Street Design Manual

3.2.6 A - Primary Internal Access Drive The primary internal access drive type can be applied to the main entrances of major developments set back from roads such as malls, corporate offices, and high-volume strip centers. It provides pedestrian and vehicular access as well as design flexibility for future retrofits (such as infill development adjacent to this street). This type is typically applied to a private easement within a property, though may be converted to future public use as part of a grid-reliant infill and redevelopment opportunity. Sidewalks are required on both sides of the street. Primary Internal Access Drives are conducive to use of GSI practices including street trees in grated wells and curbside bioretention, bioretention in curb extensions/bump- outs, and permeable pavement for sidewalks and in parking areas that are not part of the travel lanes.
