Appendix C (continued) For state roadways, an operational LOS “D” peak hour shall be maintained on all roadways in urbanized areas. State roads in transitioning areas have a LOS “C” standard; rural areas have a LOS “B” standard except for two-lane roads which have a LOS “C” standard. In some cases, the MAX V/C for concurrency management purposes supersedes the general LOS standard. The adopted peak hour minimum LOS for state roads shall be as follows with the exception of state roads identified in Table 5 ( Listing of Volume to Capacity Standards for Backlogged FIHS Roads ) and Table 8 ( Temporary Exceptions to Normal LOS Standards ) of the Transportation Element. LEVEL OF SERVICE STANDARDS FOR STATE ROADS LOS standards inside parentheses apply to general use lanes only when exclusive through lanes exist. (Table 3, page 84, of the Transportation Element of the Future of Hillsborough Comprehensive Plan for Unincorporated Hillsborough County, Florida)
