FRANK BOYLES, CITY MANAGE
PRESENTATION: JON ULRICH REGARDING I 494 AND TH
169 INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS
As the City Council is aware, one of the impediments to the
effectiveness of TH169 has been the lighted intersections at I 494
and TH 169. The original intersection configurations were the
product of compromises with cities when the original project was
approved. The present configuration regularly results in rolling
backups north and south bound during peak traffic times. For
some time, as effort has been underway to get the significant
amount of funding needed to improve these intersections. With the
help of federal stimulus money and the Transportation Advisory
Board (TAB), the final funding piece has been secured so the
project can move forward. Jon Ulrich, a long-time supporter of this
project, Scott County Commissioner and member of TAB, will be
present to talk about this important development.
