Site work and paving for a mixed-use development in Bloomington, Minnesota. Conceptual plans call for site work for a road / highway; for paving for a road / highway; sidewalk / parking lot; sidewalk / parking lot; and water / sewer project.

Reconstruct Nicollet Avenue (CSAH 52) from 89th Street to American Boulevard in the City of Bloomington. Purpose & Description: The existing roadway (last reconstructed in 1962) is nearing the end of its useful life and warrants replacement. Routine maintenance activities (such as overlays and crackseals) are no longer cost effective in preserving assets. The roadway was originally constructed with concrete pavement, however, it has since been overlaid with bituminous material; resulting in premature surface cracking at joints. The existing sidewalk facilities are located immediately adjacent to the roadway; causing a feeling of discomfort for people walking. The curb has experienced settling, greatly diminishing its ability to collect water and define the roadway edge. Many intersections include ADA accommodations that do not meet current design requirements, presenting challenges for persons with limited mobility. In 2019, the county completed an overlay project along this section of Nicollet Avenue (CSAH 52) in coordination with a CenterPoint Energy gas main project. In addition to a new pavement surface, the roadway configuration was converted from a four-lane undivided design to a three-lane design in an effort to better facilitate driver turning movements and to provide traffic calming. Given the age and condition of roadway assets, the timing of this capital project will coincide with the service life extension provided by the overlay project. The proposed project will reconstruct existing assets, including: pavement, curb, storm water structures, sidewalk, bikeway, and traffic signals. Complete and Green Streets design strategies such as pedestrian crossing enhancements (curb extensions, raised medians, and crossing beacons), bikeway accommodations, and streetscaping features will also be considered as part of the project development process in an effort to benefit people walking, using transit, and biking in the area.
