Members of this committee will be part of a Traffic Safety Panel at the CEAM Conference next week. They informed the
group about what is planned for the panel and about working with other communities that have Traffic Safety Committees.
A suggestion to add a member of Chanhassen Fire Dept to the TSC came out of their discussions and this TSC felt that would

PWKS Director/City Engineer is coordinating with
multiple upcoming projects and MnDOT on getting
dynamic feedback signage installed. After review in the
field and driving the corridor there does not appear to
be a physical/tangible justification for vehicles driving
into other lanes. Based on this review there is no further
action required. This will be added to the tracker to
monitor and evaluate with any future project.
