Book excerpt: "The 'Guide to road design -- Part 6A: pedestrian and cyclist paths' provides guidance for road designers and other practitioners on the design of paths for safe and efficient walking and cycling. The guide provides a brief introduction to planning and the need for a path, describes the types of path and covers the requirements of path users. However, the main focus of Part 6A is the geometric design of paths and related facilities ... Detailed guidance is provided on path location, alignment, width, clearances, crossfall, drainage and sight distance requirements."--Summary, preliminary p.
Download or read book Shared Use Routes for Pedestrians and Cyclists written by Great Britain. Department for Transport and published by Stationery Office/Tso. This book was released on 2012-09-18 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shared use routes are designed to accommodate the movement of pedestrians and cyclists. This Local Transport Note (LTN) 1/12 focuses on routes within built-up areas where the predominant function of the route is for utility transport, and where use by pedestrians and cyclists is likely to be frequent. Shared use schemes require careful consideration. It provides advice on their planning, design and provision; suggests a scheme development process to help in deciding whether shared use is appropriate for any given situation; stresses the importance of high-quality inclusive design that addresses the needs of all users; places particular emphasis on involving users, residents and other stakeholders in the design process. This LTN 1/12 supersedes LTN 2/86 Shared Use by Cyclists and Pedestrians (ISBN 9780115507830). It should be read in conjunction with LTN 2/08 Cycle Infrastructure Design (DfT, 2008) and Inclusive Mobility - A Guide to Best Practice on Access to Pedestrian and Transport Infrastructure (DfT, 2002).

Download or read book Urban Street Design Guide written by National Association of City Transportation Officials and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NACTO Urban Street Design Guide shows how streets of every size can be reimagined and reoriented to prioritize safe driving and transit, biking, walking, and public activity. Unlike older, more conservative engineering manuals, this design guide emphasizes the core principle that urban streets are public places and have a larger role to play in communities than solely being conduits for traffic. The well-illustrated guide offers blueprints of street design from multiple perspectives, from the bird’s eye view to granular details. Case studies from around the country clearly show how to implement best practices, as well as provide guidance for customizing design applications to a city’s unique needs. Urban Street Design Guide outlines five goals and tenets of world-class street design: • Streets are public spaces. Streets play a much larger role in the public life of cities and communities than just thoroughfares for traffic. • Great streets are great for business. Well-designed streets generate higher revenues for businesses and higher values for homeowners. • Design for safety. Traffic engineers can and should design streets where people walking, parking, shopping, bicycling, working, and driving can cross paths safely. • Streets can be changed. Transportation engineers can work flexibly within the building envelope of a street. Many city streets were created in a different era and need to be reconfigured to meet new needs. • Act now! Implement projects quickly using temporary materials to help inform public decision making. Elaborating on these fundamental principles, the guide offers substantive direction for cities seeking to improve street design to create more inclusive, multi-modal urban environments. It is an exceptional resource for redesigning streets to serve the needs of 21st century cities, whose residents and visitors demand a variety of transportation options, safer streets, and vibrant community life.
