i~ <br />1i4 <br />r,l <br />lilt: ; <br />called a "queueing street," this street type is intended for two-way traffic. When two vehicles meet on a <br />queueing street, one of the vehicles must yield by pulling over into a vacant portion of the adjacent <br />parking lane. The Access Lane is the only local street type to allow both curbside and setback sidewalks. <br />As part of its review of the September 1995 Draft Eugene Local Street Plan, the Planning Commission <br />asked that consideration be given to alternatives to location of street trees within a planting strip for <br />Access Lanes in order to minimize public right-of-way requirements for this street type. <br />LOW-VOLUME RESIDENTIAL STREET: This street is designed for primary access to individual <br />residential property as well as access to adjacent streets. As for the Access Lane, the residential environ- <br />ment is dominant. Traffic volumes are relatively low (250-750 ADT) with a design speed of 20 mph. <br />This street type can be designed with one or two travel lanes. A low 20' paving width is allowed with two <br />10' travel lanes and no on-street parking; 21' and 28' paving widths are allowed in the "queuing" designs <br />providing a single 14' travel lane with one or two 7' parking lanes. Setback sidewalks are required on <br />both sides of Low-Volume Residential Streets. A center median is also allowed as a design option for the <br />Low-Volume Residential Street, but the street must be designed to provide the minimum 14' clear lane <br />needed for fire apparatus. <br />MEDIUM-VOLUME RESIDENTIAL STREETS: This street is designed for primary access to <br />individual residential property, to connect streets of lower and higher function, and to access the major <br />street network. These streets are designed to accommodate higher traffic volumes (750-1,500 ADT) with <br />a design speed of 25 mph. <br />36 EUGENE LOCAL STREET PLAN <br />298 <br />FIGURE 18.
