Street Typologies
Table 3-4 -Typology Identification: Urban General (C4)
Typical Future Land Uses
Predominant Building Form and Use Mix Single-family or multi-family dwellings fronting the street. Multi- level buildings should have rear or side-street access but predominantly constructed as apartment complexes accessing the street via one or two driveways. May include some neighborhood-scale commercial uses. If street is fronted on only one side by these conditions, use Urban Neighborhood Typology. Multi-level buildings built on or near the right-of-way line. Ground floor retail and commercial uses, with residential or office uses above. Any commercial areas, including Regional Commercial, Neighborhood Commercial, collections of individual commercial buildings, and strip commercial. If street is fronted on only one side by these conditions, use Urban Neighborhood Typology.

Review community plans for streets and locations identified as destinations. Review zoning, site development, and building permits to identify unbuilt commercial. If so, use Main Street Typology.

Given the number and expected type of users, each typology includes specific street element recommendations to enable all users by providing the right facilities to connect them to places and services. While the typology is a single illustrative cross-sectional view of the different street elements recommended for consideration, Chapter Five provides the guidance on the connective points (intersections and crossings) to connect mode facilities to adjacent communities. Each of the typologies may have mode-specific treatments that may not be depicted, such as different bicycle or parking facilities that may need to be determined on a block-by-block basis. For each Context (Rural, Suburban and Urban) a summary table is provided identifying user features, travel zones, pedestrian zone, bicycle facilities, transit, traffic calming and speed management, placemaking, access management, and parking for their respective typologies within the Context. The tables are the starting point in selecting appropriate street design characteristics. Table 3-5 summarizes the recommended Target Speeds. Design speeds higher than 35 MPH should not be used in Suburban (C3) or Urban General (C4) contexts, or within Rural Neighborhoods and Rural Activity Centers. The Context Target Speed ranges provided in this document are aligned with national best practices and are different from the FDOT speed
