Principal arterial. In the metropolitan area principal arterials are typically trunk highways
. Most are freeways, which
have controlled access with grade-separated interchanges, or expressways, which have limited
access with at-grade, signalized intersections at major cross streets. Principal arterials tend to
favor maximum mobility to promote traffic flow and minimal access points.
Minor arterial. These roadways are generally county roadways balancing mobility and access.
Older minor arterials typically favor access more than more recently constructed minor
arterials.
Major collector. These roadways are typically city streets but also include some county
facilities. Major collectors slightly favor access over mobility.

Sidewalk - A facility primarily for pedestrians, and typically (but not always) constructed of
concrete. Sidewalks may be placed directly behind the curb or may be separated from the
roadway by a boulevard area.
Multi-Use Path trail - A facility for both pedestrians and bicyclists, and typically (but not
always) constructed of bituminous pavement. Multi-use paths trailsmay be placed in the same
manner as sidewalks or substantially further separated from the roadway; for example, paths
trails are sometimes located in separate right-of-way or in a public park.
Bike Lane - A facility primarily for bicyclists. Bike lanes may be shared as a roadway shoulder
The city of Crystal does not currently have any dedicated bike lanes,
although these can be found on some county roads.
DJUZ!PG!DSZTUBM!
1. Adopt an official sidewalk and trail map showing existing and proposed facilities.
2. Consider options for improving safety at the marked pedestrian crosswalk on CSAH 102 (Douglas
Drive) at Fairview Avenue near the Crystal Community Center / pool complex.
3. Where feasible, Roadways roadways with existing striped shoulders or parking lanes on both sides
of the street could be designated as bike lanes where feasible. These existing segments are as
follows:
th
CSAH 10 (56Avenue a.k.a. Bass Lake Road) east of Yates Avenue.
th
Noble Avenue south of 36 Avenue.

32 Avenue from Nevada Avenue to Winnetka Avenue.

th
CSAH 70 (27Avenue a.k.a. Medicine Lake Road) west of CSAH 102 (Douglas Drive).
4.As additional roadways are re-striped or reconstructed with shoulders or parking lanes on both
sides of the street, they too could be designated as bike lanes where feasible. These potential
segments include but are not limited to the following:
th
West Broadway north of 57 Avenue (reconstruction).
West Broadway south of Fairview Avenue (reconstruction).
th
36Avenue west of CSAH 102 (Douglas Drive)

2. Planning for the park system should place an increased emphasis on a community perspective,
with a secondary emphasis on neighborhoods.
3. Specific park facility improvements should attempt to maximize adaptive flexibility so that the
