Things to consider for regional planning…

Corridor Preservation Corridor preservation is a strategy to assure that the network of highways, roads, and streets will be available now and in the future to serve existing and future development needs. It involves application of various measures to: –Minimize the costs of transportation improvements by early coordination with property owners and local government. –Enhance and maintain efficient traffic flow in existing transportation corridors. –Protect corridors from unnecessary environmental, social and economic impacts. –Reduce the amount of developed property that needs to be purchased.

Functional Classification Functional classification is the process by which streets and highways are grouped into classes, or systems, according to the character of traffic service that they are intended to provide. Arterial Collector Collector Local Local

What do we want the function of the road to be? Higher Mobility Lower Degree of Access Arterial Balance between mobility and access. Collector Lower Mobility High Degree of Access. Local

Future Functional Classification Arterial Arterial

Land Use Create and Maintain efficient infrastructure Ensure close-knit neighborhoods Sense of Community Preserve natural systems Certain land use requires different types of infrastructure to support it Does land use drive transportation or vice versa?

Sprawl: The road to Nowhere… 1 through street at Leonard

Commercial Development isolated from residential neighborhoods

Creating a Sense of Community… …with mixed-use development

Traditional Neighborhood Developments The following are commonly found in TND: Parks, schools, civic buildings, and commercial establishments located within walking distance of homes Residences with narrow front setbacks, front porches, and detached rear garages or alley-loaded parking Network of streets and paths suitable for pedestrians, bicyclists, and vehicles Narrower streets with crosswalks, streetscaping, and other traffic-calming measures In-scale development that fits the local context Buildings oriented to the street with parking behind

Traditional Neighborhood Developments TND is based on the principle that neighborhoods should be: walkable affordable accessible distinctive true to the significant historic context of each community
