Street Typologies

traveled ways to support movement of farm equipment and freight. These other modes may include: Freight - Freight traffic normally on Rural Other type roads, especially large trucks may require additional travel lane width. On designated multilane truck routes, one travel lane, preferably the outside travel lane in each direction, should be 12 feet wide. Not all roads are designated truck routes. Farm Equipment - On roadways where farm equipment is expected frequently, consider including eight-foot-wide shoulders, or include pull-offs to allow faster-moving traffic to pass the farm equipment. Near a Rural Activity Center, such as Lutz Lake Fern Trailhead, Alafia River State Park, or Little Manatee River State Park or Neighborhood, visitors may arrive on foot or bike. Those residents that are part of the agricultural workforce may travel on private buses, walk or bike to pick up spots, or walk or bike from rural housing near their workplaces.
