Design Opportunities for Streetscapes

1. Flex or Shared Street

These streetscape designs place value on embracing placemaking. Streets are transformed from traditional roadways into flexible and programmable spaces with a focus on the pedestrian and cyclist-oriented experience. Typically featuring wider, curbless sidewalks, bicycle lanes and fewer lanes of traffic, the sidewalks and roadways are designed with paving stones to create a plaza-like feel while capable of handling and delineating vehicle and pedestrian spaces. These streetscapes are ideal for expanding businesses into the street and facilitating distance between users.

2. Revitalization and Beautification

Revitalization of streets and roadways are intended to enhance an area’s economic viability, attractiveness and safety. Many streetscape improvement projects create a pedestrian friendly environment using specifically designed strategies with appropriately durable materials and construction methods. Distinction between sidewalks that extend into the street, crosswalks and roadways can be achieved using paving stones delivering extensive design flexibility, aesthetics and the desired long-term performance. The result is a vibrant street, flourishing corridor or shopping district that is inviting and safe.
