  • County Highway 5 (Olive Street) from Deer Path to Owens Street in the City of Stillwater.

Proposed Improvements

  • Add pedestrian accommodations. 
  • Resurface roadway.
  • Replace curb and gutter.
  • Replace storm sewer.
  • Replace signs.

Recommended Alternative

Based on feedback from the community, input from agency stakeholders, and our technical analysis, the project team’s recommend alternative (PDF) includes the sidewalk on the north side of the roadway.

Sidewalk on North Side Only typical section

Benefits of this alternative include:

  • Meets the goals of the project, which are to add a sidewalk and replace aging infrastructure (pavement, curb, storm sewer, etc.). 
  • Has the smallest footprint, which helps minimize private property impacts. 
  • Narrows the existing width of the roadway, which helps reduce vehicle speeds.
  • Includes a turf boulevard between the sidewalk and roadway, which improves pedestrian user experience, and provides space for snow storage, utility poles, and highway signs.
  • Maintains parking on at least one-side of the roadway.
