7 PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF THE COMPLETE STREETS GUIDE The purpose of this chapter is to assist street design professionals in applying the guide on actual streets in Hillsborough County. Photo-realistic corridor visualizations are used to demonstrate the application of Complete Streets principles at select locations along two corridors, illustrating multimodal and safety best practices tailored to the community and Context Based Classification. The Guide does not hold the designer to a rigid system of elements that must be installed, instead it provides a palette of choices based on the desired outcomes and right-of-way available to implement the chosen treatments. The practical application of the Complete Streets Guide is demonstrated on two distinctly different corridors in unincorporated Hillsborough County. These corridors are: 1. South 78th Street, Causeway Boulevard to East Adamo Drive Context Based Classification: Urban General, C4 2. Symmes Road, US 41 to I-75 Overpass Context Based Classification: Suburban Residential, C3R
