Princes Beatrixlaan, with cycle tracks on the sides (Kate L)
DO NOT GRADE POR FAVOR!
Recognizability
Homogeneity
Functionality
Function: Flow
-no direct land access
-mostly grade separated
-here rather than elsewhere for vehicular access
Features:
-Protected Intersection
recognizability- large signalized intersection used when there are two major intersecting roads, try to avoid
homogeneity- each mode of transportation has its own signalized cycle and is separate from all other users
-(2) Two-Way Cycle Tracks
recognizability- red asphalt and dashed white center line
homogeneity- completely separated from vehicular traffic by vegetated median
-Underpasses + Overpasses
recognizability- it goes under the road…
homogeneity- allows pedestrians and bikers to avoid vehicular traffic without interrupting flow of traffic
-Pedestrian + Bicycle Crossing Medians
recognizability- white squares and signalized crossing to denote when and where bikes and people can cross (very infrequent on through road)
homogeneity- relies on signal to allow pedestrians and bicyclists to cross one (two?) lanes to reach median before crossing next set
interruption of flow street
extra warnings to counter recognizability
actuated bus lane!
signs to warn drivers of bus crossing… signalized.
no ped. or bikes
NOT recognizable for regular vehicles
jeff photos on flickr look for tags
-Sound Barriers? incentive to keep away from res.
-Exit ramp + ped/biker crossing
not great…
