dc.description.abstract | Walkable neighborhoods with adjacent commercial centers have the ability to encourage mode shifts to walking, bicycling, or transit. Mode shifts from single-occupancy vehicles (SOV) to the destinations within a neighborhood center of Elmwood's size may result in approximately 3,000 SOV trip reductions per day (H-GAC, 2018). This study examines the Dallas Complete Streets Design Manual (2016) and applies the Dallas Complete Streets Vision to a 1,400 foot (.3 mile) segment of Edgefield Avenue, adapting the guidelines to Edgefield Avenue with site-specific consideration. It refers to the Dallas Complete Streets Design Guidelines in the development of a complete street proposal for Edgefield Avenue. This study consists of an existing conditions review, a site conditions analysis, a community-visioning workshop, and culminates in a streetscape cross-section proposal to address the pedestrian, intersection, and street zones. Recommendations are made for potential sources of funding, and next-steps for the Elmwood Neighborhood Association. | en_US |
