intersection, will be reconstructed with a roundabout to accommodate future traffic demands. This
design also accommodates a future north leg to the roundabout. CSAH 61 will also be reconstructed
to a 4 -lane design from Bluff Creek Drive to just east of the Highway 101 /CSAH 61 roundabout. A
roundabout is planned at the intersection of CSAH 61 and Bluff Creek Drive. The intersection at
CSAH 61 and the Highway 101 north leg will still operate with a signal until the alignment up the
bluff is improved. A trail is planned along the north side of CSAH 61 and on the west side of 101.

the LRIP funds. The two Counties are planning to pay for their Highway 101 approaches and split
the bridge funding shortfall 50150.
The trail costs are not tumback funding eligible. The Highway 101 trail corridor is on Carver
County's master trail plan so the trails, underpass and associated retaining wall will be split 50150
between the City and County. The trail improvements along CSAH 61 are 100% City cost. The
aesthetic treatment in the roundabouts and entry monument are 100% city cost. A portion of the
CSAH 61 project is not tumback eligible. These costs are proposed to be charged to the City per the
Carver County cost participation policy. Right -of -way is 75% tumback cost eligible along CSAH
61. The 25% of the remaining right -of -way cost is proposed to be split between Carver County and
the City per past projects.
The following is a breakdown of the City costs:
