Transportation Demand Management: Cities Get Serious About Reducing Car Trips
Ensuring Safe & Comfortable Sidewalks: Getting the Details Right
• Pedestrian safety and comfort on a roadway is influenced by the width and quality of the buffer between the sidewalk and the roadway. Supported by nationally recognized standards, e.g. Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2010, and National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO).
• VTA reviewed 92 total projects in 2015
• Provided pedestrian accommodation comments on 67 projects, of which VTA recommended that 40 projects provide detached, buffered sidewalks.
