8. Conclusions and Recommendations _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .� The traffic of the study network was thoroughly studied, and it was found that the study intersections and corridors are forecast to operate acceptably through the 2024 and 2039 scenarios. The following recommendations are made for the study network: � 2nd StreeUMain Street: stripe narrower lanes around the curve and restrict on- street parking on the west side of the curve. • Patriot Avenue/Main Street: remove the northbound and southbound right turn lanes and restrict on-street parking on the south side of Main Street west of Patriot Avenue for at least 100 feet from the crosswalk. • Rasmussen Road/Main Street: add seasonal curb bump outs. • Patriot Avenue/Woodman Street: add a pedestrian crossing with a median on the northern side of the intersection across Patriot Avenue. Extend the existing sidewalk on the west side of the intersection to this crossing. • Patriot Avenue/West Lake Street: no changes. • Patriot Avenue/Front Street: complete a test closure of the Front Street approaches utilizing temporary barriers. • Main Street/Paul Bunyan Trail: add a seasonal bump out on south side of Main Street, restrict parking on the south side of Main Street on that block and stripe eastbound Main Street to have one 12-foot lane.
