  • Sustaining the KCMO Boulevard and Parkway System
    KCMO Boulevard and Parkway System The “Three Legs” Sustaining the KCMO Boulevard and Parkway System KCMO Boulevard and Parkway System History Geometry Land Use Questions What was the purpose of the parks and boulevard system in Kansas City, Missouri? History What are the defining characteristics of a boulevard and a parkway? Geometry What makes them different from an ordinary street or each other? Land Use Perspective History, geometry, and land use are the three things that set our Boulevards & Parkways apart from being “any other street”. The changes requested to the zoning code are a necessary and vital part to the preservation of Kansas City’s Neighborhoods and the Boulevard & Parkway system! History The answers can be found in: a) the 1893 Report of the Board of Park Commissioners; “The Kansas City Park System and Its Effect on the City Plan” by George E. Kessler; b) various Annual Reports to the Board of Commissioners; c) the 1920 booklet “Souvenir” The Park and Boulevard System of Kansas City, Missouri; d) the historic surveys that were completed in 1989 and 1991 and e) the Boulevard and Parkway Standards adopted by Board of Park Commissioners August 28, 2010 History In 1917 Kessler stated: “The boulevards and parkways of Kansas City have accomplished the real purpose outlined by Mr. Meyer in the first report 1893, namely, the tying together all sections and the uniting of Kansas City as a whole into a community whose purposes and actions are for the benefit of the city as a whole at all times.” History Purpose of the Historic Parks, Boulevard & Parkway System Make communication between the different sections of the city, commercial, residential and to some extent industrial direct and distinctive.

  • Definition of Footpath and Road Margin
    Meanings of “footpath” and “road margin” in Land Transport (Road User) Rule 2004 The RURs provide the following definitions 1.6 Interpretation: footpath means a path or way principally designed for, and used by, pedestrians; and ​ includes a footbridge road margin includes any uncultivated margin of a road adjacent to but not forming part of ​ ​ ​ either the roadway or the footpath (if any) The definition of “footpath” encompasses the road space that is principally designed for and used by pedestrians. There is nothing in any of the rules that reference footpath that limits this to paved areas of the pedestrian space. The definition of “road margin” excludes any part of the footpath. The term is only used in RUR 6.2, 11.14 and 11.15. Both 11.14 and 11.15 refer to riders of horses. 11.14 requires horse riders to “when a reasonably adequate road margin is available, keep the animal on ​ the road margin as far as practicable”, but prohibits riding “along a footpath, or on any lawn, ​ ​ garden, or other cultivation adjacent to or forming part of a road”. These words suggest that ​ road margins do not exist on all roads. It appears that the term “road margin” only refers to ​ ​ areas set aside and formed for parking or stopping off the roadway References to “footpath” and “road margin” in other legislation Both terms appear with the same definitions in related legislation: the Land Transport (Offences and Penalties) Regulations 1999 (in a schedule of penalties for breaching rules in the RUR, and the Traffic Regulations 1976 (largely revoked and Replaced by the RUR).

  • Boulevards and Parkways Seattle Open Space 2100 Boulevards + Parkways Diego Velasco
    Boulevards and Parkways Seattle Open Space 2100 Boulevards + Parkways Diego Velasco Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn in 1890 - Jacobs, Macdonald, Rofe, The Boulevard Book, 2002 Photo Jacobs, Macdonald, Rofe, The Boulevard Book, 2002 A multiway boulevard is a “ mixed-use public way that is by its very nature complex” Alan Jacobs, 2002 A boulevard or parkway is a wide urban street with tree-lined sidewalks and often multiple lanes of both fast and slow moving traffic. Boulevards are usually pleasant and grand promenades, flanked by rich, monumental architecture and supporting a variety of street uses. They are often “monumental links between important destina- tions.” 1 More importantly, boulevards can be open space systems that serve multiple functions at once: movement of traffic, provision of green space in the city, relief of congestion in overcrowded areas, accommodation of pedestrians and bicycles, and the nurturing of vital street life and activity in the city. Boulevards date back to the 16th century, when medieval towns abandoned their fortified walls and converted them to tree-lined walkways for public recreation. Cities like Amsterdam and Strasbourg were among the first to develop obsolete ramparts into pleasure promenades. In 1670, Louis XIV abandoned the walls of Paris and replaced these with promenades that served as the parade grounds of aristocrats and the well-to-do. These were also known as cours or allees, such as the Cour de la Reine, which extended alongside the palatial gardens of the Tuileries.1 In the mid-19th to early-20th century, boulevards came to be associated with large- scale planning efforts, such as those of Napoleon III and Baron Haussmann in Paris or City Beautiful movements in the United States.

  • Water Quality Monitoring in the Bayou Teche Watershed
    Water Quality Monitoring in the Bayou Teche Watershed Researchers: Dr. Whitney Broussard III Dr. Jenneke M. Visser Kacey Peterson Mark LeBlanc Project type: Staff Research Funding sources: Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, Environmental Protection Agency Status: In progress Summary The historic Bayou Teche is an ancient distributary of the Mississippi River. Some 3,000-4,000 years ago, the main flow of the Mississippi River followed the Bayou Teche waterway. This explains the long, slow bends of the small bayou and its wide, sloping banks. The Atákapa-Ishák nation named the bayou “Teche” meaning snake because the course of the bayou looked like a giant snake had laid down to rest, leaving its mark on the land. Many years later, the first Acadians arrived in Southwestern Louisiana via Bayou Teche. They settled along its banks and used the waterway as a means of transportation and commerce. The bayou remains to this day an iconic cultural figure and an important ecological phenomenon. Several modern events have reshaped the quality and quantity of water in Bayou Teche. After the catastrophic flood of 1927, the United States Congress authorized the US Army Corps of Engineers to create the first comprehensive flood management plan for the Mississippi River. One important element of this plan was the construction of the West Atchafalaya Basin Protection Levee, which, in conjunction with the East Protection Levee, allows the Corps of Engineers to divert a substantial amount of floodwaters out of the Mississippi River into the Atchafalaya Spillway, and away from major urban centers like Baton Rouge and New Orleans.

  • 9 Public Rights of Way 2 Local Highway Panels (LHP) Members Guide 2021/22
    Local Highway Panels Members’ Guide 9 Public Rights of Way 2 Local Highway Panels (LHP) Members Guide 2021/22 1. Introduction There are 6,320km of Public Rights of Way (PRoW) in Essex, which is one of the most extensive networks in the country. Although PRoW are the lowest category of highway, exactly the same legal principles apply as with all roads and footways: once a highway, always a highway; the status, width and position can only be altered by legal order. The Definitive Map of Public Rights of Way, together with a document called the Definitive Statement, lists the precise location of all PRoWs within Essex. The County Council is responsible for the maintenance and update of the Definitive Map and Definitive Statement. This is divided into Districts and Parishes, with each path being identified by a number which is unique to that Parish. Although the right of way itself is protected and accessible to all, in most cases the surrounding land and the sub-soil of the PRoW will usually be privately owned, and often working farmland. The landowner and possibly others may have private access rights, such as the right to use a tractor or other vehicle on a route. Types of Right of Way There are four types of right of way which have different access rights. Different coloured symbols are used to differentiate between the different types of highway. Footpaths Footpaths represent 84% of the total PRoW network. A footpath is a highway over which the public has a right of way on foot only.

  • 2021 LIMITED ACCESS STATE NUMBERED HIGHWAYS As of December 31, 2020
    2021 LIMITED ACCESS STATE NUMBERED HIGHWAYS As of December 31, 2020 CONNECTICUT DEPARTMENT OF Transportation BUREAU OF POLICY AND PLANNING Office of Roadway Information Systems Roadway INVENTORY SECTION INTRODUCTION Each year, the Roadway Inventory Section within the Office of Roadway Information Systems produces this document entitled "Limited Access - State Numbered Highways," which lists all the limited access state highways in Connecticut. Limited access highways are defined as those that the Commissioner, with the advice and consent of the Governor and the Attorney General, designates as limited access highways to allow access only at highway intersections or designated points. This is provided by Section 13b-27 of the Connecticut General Statutes. This document is distributed within the Department of Transportation and the Division Office of the Federal Highway Administration for information and use. The primary purpose to produce this document is to provide a certified copy to the Office of the State Traffic Administration (OSTA). The OSTA utilizes this annual listing to comply with Section 14-298 of the Connecticut General Statutes. This statute, among other directives, requires the OSTA to publish annually a list of limited access highways. In compliance with this statute, each year the OSTA publishes the listing on the Department of Transportation’s website (http://www.ct.gov/dot/osta). The following is a complete listing of all state numbered limited access highways in Connecticut and includes copies of Connecticut General Statute Section 13b-27 (Limited Access Highways) and Section 14-298 (Office of the State Traffic Administration). It should be noted that only those highways having a State Route Number, State Road Number, Interstate Route Number or United States Route Number are listed.
