Local Streets

  • Narrow streets (30’±) roadway width
  • Traffic calming opportunities
  • Create greener streets with new street tree plantings
  • Neckdowns wherever feasible
  • Improve wayfinding signage for pedestrians and bikes

Major Streets/Arterials

  • Often major pedestrian routes
  • Often major bus and truck routes
  • Often major bike routes
  • Handles both through and local traffic
  • Wide (60’±) roadway width
  • Opportunities for green corridors (planted medians, pedestrian spaces,

etc.)

  • Traffic calming opportunities
