (outer) side
of the street
The width of Edgebrook is 17’ 6”
Vehicles are traveling on Edgebrook are
driving onto the boulevard at 4616
Browndale Ave causing ruts and chipping a
tree to maneuver around parked vehicles on
the north end of Edgebrook Pl
The City received feedback from residents along Edgebrook Pl. Most residents are against
restricting parking along all of Edgebrook Pl
Other feedback from residents included restricting parking along the north and south curves
EFD recommends restricting parking along all of Edgebrook for EMS vehicles
After review, staff recommends restricting parking along the north and south portions of
Edgebrook Place, where there are tighter curves. Restricting parking at these areas will lead
to adequate space for EMS services to enter Edgebrook Place from both directions.
Section B: Items on which the Traffic Safety Committee recommends no action:
B1. Request for a crosswalk across Blake Rd at Maloney Ave
A resident is requesting a crosswalk at this
intersection claiming it is dangerous to cross
at Blake Rd
Blake Rd and Maloney Ave are state-aided,
‘Collector’ streets
Blake Rd is uncontrolled
Maloney Ave is stop-controlled
East Maloney Ave has ‘No Outlet’
Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church is
located on the south-west corner of the
intersection
ADT on Blake Rd is 8604 from 2015
ADT on Maloney Ave is 1803 from 2016
A sidewalk is located on the south-west side of Maloney Ave
There is one recorded vehicle-pedestrian collision that took place in 2011
Blake Rd had 15 total pedestrian crosses with a two-hour peak of 4 crosses at 8 am
STAFF REPORT Page 3
Map: Location of pedestrian crosses on
W 65th St
After review, staff recommends no action as this intersection did not meet warrants. Staff
believes the ‘No Outlet’ to the east of Maloney may limit the total number of pedestrians
crossing at this location.
Section C: Items which staff recommends for further study
C1. Request to add a crosswalk on W 65th street between the two hospital entrances
Requestor is concerned with the amount of
pedestrians crossing between the medical
facilities along with the high amounts of
traffic
This section of W 65th St is classified as a
Local Street
A total of 427 pedestrian crosses took place
at this location
The two-hour peak of pedestrian crossings
took place between 11:30 and 1:30 with 102
crossings
There is one recorded vehicle-pedestrian collision that took place in 2008
After review, staff recommends designing a crosswalk at this location as it meets crosswalk
warrants. The Committee would like to review the crosswalk design as this location has many
issues to consider.
Section D: Other Traffic Safety Items Handled
D1. A resident was concerned with the location of a stop sign for southbound vehicles traveling on Grimes
Ave approaching Sunnyside Rd. After analysis, the sign is visible from over 600’, which is an acceptable
distance. The resident is also concerned with drivers failing to stop at this sign, the EPD was informed of this
issue, and will be patrolling this intersection.
D2. A resident was concerned with eastbound vehicles stacking up on W. 50th St while approaching France
Ave. This resident is requesting a ‘Do Not Block Intersection’ sign for stacking vehicles. When analyzing this
section of W. 50th St, a ‘Do Not Block Intersection’ is located west of Bruce Ave.
D3. A resident was concerned with vehicle speeds on Richmond Dr. and requesting lowering the speed
limit. After collecting speed data, the 85% speed was 26 MPH. This speed is of low concern, and the traffic
safety committee will not consider lowering speeds below state statute here.
D4. A resident from Glacier Pl is concerned with vehicle speeds on Gleason between Vernon and HWY 62.
This stretch of Gleason was just reconstructed because of the Ninemile Creek Regional Trail project in the
summer of 2017. This concern was forwarded to the EPD for increased patrolling during the winter months.
Once the EPD has the temporary speed trailer out in the spring, it will be placed in this location to raise
drivers speed awareness.
STAFF REPORT Page 4
D5. A resident is requesting speed enforcement on Wooddale in the Country Club neighborhood. This was
forwarded to the EPD for enforcement. The resident also requested speed bumps to be placed, but there is
still no interest by the City in placing speed bumps on public roads.
D6. A resident is requesting a crosswalk to be placed across the park entrance road near the entrance of
the parking lot of Bredesen Park. After analyzing, it is recommended to place a crosswalk in this city facility.
D7. A resident requested to add parking spaces on the south side of Valley Lane, opposite of Doron Lane.
The resident believes this will lead to the decrease in vehicles parking along Doron Lane. Parking is currently
allowed on the south side of Valley Lane, and adding any parking in this location is found to be unnecessary.
D8. A resident was concerned with a sidewalk being closed along Lincoln Dr during the construction of the
new Opus complex. Since the concern has been raised, the sidewalk in this location has been re-installed.
D9. A resident was requesting increased police enforcement at the intersection of Claremore Dr and
Oaklawn Ave. The resident is concerned with the design of the intersection, many people fail to stop at the
stop signs. This request was forwarded to the EPD.
STAFF REPORT Page 5
Appendix:
Crosswalk Warrants
A. Marked crosswalks are placed at locations that are unusually hazardous or at locations not readily
apparent as having pedestrian movement.
B. Marked crosswalks will only be placed in an area that has 20 or more pedestrian crossings in a two-hour
period.
C. Marking for crosswalks will be established by measuring the “Vehicle Gap Time”. This is the total number
of gaps between vehicular traffic recorded during the average five-minute period in the peak hour. Criteria
for markings are:
1) More than five gaps – pavement marking and signage only.
2) Less than five gaps – add actuated pedestrian signals.
D. Crosswalks will not be placed on arterial roads or roads with a speed limit greater than 30 mph unless in
conjunction with signalization.
E. Other conditions that warrant crosswalks:
1) Routes to schools
2) Locations adjacent to libraries, community centers, and other high use public facilities.
3) Locations adjacent to public parks.
4) Locations where significant numbers of handicapped persons cross a street.
5) Locations where significant numbers of senior citizens cross a street.
F. Crosswalks will only be placed at intersections.
