15Theme #1
Speed
•“Would recommend speed reduction at Ridgeway and Old
Wildwood Rd. highway section. Better maintenance of
brush control for visiability (sic) purposed off of Ridgeway
and Old Wildwood Rd.”
•“I never understood why the speed limit changes from 30
to 45 as one approaches Stillwater Road from the east.
Drives hit the gas and go high speed up the hill to
Wedgewood Road where it changes to 40. Maintain 40
from Century Avenue to Stillwater Rd.”
16Theme #2
Wedgewood Drive Intersection
•“Wedgewood Drive - Traffic Light and Improved
Crosswalk”
•“Great opportunity for great improvements! No
stoplight. Reduce speeds. Traffic calming efforts:
bump outs, warning lights, landscaping, narrow lanes.
Roundabouts where allowed. Greening/beautification.
Business development friendly designs.”
17Theme #3
Left Turn Lanes
•“I am in support of a left hand turn lane on to Old
Wildwood Road from 244 west. I have been almost
rear-ended too many times to count. Vehicles often
travel on the shoulder in order to pass a car that is
trying to turn left on to Old Wildwood Road.”
•“The Left Hand Lane on Birchwood Rd is much
needed. I was rear-ended turning left back in 2004.”
18Theme #4
Pedestrian Crossings
•“There needs to be a pedestrian crossing here with center
refuge and flashing lights (as per Mahtomedi Ave crossing
400 yards to the East and Neptune crossing) . There are a
lot of pedestrians who use the lincolntown streetcar trl to
get to Lake Links”
•“Prefer to have pedestrian crossing here (ridge way), don't
need another one at view rd. When driving north on
Wildwood and wanting to take a right on Old Wildwood, it
wouldn't make sense to have to stop for pedestrians in that
exact spot.”
19Theme #5
Causeway
•“Please provide design options and costs
for current and future investment in the
corridor for bike, runners, commuters and
micro-mobility, for the city council and
advocates to include: … Moving Guard
Rails, narrowing car lanes and placing bike
paths to north and south, outside of guard
rails.”
