This prototype comprises a town street with a total width of 90 feet. This roadway example includes two 12-foot wide travel lanes, two parallel parking lanes (each 9 feet wide), and 12-foot wide sidewalks on both sides. The three planting scenarios chosen for this prototype include the following:
- Provision of large trees (40-foot crown) on both sides of the street spaced at approximately 40 feet (12 trees on each side of a 500-foot long block).
- Provision of small trees (25-foot crown) on both sides of the street spaced at 25 feet (similar to the length of a parallel parking space).
- Provision of 1 large tree (40-foot crown) on both sides of each intersection at the ends of a 500-foot long block (4 trees total for the block).
These planting strategies are shown in the links below.
Urban Downtown Street Scenario #1 - Large Trees on Both Sides of Street
Urban Downtown Street Scenario #2 - Small Trees on Both Sides of Street
Urban Downtown Street Scenario #3 - Large Trees at Street Corners
