Street Design Manual

3.2.2 C - Neighborhood Street Neighborhood Streets are used primarily in areas serving between 151 and up to 350 residential units, and where residential uses may be compatible with non-residential uses in a mixed-use context. They accommodate on-street parallel parking on both sides and feature two general travel lanes for vehicular use, including automobiles, bicycles, and occasional local transit or freight vehicles. Sidewalks are required on both sides of the street. Traffic calming design elements such as intersection bulb-outs can help to moderate vehicle speeds on Neighborhood Streets. Traffic calming design elements such as intersection bulb-outs and curb extensions/bump-outs can help moderate vehicle speeds on Neighborhood Streets, which are conducive to use of GSI practices including curbside bioretention, bioretention in bulb-outs and/or curb extensions, and permeable pavement sidewalks.
