Background:
The county, in collaboration with the cities of Orono and Long Lake, is leading a roadway reconstruction project along Wayzata Boulevard from Sixth Avenue North to Willow Drive. This is the final phase of the Wayzata Boulevard reconstruction project. Phase one (Willow Drive to Wolf Pointe Trail) was completed in 2018 and phase two (Wolf Pointe Trail to Trunk Highway (TH) 12 ramps) was completed in 2019.
With input from stakeholders and a city appointed project advisory team, community priorities were identified and incorporated into the design. Phase three of the Wayzata Boulevard reconstruction project includes the following improvements:
• Traffic signal system upgrades
• Accessible pedestrian signal and ramp upgrades
• Pavement reconstruction, including turn-lane improvements at key intersections
• Multi-use trail along the north side of the roadway
• Curb, gutter, and storm water structure improvements
In addition, as part of the roadway reconstruction the county will install streetlights in Long Lake at an estimated city cost of $40,000.
The project team will continue to engage the public and will share construction schedules and updates when available. The county will be responsible for delivery of the project with construction planned in 2024.
