1 <br /> ..:11) <br /> The Metropolitan Council classifies roadways using a hierarchical classification scheme. This scheme <br /> has four general classifications: principal arterial, minor arterial, collector, and local streets. Table 8-1 <br /> lists the roads by functional class. <br /> Principal Arterials are the highest roadway classification and are considered part of the metropolitan <br /> Interstate freeways. Interstate freeways connect the region with other areas in the state and other states. <br /> They also connect the metropolitan centers to regional business concentrations. The emphasis is on <br /> mobility as opposed to land access. New Brighton is bisected by principal arterials I-35 W and I-694. <br /> The two principal arterials located in New Brighton are Interstate 35W and Interstate 694. I-35W is <br /> located on the eastern edge of the City and runs north/south. It is a six-lane freeway with interchange <br /> access at County 96, I-694, County Road E-2, and County Road D. 1-694 runs east/west through the <br /> middle portion of the City. It is a six-lane freeway with interchange access at Silver Lake Road, Long <br /> Lake Road,and I-35W. <br /> Minor Arterials are intended to connect important locations within the City with access points to the <br /> freeway system as well as provide access between neighboring city business centers. These arterials carry <br /> short to medium trips. The emphasis of minor arterials is on mobility as opposed to access in the urban <br /> area. <br /> There are 14 roadways that are classified as minor arterials: County Road D, County Road E, County <br /> Road F:2, County Road H, Silver Lake Road, Old Highway 8,glcveland Avenue,New Brighton Road, ._—(Deleted:s"'Street N, <br /> IOh Street NW, Long Lake Road, Rice Creek Road, Highway 88,and Highway 96. The minor arterial <br /> roadways in New Brighton typically are characterized as having either two or four through traffic lanes <br /> with additional turn lanes provided at intersections. Intersections with other arterials may be controlled <br /> with traffic signals. Parking is generally prohibited and access to abutting property is often limited. <br /> Collector Streets are designed to provide connections between neighborhoods and from neighborhoods <br /> to minor business concentrations. The emphasis on mobility and land access are equal. Collector streets <br /> typically provide a connection to minor arterials. <br /> Major collectors in New Brighton include I"Street NW, 5'h Avenue NW,5th Street NW,7`h Street NW, <br /> 18'h Avenue NW,e StreeE.........Avenue NW 10t Street NW, 14th Street NW, 16th Avenue SW, 16th __.••{Formatted:Superscript <br /> Street NW, Silver Lane,Foss Road, Stinson Boulevard,Mississippi Street,and Innsbruck Drive.
