Corey.
A
So
again
we're

to
review
one.
What
what
is
the
existing
conditions
for
southwest
11th
street
we're
going
to
discuss
the
background
for
the
project,
give
an
overview
and
also
and
then
then
show
what
the
improvements
are
that
we're
proposing
then
talk
about
schedule,
next
steps,
and
as
mentioned
before,
I
will
do
a
question
question
and
answer
period
next:
five,
please
so
again
we're
here
here
tonight
to
talk
about
southwest
11th
street,
that
is
from
martin
luther
king
jr,
parkway
south
down
to
dart
way.
A
This
is
this
is
kind
of
south
southwest
of
downtown
and
so
there's
a
lot
of
development
occurring
around
this
street,
as
you
know,
as
as
you
may
be
aware.
So
this
is
kind
of
this
is
our
limits
and
our
where
our
focus
is
tonight.
The
next
slide,
please,
you
can
see
here's
just
some
photographs
of
the
existing
conditions.
As
you
see
it,
it
is
currently
southwest.
11Th
street
is
a
three-lane
roadway.
A
That's
one
travel
lane
in
each
direction,
north
and
south
and
there's
a
was
what's
called
as
a
bi-directional
left
turn
lane
that's
down.
The
center
is
a
third
lane,
and
then
we
have
often
parking
as
you
can
see,
in
the
photo
on
the
right
on
on
on
both
sides
of
the
street.
So
so
with
that
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna
turn
it
over
to
cory
corey.
If
you
can
explain
kind
of
take
it
from
here
and
talk
about
the
background
overview.
B
Sure,
thanks
steve
again,
I'm
corey
bogenry
principal
traffic
engineer
with
the
city
of
des
moines
and
I'll
just
start
off
with
a
little
bit
of
background
on
the
project
or
how
we
got
to
where
we're
at
us.
The
the
city
looking
at
at
this
street
really
started.
You
know
a
few
years
ago
with
some
of
the
development
with
gray's
station
and
gray's
landing
and
in
so
in
2017.
B
We
completed
a
traffic
impact
study
for
really
this
whole
area,
that's
kind
of
shaded
and
gray,
and
with
some
of
the
changes,
different
proposals
as
part
of
this
development,
there's
been
some
subsequent
studies.
So
the
first
subsequent
study
really
focused
on
southwest
11th
street
and
around
2018.
The
city
was
completing
a
downtown
walkability
study
called
connect
downtown
and
that
project,
as
well
as
move
dsm.
Our
transportation
master
plan
recommended
southwest
12th
coming
out
of
downtown
and
then
southwest
11th
as
a
core
bike
network
bike
network
facility.
B
So
as
part
of
that,
and
as
a
supplement
to
that
original
gray
station
study
we
created,
or
we
completed
a
study
on
southwest
11th
street
as
there's
been
more
proposals
with
the
former
dico
site.
With
the
kraus
development's
proposed
soccer
stadium,
district
we've
actually
supplemented
the
original
study,
and
you
know
just
want
to
make
sure
that
everything
that's
developed,
that
our
street
network
can
handle
the
traffic
and
that
you
know
we're
we're
building
this
out
in
a
smart
and
make
sure
that
we're
planning
for
the
future,
and
so
with
all
these
studies.
B
This
red
box
kind
of
shows,
you
know
our
project
limits
and
southwest
12th
north
of
here
there's
been
some
work
happening
this
past
year
and
we're
hoping
it
would
get
done
this
year.
But
it's
looking
like
next
spring.
It
will
be
re-striped
to
include
buffered
bike
lanes
down
to
the
martin
luther
king,
jr
parkway
intersection.
B
You
also
have
the
shared
use
path
on
the
south
side
of
the
martin
luther
king
junior
parkway
trail
on
tuttle
street
there's,
currently
a
cycle
track
being
constructed.
So
on
the
the
south
side,
it's
basically
a
bike,
only
facility,
that's
raised
in
and
off
the
street,
and
that
would
be
extended
to
southwest
16th
as
development
occurs.
B
The
city
also
has
this
down
here
in
the
south.
If
you
can
see
my
cursor
another
cycle
track,
that's
being
developed
as
part
of
the
grace
parkway
street,
and
then
you
also
have
you
know
kind
of
this
connection
down
to
gray's
lake
via
the
chris
and
marcy
coleman
bridge,
and
so
there's
a
lot
of
bicycle
facilities.
So
this
street
really
provides
that
link
to
all
these
different
trails
and
bike
lanes.
B
So
that's
that's
the
general
background
of
the
project
I'm
going
to
get
on
into
what
we're
proposing
and
so
as
as
part
of
our
process
for
determining
you
know,
making
changes
to
a
street.
We
kind
of
have
this
outline
of
of
a
process
where
we
look
at
you
know
what
are
some
of
the
modes
of
transportations:
the
commercial
nodes,
if
there's
important
things
that
we
need
to
consider
and
we
kind
of
go
through
these
steps,
and
so
not
a
lot
of
all
too
interesting
information
here.
B
B
That's
that's
one
of
the
biggest
changes
you'll
see
and
I'm
gonna
walk
through
kind
of
the
details
from
the
north
side
of
the
project
to
the
south.
So
most
of
this
will
be
done
just
with
pavement
markings
and
striping,
so
there
there
will
be
some
construction,
especially
up
here
on
the
north
end
of
the
corridor,
we'll
have
to
widen
out
the
the
the
street
to
the
east,
where
it's
currently
undeveloped
and
we're
doing
that
in
order
to
get
a
left
turn
lane
here,
based
on
the
traffic
study.
B
If
there's
no
left
turn
lane
in
most
of
the
peak
hours,
traffic
would
actually
back
up
quite
a
ways
almost
to
the
tuttle
street
intersection.
So
this
allows
this
intersection
to
operate
similar.
How
it
is
today,
with
the
left,
turn
lane
and
the
through
lane
in
either
direction,
but
it
also
allows
us
to
you
know:
accommodate
the
bike
lane
there's
some
some
minor
relocation
of
some
traffic
signal
equipment,
but
otherwise
it
shouldn't
impact
any
other
utilities
or
disrupt
much
from
a
from
a
property
standpoint.
B
So
you
can
see
here
kind
of
the
typical
cross
section
north
of
tuttle.
You
have
the
10
foot
travel
lanes
with
the
5
foot
bike
lane
and
the
3
foot
striped
buffer,
we'll
also
incorporate
some
green
paint
and
we've
kind
of
standardized
that
for
locations
around
des
moines,
and
so
the
best
example
now
would
be
east
grand
in
the
east
village
on
similar
to
what
the
the
pavement
markings
will
look
like
as
we
move
to
the
south.
B
B
B
From
that
point,
on
we'll
we'll
start
the
design
process
so
actually
preparing
the
construction
plans
and
then
next
fall
about
this
time
next
year,
we'll
be
putting
that
out
for
bid
to
hire
contractor
to
actually
complete
the
work.
This
work
would
occur
as
planned
for
over
the
calendar
year.
2023,
we
don't
have
a
detailed
schedule.
B
C
B
B
It's
really
going
to
be
buffered
bike
lanes
north
of
here
with
a
traveling
in
either
direction.
You
have
a
right
turn
lane
with
the
bike
lane
on
the
inside
of
the
the
the
bike
lane,
one
through
lane
southbound
and
then
a
left
turn
lane,
and
so
these
lanes
will,
with
the
left,
turn
lane
here
as
well.
It
helps
those
lanes
on
the
north
and
south
side
line
up.
We've
also
provided
or
will
be
providing
north
of
here
in
the
bike.
B
Lane
kind
of
you
know
if
somebody
doesn't
feel
comfortable,
actually,
there's
not
enough
width
to
have.
You
know
this
space
buffered
from
those
travel
lanes,
so
we're
kind
of
providing,
I
guess,
for
lack
of
better
term
like
an
off
ramp.
So
somebody
you
know
with
a
wide
10
foot
sidewalk
somebody
who
doesn't
feel
comfortable
coming.
B
A
B
A
From
my
my
experience,
it
seems
like
you
could
more
than
triple
that
in
a
two-lane
road
would
function,
just
fine
and
and
so
so
that's
why
these
improvements
are
are
critical.
Also,
you
talked
earlier
about
the
improvements
on
12th
street.
You
know
this
is
a.
This
is
a
gap
in
our
our
bicycle
network.
We're
excited
because
we've
got
if
we,
if
we
can
work
on
this,
get
this
gap
improving
12th
street
to
add
buffered
bike
lanes.
A
Many
folks
may
recall
that
you
know
cherry
street
was
recently
improved
to
add
bike
lanes.
We're
also
have
a
project
upcoming,
very
soon
fifth
avenue,
which
will
be
improving
to
add
buffered
bike
lanes
and
then
also
improving
grand
avenue
between
fifth
and
third,
which
would
which
would
connect
us
to
east
to
east
grand
in
the
east
village,
and
so
we're
connecting
some
major
making.
A
Some
major
connections
here,
filling
in
some
big
gaps
connecting
quite
frankly,
are
downtown
with
trail
systems
that
have
hundreds
of
thousands
of
users
a
year.
So
so
this
is
a
huge
connection,
filling
in
a
gap
here
and
with
with
you
know
that
that
works
from
all
the
different
traffic
models.
That's
been
done
with
all
the
future
projected
development,
so.
B
Yep
yeah
and
as
you
you
mentioned,
you
know
only
about
4
000
vehicles
currently
and
and
just
to
give
some
context.
East
grand,
which
has
a
similar
cross
section,
I
think,
has
over
10
000
vehicles
a
day.
So
so
you
know
and
that
operates
you
know
perfectly
fine.
One
thing
I
do
want
to
point
out
if,
like
steven
mentioned,
we
are
recording
this
so
we'll
have
a
web
page
with
this
recording
and
all
the
information
on
the
project.
B
B
C
C
B
C
So
both
cory
for
you
and
steve,
I
think
that's
it's
it's
been
often
talked
about
and-
and
there
hasn't
been
any
action
yet
on.
I
know
there's
a
challenge
with
some
on-street
parking,
but
I
I
bet
some
good
heads
could
figure
out
how
to
overcome
that.
So
yep
and
it'd
be
nice
to
hear
josh
to
speak
on
this
also
josh.
D
I
I
guess,
might
I
I
don't
know
that
I
have
the
specific,
but
I
would
support
the
the
option
that
you
were
talking
about,
or
I
mean
I
think
we
want
that
connectivity
and
this
particular
project
is
a
piece
of
that
connectivity
for
downtown
residents,
and
we
know
that
we
still
have
gaps
nearby,
that
that
we
can
work
on
addressing.
So
I
I
would.
C
E
I
do
have
a
question,
so
I
am
a
resident
of
cityville
in
the
building,
that's
right
along
southwest
9th
and
murphy.
What
is
this
going
to
do
as
far
as
impacting
market
rates,
for
what
we're
paying
here
with
the
roads
you're
going
to
be
closed,
like
the
noise
is
insane
with
all
the
construction?
That's
going
on
for
those
of
us
that
work
at
home
so
like?
What's
that
going
to
look
like
with
the
length
of
time
that
that's
going
to
be
impacting
things.
B
I
I
would
imagine
you
know,
obviously
with
any
any
project.
You
know
the
the
impacts.
Are
you
know,
there's
there's
going
to
be
some
level
of
noise
and
an
impact
I
think
for
this
one
specifically,
though
it
should
hopefully
be
to
a
minimum,
because
you
know
we're
not
reconstructing
the
entire
street.
You
know
we
there.
There
is,
you
know
some
widening
and
and
sidewalk
work
that
can
be
done
here
and
then
obviously
the
the
traffic
signal
here.
B
But
I
wouldn't
you
know
it's
not
like
the
street's
gonna
be
closed
for
you
know,
months
on
end
and
being
reconstructed
reconstructed,
it
should
be
fairly
quick.
Now,
not
everything
will
probably
get
done
all
at
once,
but
you
know
I.
I
think
it
should
be
a
relatively
from
a
noise
and
construction
standpoint.
I
think
relatively
small
compared
to
you
know,
constructing
a
building
or
something.
E
B
B
We've
done
that
and
been
successful
in
other
locations,
specifically
east
grand.
We
did
that
in
a
few
different
chunks,
but
you
know
we
won't
know
the
details
or
how
the
the
contractor
wants
to
do
that
work
until
we
hire
somebody.
So
we
should
have
a
better
idea
kind
of
the
right
before
the
construction
starts
in
the
spring
of
2023.
B
E
A
B
All
right,
yeah
and
again
thank
you
all
for
attending
and
in
in
about
in
less
than
a
week's
time,
we'll
we'll
have
this
recording
and
all
the
information
about
this
project
posted
on
the
city's
website.
So
if
you
have
any
questions,
this
email
address
will
be
available
there,
but
you
can
refer
to
that
and
please,
if
you
think
of
anything
afterwards,
just
send
us
an
email,
we'll
be
happy
to
get
you
an
answer.
A
Yeah
thanks,
thank
you.
Our
council
members,
carl
voss,
josh
mantelbaum.
Thank
you
for
for
joining
us
as
well.
Thank
you
all
the
the
folks
joining
the
meeting
and
taking
your
time
like
I
said
I
know
it's
early.
This
project
doesn't
happen
until
2023,
but
we
we
found
success
in
having
you
know
initiating
public
engagement.
You
know
having
these
early
on
the
phase
and
the
concept
phase,
so
we
can
gather
input
before
we.
We
start
design.
