City of Eugene - Crest Drive Area Street Classification Process Page 2 <br />Staff Understanding of Neighborhood Input October 18, 2004 <br /> <br /> proceeding with only a set of guidelines; fully developed and adopted CSD standards <br /> are preferred. <br /> i. The neighborhood is willing to work with staff on furthering the development and <br /> application of CSD standards, and might even be interested in having the first CSD <br /> project occur in the Crest Drive neighborhood. <br /> <br /> j. In developing CSD standards, and generating a design solution for Crest Drive streets, <br /> the neighbors would like to start with a focused, comprehensive review of street <br /> improvement requirements (minimums, maximums, required elements, under what <br /> conditions), traffic calming options (what is available, what is not), and alternative <br /> design ideas (including a review of advantages and disadvantages to help make design <br /> decisions). <br /> <br /> k. Regarding design solutions for Crest Drive, neighbors have expressed the following: <br /> <br /> 1) Rebuild existing streets; maintaining their unique, in some cases historical, <br /> character, including: <br /> <br /> Narrow width. <br /> Curving alignment. <br /> · Open drainage. <br /> · Rural, wooded, hillside setting. <br /> <br /> 2) Include traffic calming features <br /> where it makes sense, but not <br /> speed bumps (though speed <br /> tables, such as raised crosswalks <br /> or intersections may be acceptable <br /> in certain situations). <br /> <br /> 3) Look at alternatives to traditional <br /> curb and gutter. Flush curbs, <br /> rolled curbs, intermittent curbs. <br /> Look at non-traditional materials <br /> such as stone.
