INTRODUCTION
Capital planning is one of the fundamental building blocks in developing an effective budgeting process. Capital
Plans serve as an important planning tool for Washington County to plan for, and anticipate, growth or economic
changes. It also provides a mechanism to match cash flows to meet the desired level of capital improvements, as
well as providing information to schedule capital projects that conform to cash flow constraints, maximize
investment yields through thoughtful bond planning, or to establish the required levels and the most economical
source of project funding. Capital plans also help to establish a guide for making capital investment decisions
logically and in a deliberate and accountable fashion. In this way, options for major repair, replacement,
acquisitions, and construction can be thoroughly evaluated.
The purpose of the cCapital Improvement Plan (CIP) is to recognize and address county needs through
long-term planning and balanced investment in supporting public infrastructure. To ensure that this commitment is
viable and achievable, appropriate capital improvement factors will be given significant consideration in developing
a CIP that addresses county priorities and serves the needs of the county over the next five years. This document
will also provide a planning foundation for future needs assessments to ensure the county is responding to critical
infrastructure components of future growth. The CIP represents a beginning in terms of producing a consolidated
capital improvement plan and project schedule that will lead to timely and cost-effective completion.
The objectives of the 2021-2025 Capital Improvement Plan are to present a comprehensive plan that
communicates the following efforts:
to ensure that county priorities are reflected in its capital investment plan,
to provide a consolidated financial picture of known anticipated expenditures and outline recommended
funding strategies for capital improvements,
to document and communicate capital improvement needs for county projects that will ensure consistency
and a comprehensive analysis of the costs and benefits of proposed capital investments,
to provide information on the known fiscal impacts of capital investment plans on total county finances, and
to effectively plan for improvements that support county needs in the areas of major capital projects such
as public facilities, roads and bridges, and parks and land.
Accordingly, this document attempts to recognize known or perceived capital improvement needs, but as with any
plan, recognizes that social, economic, and political consideration will, by necessity, determine final project
outcomes and costs. Consequently, the Washington County Board of Commissioners adopts this document with
the provision that capital improvement planning is subject to the dynamics of county growth and acknowledges that
other unanticipated needs or funding availability may take precedence over planned projects.
EXPLANATION
The projects programmed for funding are based on need and the ability to finance them. The CIP covers a
five-year period, with projects in the first year included in the annual budget. Each year the CIP plan is updated and
extended one year to reflect changing conditions, circumstances, priorities, and needs. The CIP sets forth the
schedule, estimated cost, sources of funding, and specific details of each capital improvement project. The 2021-
2025 CIP totals $297,249,400, of which $71,208,200 will be adopted 2021 capital budget.
Only new project costs that begin in any one of the five-year planning cycles are included in this CIP. If a multi-year
4

DBQJUBM!JNQSPWFNFOU!QMBO!ΑΏΑΔ
project was budgeted in a year prior to this five-year period, and continues into the next five-year period, it is not
reflected in this document, as those costs are not considered new project costs to the county. Under County policy,
the unspent budget for those projects roll forward until the project is completed, without further board action.
However, when a project that was reflected in a prior CIP has new budget dollars appropriated in the current CIP,
total costs are mentioned above the description section of the project to accurately reflect all associated project
costs: past, present, and future.
Projects included in this CIP have the following characteristics:
are related to Parks and Land, or
are related to Public Facilities, or
are related to Transportation / Transit Infrastructure (roads and bridges), and
are Capital Projects Fund(s), or
are budgeted within the Regional Rail Authority Fund, and
have an expected useful life of five years or more.
Additionally, an informal multi-year planning document related to capital technology and equipment can be viewed
.
The following describes the information listed in the summary tables and/or project detail sheets:
Budget Impact / Other
Information listed here describes if
operating budget and the services that the county provides. Financial factors may include personnel costs,
maintenance costs, utility costs, or various changes in revenues/expenditures, etc. Estimated dollar amounts are
included when known and available. Non-financial factors may include environmental impacts, response times,
access to services, public safety, etc.
Category
There are three categories into which a project may fall.
Parks & Land projects include the acquisition and development of land and park facilities for recreation
and open space purposes.
Public Facilities projects include the construction or expansion of county buildings used for offices and
operations, excluding parks facilities included above.
Road & Bridge projects involve the construction of transportation infrastructure, transit projects, pavement
improvement projects, railroad crossing improvements, right-of-way acquisition needed for transportation
projects, safety improvements, traffic management signals, etc.
Department / Contact
Identifies the capital project fund used to account for the project and identifies the department in charge of
managing the project.

Description
A brief description and/or scope of the project.
Justification
This field is used to outline the need for the project.
Project Number / Name
These are the numbers and project names assigned to a specific project in the CIP. They are used in reviewing the
status of ongoing projects and evaluating past years' efforts and accomplishments as CIP projects are completed.
Numbers appearing along with a project name in the Road & Bridge projects indicate the county road number. For
example, CSAH 13 is County State Aid Highway 13; TH 95 is Trunk Highway 95. This numeric format will appear
throughout the Road & Bridge CIP section.
Expenditure Type / Expenditures
Describes the type of expenditure the project falls into: Construction, Land Acquisition, Planning/Design, and Right-
of-Way.
Five Year Costs
This is the estimated cost of the project during the current five-year period; unknown factors at the time of
publishing the CIP can result in changes to the actual project costs as those factors become known. If a project
listed in this CIP had additional associated costs adopted in a former CIP, or will have costs in a future CIP, total
For projects that involve other agencies
, only those costs managed by the county are
listed, unless noted in the description of the project.
NOTE: When Bond Proceeds are indicated as a funding source, a matching amount of expenditures are shown in
the same year, however, all expenditures may not actually occur in the same year as the bonds are sold. They are
reflected in this manner
Funding Sources
These are the projected financing methods for the projects. If more than one funding source is used for a given
project, the project will be listed with its corresponding amount under each applicable funding source on the
Projects by Funding Source summary report.
Funding needs are met using a variety of methods. The major financing methods included in this CIP are reviewed
below.
Bond Proceeds / Other Bonds are debt instruments sold by a county that are repaid over a number of
years through county property taxes or through other revenue streams. Bond proceeds may include capital
improvement bonds as well as capital notes sold by the county. Additionally, Land and Water Legacy
Program (LWLP) are revenues that have been generated from a voter approved referendum of the sale of
bonds for the preservation of water quality, woodlands, and other natural areas. The proceeds of bond
sales are used to pay for capital projects.
Capital Repair Fund revenues are derived from rent each department pays to the Building Services
6

Division based on a space allocation methodology. This fund pays for major rehabilitation, restoration, and
maintenance of existing capital assets and county facilities.
County Environmental Charge is a fee imposed under Minnesota statute on all generators, owners,
lessees or occupants of property, including properties owned, leased, or used by the State or a political
subdivision of the State. The intent of the service charge (fee) is to provide for solid waste management
services by the County or by those under contract with the County.
County Program Aid is revenue aid given to county governments from the State of Minnesota and is
intended to reduce property taxes for individual taxpayers. This revenue source is often reduced through
legislative action due to statewide budget issues, therefore final amounts may change substantially based
on decisions made during the annual legislative sessions.
County Sales Tax 993 is a funding source derived from a ¼ percent sales tax and $20 per motor vehicle
excise tax. The revenue is dedicated for improvements included in a transportation and transit plan specific
to this revenue source and adopted/amended by the County Board following a public hearing.
Federal Grants are monies supplied by the federal government for certain local projects when they meet
goals that are of national importance. These funds may range from as small as a 10 percent contribution to
a 100 percent cost grant.
Local Contribution is the amount a local government will pay toward a project that mutually benefits the
county and the local jurisdiction. Typically cities fund right-of-way acquisitions for road projects.
Contributions from local governments are based on cost-participation agreements.
Local Grants are monies supplied by the local government for certain local projects when they meet goals
that are of local importance.
Planned Use of Fund Balance is typically used when the timing of expenditures does not match receipt of
the revenue. For example, revenues may be accumulated in advance of a major capital project and added
to fund balance until project funding is needed, or fund balance may be used in anticipation of future
reimbursements from external sources.
Planned Use of Fund Balance MDB (Mission Directed Budget) is used by allocating a portion of
unassigned year-end excess revenues over expenses to fund special priority projects.
Private Funds include revenue sources such as donations from private citizens, foundations,
commissions, and other sources not listed elsewhere.
State Aid is a formula-based grant from the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) to fund
maintenance and construction of road projects.
State Bonds are revenues generated from the sale of state transportation bonds.

State Grants are monies supplied by the state government for certain programs or projects when they
meet goals that are of state importance. These funds may range from a 10 percent contribution to a 100
percent cost grant.
State Sales Tax revenues are generated from a 3/8ths of one percent sales tax which was voter-approved
in 2008, and implemented on July 1, 2009, for the purpose of improving outdoor heritage, clean water,
parks and trails, and cultural resources.
Turnback (Jurisdictional Transfer) is funding that is given when a road is assigned to the jurisdictions
best suited to effectively and efficiently own and operate them. Roads may be low priority for one agency
may be a higher priority for another agency. The Minnesota Department of Transportation and local
governments collaborate to fulfill the intent of this program.
Wheelage Tax is a funding source derived by the collection of fees directly related to the registration of
vehicles. This revenue is dedicated for pavement preservation projects within the county.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT
, along with its respective staff, worked diligently to produce a document that is
both practical and insightful about the underlying capital needs of the county and its communities. Each year, the
Office of Administration, under the direction of the Washington County Board of Commissioners, facilitates the effort
to administratively update this five-year plan.
The proposed Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is released to communities for their review and comment in October.
The final CIP is presented to the Board of Commissioners for adoption following a public hearing in December.

Park Facilities/Infrastructure Improvement Program
CategoryParks & Land
VariousMultiple
LocationDistrict #
Description
This annual program is for improvements to existing park facilities and infrastructure.
Examples of this program include:
1) Improvements to infrastructure - signage, concrete, pedestrian facilities, play area, parking lot amenities, etc.
2) Improvements to pavement based on the Pavement Condition Index (PCI)
3) Improvements to buildings based on the Facility Condition Index (FCI)
4) Trail development
5) Master Plan development
The program provides funding to serve as a financial match for Park capital improvement projects that include grants that originate from state sales
tax and state bonds. The program also provides a funding source for projects located outside of the Metropolitan Regional Parks System that are
not eligible for state sales tax revenue.
Justification
Infrastructure in the Parks system is nearing or beyond the useful life.
This annual program is necessary to provide the ability to be responsive to smaller projects throughout the year that are not programmed into a
larger capital project.

Total Project Cost:$400,000
Description
This project scope includes improvements to the Big Marine Park Reserve Maintenance Facility. Improvements may include repurposing existing
and adding additional space for staff facilities and equipment storage.
Justification
The Big Marine Park Reserve is an aging structure that was orginally repurposed as a temporary space for county maintenance staff and
equipment. The building is past its service life as maintenance and operation needs have increased. Staff is not able to base maintenance
operations from this site year-round due to the building limitations. Additionally, some equipment is stored outside and exposed to all weather
conditions, thus reducing the utility and lifespan of the equipment. A new maintenance facility campus will provide an opportunity to have a
properly-sized structure that can serve growing park operational needs. Additional office space will also improve staffing capabilities and
efficiency. Funding in 2025 will be used to develop a project scope and design for the new maintenance facility area. Funding for construction will
be needed in following years. This project was identified as a top priority in the Long Range Facility Study.

Total Project Cost:$1,430,000
Description
This project includes improvements to the Lake Elmo Park Reserve Maintenance Facility. Improvements may include repurposing existing and
adding additional space for staff facilities and equipment storage.
Justification
The current maintenance facility was constructed in the mid-1980's and has not received significant upgrades or additions as park maintenance and
operation needs have increased. Some equipment is stored outside and exposed to all weather conditions, thus reducing the utility and lifespan of
the equipment. Improvements to the maintenance facility campus will provide an opportunity to have a properly sized structure that can serve
growing park operational needs. Additional office space is needed to improve staffing capabilities and efficiency.
The current budget does not address the funding needed to reconfigure existing silo/farm storage facility site. This project was identified as a top
priority by the Long Range Facility Study.

Total Project Cost:$823,000
Description
The project scope includes replacement of a controlled outlet structure located in the Farney Creek Dam within the Lake Elmo Park Reserve.
Justification
Farney Creek flows into the western side of Lake Elmo Park Reserve from the City of Oakdale. The creek ultimatly flows into Eagle Point Lake,
located within the park. In the 1980s, as part of an areawide flood management project, an earthen dam was constructed within the park that
controls the flow from the creek into the lake. In spring 2020, it was discovered that a large portion of the dam had washed out due to a failing 36"
corrugated metal pipe. The pipe needs to be replaced, requiring reconstruction of a large portion of the dam.

St. Croix Bluffs Regional Park Boat Launch Area
CategoryParks & Land
St. Croix Bluffs4
LocationDistrict #
Total Project Cost:$1,000,000
Description
The project scope includes improvements at St. Croix Bluffs Regional Park boat launch area. Improvements may include:
1) Remove and replace the bottom portion of the boat launch with cast-in-place concrete
2) Reinforce the bottom of launch to prevent future scouring from power loading boats
3) Dewater and dredge the harbor
4) Replace and improve accessibility of the fishing pier
Justification
St. Croix Bluffs Regional Park provides public access to the nationally-recognized wild and scenic St. Croix River via the boat launch.
Improvements need to be made to improve the functionality of the launch area.
The bottom of the existing boat launch has a steep slope that is susceptible to erosion and has been scoured from users power-loading their boats.
When water levels are low, users have a hard time launching their boats with this steep slope and boat trailers are bottoming out causing damage to
trailers and axles.

Description
This program is designed to purchase park land and fee title or partial interest in the form of a conservation easement on key parcels consistent
with criteria adopted in the county's "Acquisition of Development Rights Ordinance" and for the purposes specified in the 2006 ballot referendum
on the preservation of water quality, woodlands, and other natural areas.
Justification
The referendum on the preservation of water quality, woodlands, and other natural areas passed with 61 percent of the voters supporting the
measure. The vote authorized the county to issue general obligation bonds in one or more issues in an amount not to exceed $20 million to acquire
and improve land and interests in land for the purposes of: improving water quality of rivers, lakes, and streams; protecting drinking water sources;
purchasing parklands; preserving wetlands and woodlands; and protecting land along water bodies from development.

Description
The project scope includes planning for replacement and enhancement of air-handling equipment in the original spaces in the Courthouse. The mechanical systems
include air handling units that distribute tempered air through ductwork to Variable Air Control (VAV) boxes within work spaces. Many of the air handling units in
the Courthouse were not addressed during the Campus 2025 Expansion project and are original to the old Courthouse building.
Justification
Air-handling equipment at the Courthouse is orginal to the old areas of the Courthouse and have been extended past its useful life due to proper maintenance and
care. As the systems continue to age, they become more susceptible to costly emergency failures. Expected life cycles of air-handling units are 20-25 years. At the
time of replacement, many of these units will be more than 30 years old.

Description
The project scope includes improved public customer service counter interaction with Sheriff's Office staff, rehabilitate and remodel staff work areas to improve
workflow. The project will replace original 1992 construction items, such as carpet, lighting, paint, and furniture, as well as energy-efficient and environmentally-
friendly items like LED lighting.
2025 Project will continue to address the large backlog of needs in the building as identified in the 2019 Law Enforcement Center Master Plan.
Justification
The facility condition index was used to determine the project list and prioritize based on the greatest need. Carpet typically has a life cycle of 7-10 years; however,
proper maintenance allowed the carpet to last longer than the typical life cycle. The facility condition index determined that the LEC has the greatest need.
The lighting and office furniture are also well beyond their useful life and need to be replaced. The office lighting is old technology and energy inefficient.
Mechanical systems are nearing the end of their useful life and are in need of replacement prior to catastrophic failures occuring.

Description
The project scope includes replacement of detention door hardware in the jail.
Justification
Detention door hardware throughout the jail is original to the building and has received heavy usage since the building opened in 1993. As the hardware ages,
mechanical failures occur more frequently, requiring extensive repair time by staff.
The age and heavy use of the detention door hardware in the jail has lead to mechanical failures. As the hardware fails and is in need of repair, the cell must be
taken out of use, thus providing less space for officers to house inmates.
The project was identified as a top priority by the Long Range Facility Study.

Description
The project scope includes:
1) Replacement of the building automation system, which controls the heating, ventilation, and cooling (HVAC) systems within the building, with the current
countywide system. The 2025 project will include replacement of air conditioning system (chiller, piping, pumps).
2) Repair of roof cupolas by installing new trim, sealants and insulation. Staff and design team will evaluate and determine the most effective repair strategy.
Justification
The Oakdale Library has the second highest energy use intensity rating of all county buildings. It was constructed in 1996 and the building automation system was
also installed at that time. Building automation systems have a typical life expectancy of 15-20 years and replacement parts are becoming increasingly difficult to
obtain.
The exterior envelope assessment performed in 2012 identified the trim, window sealants and insulation as needing to be replaced in the cupolas. The sealants for
all the windows in the library also need to be removed and replaced. This project was recommended by a consultant be completed within 2-4 years of the report.
The chiller in this building is original and is past its useful life. Maintenance on the old equipment is difficult and costly.

Description
The project scope includes an annual program for intersection control upgrades determined to be needed, but not incorporated as part of a larger roadway
improvement project.
Projects under this program would typically be individually identified and programmed through the County's Intersection Control Ranking System (ICRS).
This program assumes one intersection improvement is programmed per year at a cost of $420,000.
Justification
High-level intersection controls (roundabouts and traffic signals) may be constructed at county highway intersections meeting criteria set forth in the County
Intersection Control Ranking System.
The county proactively plans for the installation of intersection controls to improve the safety and efficiency of traffic flow on the County Highway System. The
annual Intersection Control Ranking System determines the priority of these installations.
The number of projects programmed varies depending on actual budget funding, the availability of matching funds, unforeseen development, or intersection safety
problems.

Description
The project scope includes an annual program for mitigation of safety or traffic-capacity problems. Examples of solutions include:
1) Turn-lane construction
2) Signal-timing studies
3) Flasher installations
4) Minor curve corrections
5) Pedestrian and trail projects
6) Signing and striping improvements
Justification
This annual program is needed to provide the county with the ability to be responsive to small safety or traffic-capacity problems throughout the year that are not
programmed into a larger capital project.
The county proactively plans for various safety/capacity projects in its budget. Keeping an allotment in the budget for these types of projects eliminates future
safety hazards for vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Proactively improving/reducing safety or traffic-capacity problems is cost-efficient and keeps the potential for
larger expenditures minimal.

1) Seal coating
2) Crack filling
3) Pavement milling
4) Overlays
5) Hot and cold-in-place recycling
6) Pavement reclaim
7) Full-depth reclamation

1) CSAH 18 - 300' S of 7th Street to Interstate 94
2) CSAH 3 - Old Marine Trail to County Line
3) Crack sealing and misc. concrete at various locations throughout the County
Justification
These projects are scheduled to interrupt the normal deterioration of highways to extend the pavement life. Pavement condition is measured/calculated annually and
reported as the system-wide Pavement Condition Index (PCI) that assigns a value to each roadway segment on a scale of 1-100, with higher numbers equating to
better pavement condition. Public Works Performance Measures set two goals: 1) system-wide average PCI = 72 or greater, and 2) no roadway PCI should be lower
than 40.

Description
The project scope includes intersection control, including railroad crossing safety improvements, on County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 14 (40th Street North) and
CSAH 24 (Osgood Avenue North) in Baytown Township.
Justification
CSAH 14 and CSAH 24 are minor arterials that serve regional traffic, including trucking and commuter traffic. This area has experienced development, which
warrants necessary improvements. Further, the railroad crossing has high cross-slope elevations, making it difficult for vehicles to cross the tracks at the posted
highway speed.

Description
The project scope includes a grade separated interchange on County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 15 (Manning Avenue North) at the intersection with Trunk
Highway (TH) 36.
Justification
This intersection currently operates as an at-grade intersection controlled by a fully-actuated traffic control signal. Growing traffic demands and safety concerns on
both TH 36 and CSAH 15 justify the need for a grade-separated interchange. An interchange at this intersection is a project that is consistent with the Minnesota
Department of Transportation's goals for the TH 36 corridor.

The project scope includes the following improvements on County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 33 (Everton Avenue):
1) Safety improvements
2) Pavement improvements
3) Surface water management
4) Drainage improvements
5) Pedestrian improvements
6) Congestion management
Justification
CSAH 33 is an important north-south route connecting CSAH 32 (11th Avenue) with CSAH 2 (Broadway Avenue) on the west side of I-35. The Broadway Avenue
Project constructed a freeway overpass over I-35 connecting this roadway with CSAH 32 (11th Avenue). This connection is a regionally important one that has
increased traffic on CSAH 33, resulting in the need to evaluate improvements to this roadway.
The roadway was originally constructed by the City of Forest Lake and jurisdiction was transferred to the county in 2012. The road is constructed primarily on low
land and the local soils are poorly drained. The result is that the current roadway and pavement conditions are in generally poor condition. This important route
also serves commercial and industrial areas and is a heavily used truck route.

3) Drainage improvements, including storm water treatment facilities
4) Intersection control improvement at CSAH 13 and 40th Street and 36th Street
Preliminary design, along with public engagement, was completed with the corridor study and will need to be reviewed due to the fact that there is large-scale
development potential to the west of CSAH 13 that will require coordination. A final project scope, right-of-way acquisition required, and cost estimates will be
refined prior to starting final design. The estimated cost is based on the corridor study.
Justification
CSAH 13 is a north-south minor arterial serving regional traffic in Oakdale and Lake Elmo. Land development in the area continues, including requests for new

Description
The project scope includes the following improvements to County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 15 (Manning Avenue):
1) New CSAH 15 highway segment south of Trunk Highway (TH) 36 which ties into the proposed interchange at Manning & TH 36
2) All necessary drainage and surface water management improvements
3) New regional trail and pedestrian ramp facilities
4) New access locations for proposed developments
This project addresses many regional traffic and safety goals. From a county standpoint, this proposed south segment of CSAH 15 connects Manning Avenue to
Stillwater Boulevard which currently requires access to TH 36. From Minnesota Department of Transportation's (MnDOT) standpoint, this project reduces local
trips on TH 36, where traffic volumes have increased due to the River Crossing project. This project also aids in development potential south of TH 36.
Justification
Coordination with MnDOT, local partners, and developers strengthened the county's goal to complete this gap on the CSAH 15 corridor. The scope and details of
this project have been jointly developed with the cities of Stillwater, Lake Elmo, and Oak Park Heights, as well as with the Stillwater public school district.

The scope of this project will include a feasibility and alignment study for an arterial highway located on the western border of the county within the cities of
Woodbury and Newport.
The analysis will consider an arterial highway connection between the southern terminal at Carver Avenue and County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 18 (Bailey
Road). This study will consider alignments, impacts, and costs.
Justification
County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 25 serves as the border of western Washington County. The southern end of this highway meanders around Carver Lake and
then terminates at Carver Avenue near Bailey Nurseries Farm.
Future land development will require an extended north-south county highway to serve area transportation needs.
This study will help guide all agencies involved with their planning efforts if presented with this proposal.

This section of county highway was re-built in 2003, in conjunction with the Wakota Bridge project lead by the Minnesota Department of
Transportation. Due to right-of-way challenges at the time, this section of highway was built without pedestrian accommodations, which makes it
difficult to connect the trail on CSAH 38 north of this area to the pedestrian bridge over Trunk Highway 10 to the south. There is a desire to
rework this section of highway to provide for a multi-use trail to complete this connection.

Description
The project scope includes the following improvements at the intersection of County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 24 (Osgood Avenue) and Trunk Highway (TH) 36:
1) Disconnect 60th Street access on the west side at CSAH 24
2) Realign and reconstruct frontage road to follow Oren Avenue and 59th Street
3) Roadway drainage and surface water management
4) Pedestrian and bicycle facility improvements,
5) Private and public utility modifications
Justification
The current frontage road T's into CSAH 24 less than 150 feet from the intersection at TH 36, which causes many traffic-related issues. Operations of intersections
like this produce confusion and are unable to provide the storage and operational capacity to handle the many movements intended. The county has successfully
worked with the Minnesota Department of Transportation and the City of Oak Park Heights to reconstruct two other challenging access locations at this intersection.
This project would represent the repair of the final challenging access location at this intersection.

Description
The project scope includes improvements to make all Washington County signalized intersections ready to connect to a new interagency traffic management system.
Depending on the location, its existing hardware, and its proximity to existing fiber optic lines, this connectivity will be accomplished through an assortment of
short fiber optic linkages. The project also includes several cameras for remote intersection monitoring of critical locations in order to quickly diagnose and remedy
any malfunctions. Traffic management software also allows for signal timing to be adjusted remotely to respond to unusual traffic conditions.
Justification
This project proposes to upgrade Washington County traffic signal cabinet hardware to allow for a remote connection to integrate all traffic signals into a central
traffic management system. This will allow for more timely detection of traffic signal malfunctions and outages and allow for faster response times and improved
safety and efficiency.

Description
The project scope includes the following improvements on County State Aid Highway (CSAH) 8 (Frenchman Road) at Oneka Parkway:
1) New signal at CSAH 8 and Oneka Parkway
2) Trail connections and pedestrian ramps improvements
3) Roadway drainage and surface water management
Justification
This project provides an upgrade to an intersection that was originally built to accept this modification once development and increased traffic deemed it necessary.
This intersection is ranked near the top of the county's Intersection Control Ranking System. The scope and details of this project will be developed jointly with the
City of Hugo.
Development has increased along CSAH 8 near Oneka Parkway in Hugo. A recent development improved and expanded the south leg of this intersection, which
was a driveway previously. CSAH 8 was built as a four-lane divided highway in 2006 and at that time Oneka Parkway was identified as an appropriate access
location. Since then, both the north and south leg have developed, making it a full four-way intersection.

Description
The scope of this project includes design, right-of-way acquisition, and construction of the Gold Line Bus Rapid Transit (BRT). This will be Minnesota’s first BRT
line in a dedicated guideway. It will provide all-day transit service in both directions between Saint Paul, Maplewood, Landfall, Oakdale, and Woodbury every 15 to
30 minutes.
Justification
There are seven milestones in developing and delivering a transit way recognized by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA):
1) Pre-project development/Alternative Analysis
2) Locally Preferred Alternative Amended in the Metropolitan Council Transportation Policy Plan (TPP)
3) Draft Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Assessment
4) Project development
5) Engineering
6) Construction
7) Open for service
In our region, counties lead the first three steps in developing a transit way. This work for Gold Line BRT has been funded through annual appropriations by the
Washington and Ramsey County Regional Rail Authorities and annual grants from CTIB. Project Development (Step 4) began in January 2018 with approval from
FTA. At this time, the project transitioned to the State of Minnesota. The approximate timeframe and Washington County contributions to the remaining phases are
as follows:
1) Project development - $8.5 million (2018 - 2019). This amount was reflected in previous years Capital Improvement Plan.
2) Engineering - $16,736,700 (2020-2021)
3) Right-of-way - $18,602,000 (2020-2021)
4) Construction - $76,680,600 (2022-2024)
5) Open for service (2024)
Gold Line BRT total estimated costs are $461.9 million, of which Washington County’s share is 26.1% or $120.5 million as detailed above. Remaining funding
partners include the FTA (45%) and Ramsey County (26%).
