CSAH 11 CORRIOR STUDY REPORT <br />� BACKGROUND <br />Planning for the future of CSAH 11 has become a priority for Crow Wing County and its local partners <br />including the City of Pequot Lakes, City of Breezy Point, Ideal Township, Jenkins Township, and <br />Independent School District <br />ICH TR �.

To proactively <br />address this uncertainty, the County and the City of Pequot Lakes desire to understand the range of <br />feasible alternatives for both configurations and strategically plan for the changes to CSAH 11 in the <br />�" years leading up to the construction ofthe TH 371 bypass. <br />� <br />This Corridor Study is the vehicle to understand issues and concerns from a technical, regulatory, and <br />community standpoint. The project included development of alternatives that effectively address the <br />issues and concerns, essentially becoming the "roadmap" to advance continued planning, design, and <br />funding of improvements that address existing and future needs on the corridor. This effort has been <br />culminated in the preparation of this study report that the County, Cities, Townships, School District, and <br />general public can get behind and support to make traffic flow along the corridor safe and efficient. <br />This study specifically has evaluated six subareas as listed below. <br />• Trail connection between Pequot Lakes and Breezy Point <br />• Peyuot Lakes (between existing TH 371 and proposed TH 371) <br />• Eagle View Elementary School <br />• Ranchette Drive <br />• Whitebirch Drive <br />• Ackerson / Buschmann Road Corridor <br />Prepared by: Bolton & Menk, Inc.
