5.0 IntroductionThe following guidelines reflect standards for all street

types identified, including: Boulevards, Village Center

Streets, and Residential Streets.

5.1 Local Streets

The concept for the local street system is a “soft” grid of

curving streets that lead to the lakes. Connected streets

rather than cul de sacs will be provided (unless specific site

or environmental conditions prevent connections). In

addition, the softly curving geometry creates a unique

neighborhood identity, relates to the round lake forms and

terminates street vistas.

Paired with the park and lake boulevards, the curving local

streets create a transportation framework that is easy to

understand, link surrounding neighborhoods, and connect

all neighborhoods to the parks and lakes. The actual

geometry of these streets may change.

5.2 On-Street Parking

Streets will provide on-street parking. Parallel parking is

proposed for most streets, diagonal parking is proposed

for Main Street within the Village Center. On streets with

diagonal parking, bump-outs or other methods should be

established at intersections to reduce the distance

necessary for pedestrian crossings.

5.3 Sidewalks

In residential areas, sidewalks shall be a minimum of 5 feet

in width. Sidewalks in commercial areas shall provide a

minimum of 8' of walking clearance and generally range

from 15'-22' in width.

Handicap access shall be provided on all approaches at all

intersections and at all pedestrian crossing areas.

On Village Center Streets and the Boulevards, sidewalks

will be installed at the same time as the roadway. On

Residential Streets, sidewalks will be installed as

neighborhoods are developed. Sidewalks will be provided

to connect residential neighborhoods to the Great Park

System and the Village Center.

5.4 Street Lighting

Historic light fixtures provided by the Orlando Utilities

Commission (OUC) are proposed for the N.T.C.

Redevelopment Project to match existing lights in the

older Orlando neighborhoods. An aluminum-fluted pole

with a flared base and acorn lights is proposed. The pole

and fixture housing will be painted black to be consistent

with the current city practice.

The following hierarchy of street lighting is proposed:

• Boulevards should use single acorn lights of 100-watt

high-pressure sodium lamps and a mounting height of

±15 feet with a spacing of 100-150 feet. An average

illumination level should be 0.5 foot-candles.

• Village Center Core Streets should utilize double acorn

lights of 100-watt high-pressure sodium lamps and a

mounting height of ±15 feet with a spacing of 60-75

feet. An average illumination level should be 1.0 foot-

candles. An integrated street lighting design shall

incorporate storefront lighting into the lighting concept

for Main Street.

• Village Center - General Streets (refer to Residential

Streets below).

• Residential Streets should utilize single acorn lights of

100-watt high-pressure sodium lamps with light shields

and a mounting height of ±15 feet. The lights should

be staggered at 100-150 feet with lights at the block

ends. An average illumination level should be 0.5 foot-

candles at intersections.

• Alley Lanes should utilize standard OUC street lights to

be more functional than decorative. The lamps should

be 100-watt high-pressure sodium and a mounting

height of ±15 feet. The lights should be located at the

street intersections and mid blocks.

5.5 Street Furnishings

Benches, trash receptacles, and other street furnishings will

be provided in the Village Center, Neighborhood Centers,

and neighborhood parks.

5.6 Traffic Calming

“Traffic Calming” is a term used to describe the slowing of

vehicular speeds and in some cases, the reduction in traffic

volume along certain streets. Speed may be controlled or

influenced by a number of measures. The following traffic

calming methods will be incorporated during the

Neighborhood Plan process where needed:

• on-street parking

• change in street surface texture or material

• optical street width reduction such as street trees,

median plantings, paving patterns, street lights and

street furniture

• stop signs

• pedestrian operated signals at crossings

• clear signage

Additional methods which may be used include:

• traffic circles

• roundabouts

5.7 Street Trees

On Boulevards and Village Center Streets, trees will be

installed when the streets are built. On Residential Streets,

trees will be installed as neighborhoods are developed. The

selection of tree species should coincide with the native

tree types used on Orlando streets. Use of palm trees

should be limited to concentrated groupings at building

entries and as decorative accents in the landscape.

Refer to Appendix G for additional landscape and

vegetation standards.

5.8 Median Planting

Median plantings will contrast with the formal rows of

street trees. The median plantings will provide seasonal

color and act as a buffer between traffic lanes. The plant

material includes a mixture of shade and ornamental trees

and shrubs in varying sizes. All plants will be at a clear

distance from the intersection as required by the City of

Orlando to minimize driver and pedestrian sight line

conflicts.

Refer to Appendix G for additional landscape and

vegetation standards.

5.14 Trip GenerationThe attached table shows that the refinement of the landuse plans continues to reduce the total impact from traffic.All trip generation is based on trip generation rates fromthe Institute of Transportation Engineers, 6th Edition.

The 1986 base condition of the Orlando Naval TrainingCenter was 49,800 vehicle trips per day. The Vision Plangenerated approximately 75,473 daily trip ends, an increaseover the base condition of 52%. The land use plansubmitted as part of the Planned Development

Application generates an estimated 60,868 to 62,144vehicle trips per day. The range is listed because the swinguse is, currently defined as either multi-family or office.The high end results from the office use. The PlannedDevelopment land use concept results in a trip reductionbetween 17.7% and 19.4% from the Vision Plan.

A detailed set of charts have been included at the end ofthis chapter, illustrating in detail trip generation and trafficforecasting comparisons.

5.15 Transit AnalysisSeveral years ago, Lynx discontinued its service throughthe base. Lynx currently provides transit service in the areawith two existing routes. Both route 13 and 23 skirt theperimeter of the base. Each travels down LakemontAvenue, Glenridge Way and General Rees. The routes splitat Corrine Drive.

All of the major streets will be designed to accommodatecity buses or other type of rubber tired transit vehicle. TheOrlando Growth Management Plan also calls for transitcirculators to operate in activity centers throughout thecity. The property will be designed and developed to

accommodate a future circulator system.
