Wooddale Avenue Bike Lanes

The final report and supporting attachments are available in the Documents library to the right. At the July 21 City Council meeting, staff will present the reconfiguration options, discuss how they support the City's strategic goals, review the community feedback and seek direction on which option to implement with the upcoming resurfacing project.

Feedback can be provided to Council in several ways (see Ways to Contact the City Council at https://www.edinamn.gov/772/City-Council). Please note that since this project will be on the July 21 Council agenda, Community Comments can only be provided at the June 16 Council meeting.

Staff has developed five configuration options for consideration on Wooddale Avenue between Wooddale Lane and Valley View Road:

• Option 1: One-Way Bike Lanes
• Option 2A: East Side Two-Way Bike Lane with Partial Parking
• Option 2B: East Side Two-Way Bike Lane with No Parking
• Option 2C: West Side Two-Way Bike Lane with No Parking
• Option 3: Existing Configuration

The details of each option can be found in the Documents library to the right. These options were developed based on MnDOT's Bicycle Facility Design Manual and Municipal State Aid minimum design standards.

The final report will be published to this site by Friday, June 5. Staff will present the report to City Council on Tuesday, July 21. The presentation to Council was originally scheduled for June 16 but has been rescheduled to provide sufficient opportunity for community feedback. On July 21, staff will present the options to Council, discuss how they support the City's strategic goals, review the community feedback and seek direction on which option to implement.

Feedback can be provided to Council in several ways (see Ways to Contact the City Council at https://www.edinamn.gov/772/City-Council). Please note that since this project will be on the July 21 Council agenda, Community Comments can only be provided at the June 2 and June 16 Council meetings.

The online survey responses and summary are now available under the Documents section of this page. Private information (including usernames) has been redacted. Staff continues to review alternative options for the roadway configuration that seek to improve the bicycle facilities and minimize the impact to on-street parking availability. The final report is expected to be published to this site by Wednesday, May 27. Staff will present the report to City Council on Tuesday, June 16.

The online survey will close tomorrow, April 24 at 4:30 p.m. After the survey closes, staff will review all of the feedback submitted along with the results of our technical evaluation to develop a recommendation to City Council. The final recommendation will be posted on BTE and shared with adjacent property owners. There will be opportunities to provide additional comments to City Council before they are asked to approve the recommendation in June.

If you have any additional questions, please contact Transportation Planner Andrew Scipioni.
