Its is the best presentation while you are designing streets or parking in urban areas or in rural areas you should have basic knowledge of urban designing streets and parking Design

2. STREET AND PARKING DESIGN
TRADITIONAL STREET DESIGN:
• Traditional neighborhood streets were narrower and more pedestrian friendly than many modern subdivision
ordinances now permit.
• Many of the most exclusive and desirable communities in the united states feature relatively narrow and
curvilinear street networks not found in new developments.
• The most common reasons given for wide streets are adequate traffic flow, parking, and access for service or
emergency vehicles. However, communities with narrower streets have similar service requirements per dwelling
unit.
• New projects can easily be designed to address both the use of automobiles and the interests of pedestrians

3. STREETS FOR PEOPLE
• . The neighborhood street is a space where automobiles and pedestrians directly compete for use
of the space; local streets, shopping centers, office parks, and public places must serve both
pedestrians and vehicles
• Street designs should address environmental issues such as water and air quality as well as
important factors in the quality of a neighborhood.
• The typical residential streets in new neighborhoods are often separated by wide, overdesigned
cartways that are expensive to build and maintain
• These wide streets encourage excessive speed, increase storm water runoff, increase the price of
new construction, and have higher ongoing maintenance cost
• Uses are for recreation such as walking, bicycle riding, and playing games.
• Mitigating the negative environmental impacts of streets should include issues of comfort, safety,
access, and traffic control, as well as concerns for the physical impacts

8. TRAFFIC CALMING
•Traffic calming refers to the use of design
elements to increase driver awareness and slow
vehicle speeds.
•Traffic calming devices are intended to make
the driver more aware of the road and the
presence of pedestrians and therefore reduce the
number of incidents and accidents.
• Traffic calming devices should be well thought
out and considered before being used in a
design

9. STREET LAYOUT AND ENGINEERING
•Street layout and design must
consider the vehicle, visual
range or limitations of the
operator, safety for vehicle
operators and pedestrians, the
climate, the geometric
configuration, and the character
of the overall area.

10. ESTIMATING TRAFFIC FLOW
•A working estimate of traffic flow is necessary to design local
roads, internal circulation, and the interface with local collectors
•The importance of the estimate of trip generation increases with
the size of the project

13. PARKING AREA DESIGN
•Parking lots can be massive seas of asphalt, contributing to the
degradation of local water quality and to increases in urban heat.

15. PAVEMENT DESIGN
•Pavement materials are usually dictated by local ordinance and are
one of two types: asphalt or bituminous concrete or portland cement
concrete
• The functional difference between the choices lies in how load is
transferred through the material to the subbase
•The design of pavement for most streets is also prescribed by local
ordinance and includes required pavement thickness, materials, and
cross section
•Designers should review local standards prior to incorporating them
into a design
