2 Street Design Workshop Existing cross section Traffic volumes Examine adjacent land uses You design future improvements

3 Primary Tools for Street Redesign Road diets Bike lanes Cycle tracks Trails Crosswalks On-street parking Roundabouts Traffic circles Curb extensions/bulb outs Medians/crossing islands Streetscape enhancements Bus shelters Lighting

4 4-3 lanes Road Diets

5 Not just for bike lanes Road diets: reclaim street space for other uses

6 Road Diets and Traffic Operations

7 3 crash types can be reduced by going from 4 to 3 lanes: which ones?

8 X 3 crash types can be reduced by going from 4 to 3 lanes: 1 rear enders

9 X 3 crash types can be reduced by going from 4 to 3 lanes: 2 side swipes

10 3 crash types can be reduced by going from 4 to 3 lanes: 3 left turn/broadside X

26 Bike Lanes

27 Cycle Tracks

28 Trails

29 Crosswalks

30 On-Street Parking

31 Roundabouts

32

33 Clearwater FL A roundabout is a type of intersection control

34 A roundabout is not: 1. A New England style rotary, with large size & high speeds Augusta ME

35 A roundabout is not: 2. A Washington DC style circle, with traffic signal controls Washington DC

36 Why roundabouts are safer for all users: Slow speed: Deflection, truck apron, splitter islands, reverse super Reduced conflicts No left turns Yield on entry CRF (all users): About 54% overall 27% pedestrian crashes Up to 76% fatalities and serious injuries

37 Essential roundabout characteristics Separated sidewalks direct peds to crosswalks Splitter island Slow speed exit Truck apron Crosswalk 1 car length back Lots of deflection = slow speeds throughout Slow speed entry = yield Bend OR

38 Constrained entry slows drivers

39 Traffic Circles Can replace 4-way stops And beautify
