RESIDENTIAL STREETS--OBJECTIVES, PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

This report is the first of what is hoped will be a series of jointly sponsored and reviewed reports, and is the culmination of over two years of mutual involvement. During this time the content and direction of the report evolved from an initial attempt to create a manual for residential street development complete with design standards for alignments, configurations, and construction details, to this report setting forth objectives, principles, and design considerations. It is hoped this report will provide guidance, for communities of all scales and differing locales, in adopting residential street design and development regulations which are responsive to local conditions in general and specific sites in particular.
