§ 68.401. Street Sections.
Typical cross-sections have been developed for each type of street within Southeast Orlando. These cross-sections shall only be used where Traditional Design land use and building standards are utilized. Each cross section details lane width, medians, bicycle lanes, parking, sidewalks, landscape areas, drainage (rural roadways), and required right-of-way. Not all contingencies have been covered because the list would be far too large. However, cross sections may be modified to accommodate special circumstances. For example, it may not be desirable to have a sidewalk on the side of a roadway fronting a wetland; the appropriate cross section can be developed by deleting the sidewalk from the cross section designed for the particular type of roadway. Such modifications shall be reviewed by all pertinent City departments (Planning, Fire, Police, Solid Waste, Public Works) and must be approved by the City Planning Official and City Engineer.
(a)
Cross Section Types. Cross sections have been developed for arterials (urban and rural), mixed-use center streets (arterial and local), residential neighborhood streets, residential and connector streets, and airport support district streets. Arterials are defined as major high-volume roadways such as Narcoossee Road and Alafaya Trail. Town and Village Center streets should be composed of arterial and local streets. Neighborhood Center streets should be local in nature. Residential Neighborhoods should be comprised of connector and local streets. Residential and commercial connector streets shall provide vehicular connections between residential neighborhoods and commercial centers. Airport Support Districts streets are typically local in nature, but with a lane width and intersection radius sufficient to handle large trucks.
(b)
Specific Requirements for Residential Neighborhoods. Residential neighborhood local streets reflect the options available for three levels of on-street parking. Whether there is no on-street parking, limited on-street parking or unlimited on-street parking shall be determined by presence or absence of one- or two-car garages and the resulting driveway width. The specific roadway cross-section shall be determined at the time of site plan review based on the proposed unit types fronting the roadway.
The core cross sections referenced above are summarized in the following table. In addition, the City has developed illustratives of these road cross-sections, which can be found in the Southeast Orlando Sector Plan-Development Guidelines and Standards illustrated guidebook. This guidebook is available for review/purchase in the City Planning Department.
