One-Way Streets <br />One-way streets differ little in design from other <br />roadway sections that operate as two-way streets. <br />Basic design continuity must be maintained when <br />converting from one to the other to avoid recon- <br />struction costs if the street is converted back to its <br />former pattern. On the other hand, the design <br />standard for one-way streets needs to be somewhat <br />flexible with regard to location of on-street parking <br />and bicycle lanes. Striped bicycle lanes are typi- <br />cally located on only one side of the street; which <br />side must be determined on a case-by-case basis. <br />On-street parking could be located on one or both <br />sides of the street, depending on right-of-way <br />width, traffic volumes, location of bus stops, <br />adjacent land uses, and numerous other factors. <br />_. Typical one-way street designs are illustrated in <br />Figures 55 & 56. <br /> ~ • • ~ ~ Figure 5 5 <br />- <br />. , . ,- .-, <br />, . <br />-, ~ <br />~ <br /> <br />_ o - . <br /> „~ „' <br /> Vehicle Lanes 5' <br /> T Bike ~~~ <br /> <br />6, ~~ <br />Parking , <br />Lane Planting 6 <br />** <br />Planting Strip <br />Sidewalk* <br />Sidewalk* Strip** <br /> 34' <br /> Cu rb to Curb <br /> 66' <br /> Rig ht-of-Way <br />"Setback sidewalk dimension includes 5' paved sidewalk and 1' reserve strip behind the walk <br />MR planting strip dimension includes 6" curb <br />113 <br />
