street width

The recent use of PRDs has allowed neighborhoods to develop with reduced street widths.

The streets still meet the safety requirements for traffic and emergency services and have a number of benefits: less environmental impact in terms of stormwater runoff; traffic calming; and improved visual character.

These streets typically have a reduced width of both driving lanes and parking lanes, and may also have a reduction in on-street parking.
