Residential Streets by Walter M. Kulash
ULI-the Urban Land Institute, in partnership with the National Association of Home Builders, the American Society of Civil Engineers, and the Institute of Transportation Engineers.
Updated throughout, the third edition of Residential Streets takes a practical approach to planning and designing streets that is cost effective, and that enhances the livability of subdivisions and master-planned and new urbanist communities. It offers a fresh look at street widths, geometrics, traffic flow, and other design considerations, as well as intersections, drainage systems, and pavement. Solidly endorsed by traffic engineers and in compliance with the requirements of state highway officials, the book provides street designs that can save on land costs, reduce the environmental impacts of runoff, provide a marketing advantage, and win approval. It will be useful to developers, builders, designers, and local officials who wish to create streets in residential communities that encourage walking and bicycling and that discourage speeding by through traffic.
