For contexts that will maintain low residential densities and modest Suburban commercial, a focus on higher speed may be appropriate.

For areas with potential for General Urban and higher (T4-T6), ITE recommends slower streets with narrower lanes as per best practices for Boulevards, Avenues and Streets.

Here is how you defined your street:

Context:
Dominant Land Use:
Type:
Function:
Truck/Bus:

The Institute of Transportation Engineers recommends that function as in emerging Urban contexts

An exception is made when a street has more than 5% extra large vehicles, where it may be appropriate for one or more lanes to be 12 feet.

*2: Thickness more assumptions for layer thicknesses, which vary by Street Type.

**3: $Installed to edit costs of installing different pavements and base layers.

Project type check boxes: New Street assumes you need to first remove native soil then install borrow, base, and pavement. If your soil is soft or clay, you will need borrow. If it is already very hard (sand, gravel, and rocks), borrow may not be needed. A total rebuild may or may not need all the above. Check what you think should define each project type.

Notes: Base = Untreated Base Coarse (UTBC); Borrow = Granular Borrow; Soil Removal is the sum of pavement chosen, base and borrow. Paver thickness assumes a sandy underlay.

FYI: The Sign/Light zone contains a surface material (concrete, pavers, grass, etc.). It also typically contains streetlights and info signs.

Light + Sign Cost Calculation:

0.25 miles * 5280 ft/mile = 1320 Linear Feet.
1320 feet / 120 ft spacing = 11 Pole Units.
11 Pole Units * $3000 / unit = $33000 for lights
$33000 * .1 (random signs, etc.) = $3000 for signs
Total = $33000 lights + $3000 misc = $36000

Material Cost Calculation:

0.25 miles * 5280 ft/mile = 1320 Linear Feet.
1320 feet * 2.5 ft wide = 3300 SqFt.
3300 SqFt * $7.00 / SqFt = $23000 for Surface Materials

Material Cost Calculation:

$36000 Lights & Misc + $23000 Materials = $59,0000

Walkway Cost Calculation:

1320 feet * 6.0 feet wide = 3300 SqFt.
3300 SqFt * $7.00 / SqFt = $23000 for Surface Materials

*Base Factor accounts for installation and compaction of granular base under the walkway.

**Region Factor helps you raise or lower the default $/SF if the cost of installed material in your region is higher or lower than what in shown.

Cost of Buffer Zone: 0.25 mi. long, 6.0 -ft wide

Region Factor*

Current Streetscape Selection:

Choose an increasingly artistic investment scale that most closely matches your intent.

	Streetscape Quality	Cost per Linear Foot	$/SF Base	$/SF Factor
		Suburban 1: Simple grass or gravel. Haphazard trees and random maintenance expectations.
		Suburban 2: Asphalt, concrete, stamped concrete. Some flowers or bushes. Haphazard trees and random maintenance expectations.
		Urban 1: Grass or Xeriscape with some flowers or bushes. More uniform tree situation, but not great due to poor soil and maintenance.
		Urban 2: Pavers, uniform street trees in decent "structural soil". Benches, bike racks, flower beds increasingly common.
		Urban 3: Similar, but trees planted in Silva cells or root trenches with loose organic soil to maximize canopy size and health. More artwork.

*Region factor helps you raise or lower the default $/SF if the cost of installed material in your region is higher or lower than what is shown.

Buffer Cost Calculation:

0.25 miles * 5280 ft / mile = 1320 Linear Feet.
1320 feet * 6.0 feet wide = 7920 SqFt
7920 SqFt * $9240.00 / SqFt = $18,400

Cost of Setback: 0.25 mi. long, 3.0-ft wide

Note: A "Setback" is usually a privately owned space, often reserved for future expansion, and thereby must have only parking, signs, or landscaping (no significant buildings). It likely has zero cost to the government.

If this back will have a government funded cost, you may change the original zero value to some other $/SqFt that you think best represent the probable level of investment.

Setback $/SqFt*

Setback Cost Calculation:

0.25 miles * 5280 ft / mile = 1320 Linear Feet.
1320 feet * 6.0 feet wide = 7920 SqFt
7920 SqFt * $9240.00 / SqFt = $18,400
