STREETS AND SIDEWALKS
1.00 DESIGN STANDARDS
1.01 PURPOSE
These standards are meant to provide a consistent policy under which certain physical aspects of
street design and plan preparation shall be implemented. The following standards apply to
public streets. Only the Basic Geometry (1.02.1), Pavement Design (1.02.7), Driveway
Approaches (1.02.13), and Private Improvements (1.02.15) sections apply to private streets.
These standards cannot provide for all situations and are not intended to substitute for
competent work by design professionals. It is expected that the Engineer of Record
representing the Applicant will bring to each project the best professional skills from their
respective disciplines.
These standards are also not intended to limit any reasonable, innovative, or creative effort
which could result in better quality and/or lower costs. Any proposed departure from these
standards, however, shall be brought to the attention of the City Engineer and City Traffic
Engineer, and will be judged on the likelihood that it will produce a comparable result that will
be satisfactory for the user and Springfield.
1.02 DESIGN STANDARDS - GENERAL
These standards are intended to be consistent with the Springfield Development Code
(SDC), the Eugene-Springfield Metropolitan Area General Plan (Metro Plan), any relevant
refinement plans, the Springfield Transportation System Plan, and the current Springfield
Standard Construction Specifications. These standards pertain to the design of streets within
Springfield and its Urban Growth Boundary; establish appropriate right-of-way widths and
improvement requirements; and provide standards for the various City street classifications.
All public streets are considered fire department emergency apparatus access roads and shall
meet the fire code minimum design standards. Private streets may or may not be considered
fire department emergency apparatus access roads as determined by the Fire Marshal.
All new or altered public streets and all other facilities located in the public right-of-way must
meet the Public Rights-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines (2011) ("PROWAG")published by
the U.S. Access Board. By this reference, the City adopts the PROWAG into its standards.
Where the PROWAG conflicts with standards in this manual or in the Springfield Standard
Section I- DESIGN STANDARDS 1 - 1 EDSP Adopted P��kgr 20. 2023
Exhibit B Page 2 of 14
Construction Specifications, the PROWAG standards will prevail.
Streets shall be engineered in a manner to allow economical future maintenance,provide the
lowest life cycle cost, and to ensure a minimum practical street design life of at least 20 years
for local streets and 30 years for arterial and collector class streets.
1.02.1 Basic Geometry
The location,width, and grade of streets shall be considered in their relation to existing and
planned streets,topographical conditions, and the planned use of land to be served by the streets.
Grades,tangents, curves, and intersection angles shall be appropriate for the traffic to be carried,
considering the terrain.
1.02.2 Design SUeed
Unless otherwise approved by the City Engineer and City Traffic Engineer, the design speeds
identified in Table 1-1, Minimum Design Speeds, shall be used in the design of all public
streets. The Engineer of Record is responsible for evaluating and choosing the necessary
design speed for the conditions. In the event that a project is a continuation of an existing
street, the design speed of the new project shall be appropriate for the context of the
extended street.

1.02.3 Right-of-Way and Street Width
Right-of-way and street width shall be determined by applying standards specified in this
Manual and other adopted policies such as the SDC; the Metro Plan, applicable refinement plans,
and Springfield Transportation System Plan. Final decisions on street width may be a function of
information provided in a Traffic Impact Study (TIS). A TIS may be required by the City Traffic
Engineer for streets within, or adjacent to, developments.
1.02.4 Vertical Alignment
A vertical curve shall be used at all grade transitions on collector and arterial class streets. Grade
breaks may be utilized on low speed local class streets where the grade transition is 2 percent
(algebraic difference) or less. Multiple grade brakes shall not be used in lieu of a vertical curve.
Vertical curves shall be designed in accordance with the most recent standards set forth in "A
Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets"published by AASHTO. Vertical curves
shall be of adequate length to provide ample sight distance and safe stopping sight distances for
wet pavements based on minimum design speeds identified in Section 1.02.2 or as determined by
the Engineer of Record and approved by the City Traffic Engineer and City Engineer.
1.02.5 Horizontal Alignment and Super-elevation
Horizontal alignment and super-elevation shall be designed in accordance with the most recent
standards set forth in "A Policy on Geometric Design ofHighways and Streets"published by
AASHTO.
Horizontal curves shall be of adequate lengths to provide ample sight distance and safe stopping
sight distances for wet pavements based on minimum design speeds identified in Section 1.02.2
or as determined by the Engineer of Record and approved by the City Engineer and City Traffic
Engineer.
Spiral curves shall not be used on any City streets unless otherwise approved or required by the
City Engineer and City Traffic Engineer.
Super-elevation shall be considered for use on all collector and arterial streets in Springfield. A
maximum super-elevation rate of 4 percent shall be used unless otherwise approved by the City
Engineer and City Traffic Engineer.

1.02.6 Maximum Street Grades
Standard street grades shall not exceed the following grades:
Street Class Grade Percent
Arterial 8
Collector 10
Local Streets 12*
* Street grades may exceed the 12 percent local street standard only where topographical
conditions make it impractical to meet the 12 percent standard, subject to the following
conditions:
(a)No driveways or intersections shall be permitted where street grades exceed 12
percent;
(b)No street with a grade of 15 percent or greater shall be permitted for a distance of
more than 200 feet; and
(c) In no case shall a street grade exceed 18 percent for any distance.
Refer to Chapter 7 Hillside Development and related Sections for special design considerations
and conditions for developing on hillsides in Springfield.
1.02.7 Pavement Design
A pavement design shall be submitted for review with the construction plans for all street
construction projects in Springfield with the following exceptions:
A. The proposed street completes a partial width street(2/3 or 1/2) and the existing design is
utilized.
B. The proposed street is classified as a"local street" or a private street in a residentially
zoned area with internal circulation only, and will never carry through traffic, as
approved by the City Engineer. In this case,the minimum flexible pavement design
structure of 4 inches of Asphalt Concrete on 12 inches of crushed rock or the minimum
rigid pavement design structure of 7 inches of Portland Cement Concrete pavement on 6
inches of crushed rock and geotextile fabric shall be utilized.
C. The requirement is waived by the City Engineer.
All local street pavements shall have a minimum of a 20-year or greater design life. Collector
and Arterial class streets shall have a 30-year or greater design life.
Transitions between pavement types (flexible and rigid) shall be made at or near an intersection.

All plan sets, regardless of the anticipated construction schedule, shall include a wet weather
construction provision. The wet weather design shall be used for any project which initiates
excavation for street construction prior to May I". The City Engineer will begin considering the
use of the dry weather standard after May 1, depending on ground conditions and existing and
forecasted weather conditions. In addition, any project that is started after May 1st,but is not
scheduled for pavement by October 151h of that same calendar year, shall use the wet weather
construction standard. Minimum wet weather provisions include 8 inches of additional crushed
rock and geotextile fabric under the dry weather design pavement structure (rigid or flexible).
These minimum provisions may be increased at the Construction Inspector's discretion if
materials tests and field inspection dictate.
In all cases the pavement structure shall be placed on a subgrade that is firm and unyielding
(verified by proof rolling) and compacted according to the specifications. The Construction
Inspector, at their discretion, may require additional measures to ensure the pavement structure
meets the design standard intent.
1.02.7.1 Flexible Pavement Design
Asphaltic Concrete (flexible)pavement structures shall be designed in accordance with the
most recent edition of the "AASHTO Guide for Design ofPavement Structures. "Alternate
design standards which provide an equivalent or more durable road structure may be used if
approved by the City Engineer. The following steps are necessary to calculate a flexible
pavement design.
Step 1: Order soils test from independent testing laboratory to obtain the Effective Roadbed Soil
Resilient Modulus, Mr.
Soils tests shall be made at a depth of the proposed subgrade,no less than 2 feet below
the existing ground level. Soils tests shall be gathered from enough locations within the
proposed right-of-way for the sampling to be representative of actual conditions. At a
minimum, one soil test shall be obtained for every 500 feet of proposed roadway. Where
possible, a soil test shall be taken in the intersection of two newly proposed roadways.
Soil test information shall be submitted with the pavement design. As an alternative, the
Effective Roadbed Soil Resilient Modulus, Mr, can by determined if the Effective
Modulus of Subgrade Reaction, k, is known by the relationship: Mr= 19.4 * k
Step 2: Determine the estimated total 18-kip Equivalent Single Axle Load Applications, Wig, as
described in Appendix D of the AASHTO guide.
Traffic volumes shall be based upon actual counts and/or traffic studies. See Table 1-2
below for minimum terminal serviceability values based on roadway classification when
using the AASHTO design method. Assume an initial structural number, SN, of 3 and a
minimum of 10 percent truck traffic. This calculation shall be submitted with the
pavement design.
Step 3: Obtain the minimum acceptable values of the Reliability (R%), Overall Standard
Deviation (So), and Design Serviceability Loss (OPSI) from Table 1-2 below based on the
roadway classification.

Step 4: Obtain the Design Structural Number(SN) from the "Design Chart(nomograph) for
Flexible Pavement Based on using Mean Values for Each Input,"Figure 3.1 in the
AASHTO design guide, using the specific and constant values determined in Steps 1-3.
Step 5: Determine the thickness of the pavement layer based on the formula:
SN<= a, Di+ a2D2m2 +a3D3m3
Where:
a,, az a3 = layer coefficients representative of the surface, base and subbase
courses respectively. Maximum values for each construction
material are identified in Table 1-3 below.
Di, Dz, D3 = actual thicknesses (in inches) of the surface,base, and subbase
courses, respectively. No less than 4 inches of asphalt or 12 inches
of crushed rock shall be specified in any pavement structure in
Springfield. Deep lift asphalt may be approved by the City
Engineer under certain circumstances.

Flexible Pavement Design Notes:
A. The minimum thicknesses of asphaltic concrete and crushed rock for permanent
pavement are 4 inches and 12 inches, respectively, for local streets, and 6 inches and 14
inches, respectively, for collectors and above classifications.
B. Where crushed rock base is specified, 1 inch of asphalt is considered equivalent to 3
inches of crushed rock.
C. Full depth asphalt may be approved by the City Engineer under certain circumstances
where the underlying soil type is free draining. Even when the AASHTO method yields
a design thickness less than 8 inches,the minimum full depth asphalt design thickness
shall be 8 inches.
D. All design thicknesses shall be rounded 0 to the nearest 1/2 inch.
E. In all cases,the pavement structure shall be placed on a subgrade that is firm and
unyielding (verified by proof rolling) and compacted according to the specifications.
F. All designed cross-sections shall include wet weather construction provisions including
geotextile fabric and an additional 8 inches of crushed rock between the native material
and base of the asphalt concrete pavement structure.
1.02.7.2 Rigid Pavement Design
Portland Cement Concrete (rigid)pavement structures shall be designed according to the most
recent edition of AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures. Alternate design standards
which provide an equivalent or more durable road structure may be used if approved by the City

Step 1: Order soils test from independent testing laboratory to obtain the Effective Modulus of
Subgrade Reaction, k (pci).
Soils tests shall be made at a depth of the proposed subgrade,no less than 2 feet below
the existing ground level. Soils tests shall be gathered from enough locations within the
proposed right-of-way for the sampling to be representative of actual conditions. At a
minimum, one soil test shall be obtained for every 500 feet of proposed roadway.
Wherever possible, a soil test shall be taken in the intersection of two newly proposed
roadways. Soil test information shall be submitted with the pavement design. As an
alternative,the Effective Modulus of Subgrade Reaction, k, can by determined if the
Effective Roadbed Soil Resilient Modulus, Mr is known by the relationship:
k= Mr / 19.4
Step 2: Determine the Concrete Elastic Modulus, Ec (psi)
Specify, in the design calculations and in the plans, the compressive strength, f (psi) of
the concrete mix design. The Concrete Elastic Modulus, E. (psi) can be determined from
the relationship:
Er=57,000�(f')
Section I- DESIGN STANDARDS 1 - 7 EDSP Adopted P��kgr 20. 2023
Exhibit B Page 8 of 14
Step 3: Determine the Mean Concrete Modulus of Rupture, S (psi).
The minimum Mean Concrete Modulus of Rupture, S`c (psi), is specified in the
Springfield Standard Specification 311.3.02c, Flexural Strength.
Step 4: Determine the Load Transfer Coefficient, J
Pavements with a monolithic or tied curb and gutter that provide additional stiffness and
keeps traffic away from the edge may be treated as a tied shoulder. If the curb is not
integral with the pavement section, rebar shall be provided to join the curb to the slab
section (Refer to Springfield Standard Specifications for requirements). Under normal
circumstances, load transfer devices are not required on City streets. Obtain the value
from Table 2.6 in the AASHTO guide.
Step 5: Determine the Drainage Coefficient, Cd
The Engineer of Record shall determine this value using Table 2.5 of the AASHTO guide
and information gathered from soils test and references such as the USGS Soil Survey of
Lane County.
Step 6: Determine the estimated total 18-kip Equivalent Single Axle Load Applications, Wig, as
described in Appendix D of the AASHTO guide.
Traffic volumes shall be based upon actual counts and/or traffic studies. See Table 1-4
below for minimum terminal serviceability values based on roadway classification when
using the AASHTO design method. Assume an initial pavement thickness of 6 inches
and a minimum of 10 percent truck traffic. This calculation shall be submitted with the
pavement design.
Step 7: Obtain the minimum acceptable values of the Reliability (R%), Overall Standard
Deviation (So), and Design Serviceability Loss (OPSI) from Table 1-4 below based on the
roadway classification.

4.00 DESIGN STANDARDS
4.01 PURPOSE
The purpose of the Stormwater Capacity Design Standards is to provide a consistent policy under
which certain physical aspects of stormwater conveyance design will be implemented. These
standards have the objective of developing a stormwater conveyance system that 4+&4-must:
A. Be consistent with the most current stormwater studies, master plans, and discharge
permits for Springfield, the Springfield Development Code(SDC), APWA
standard construction specifications, City of Springfield standard construction
details and other Chapters of this Manual;
B. Be of adequate design to safely manage all volumes of water generated upstream and on
the site to an approved point of discharge;
C. Provide conveyance for stormwater generated by future development upstream;
D. Prevent the uncontrolled or irresponsible discharge of stormwater onto adjoining public
or private property;
E. Prevent the capacity of downstream channels and stormwater management facilities from
being exceeded;
F. Have sufficient structural strength to resist erosion and all external loads that may be
imposed;
G. Avoid impacts to stream water quality and quantity, and seek to maintain the historic
hydrograph, including peak and base flows;
H. Maximize efficient use of Springfield's natural drainage systems and wetlands;
I. Require groundwater recharge wherever possible by utilizing stormwater
management techniques that decrease imp permeable surfaces and increase
infiltration to manage stormwater runoff,
J. Promote the protection of the Springfield's existing high level of overall water quality
and facilitate implementation of further water quality improvements;
Section I- DESIGN STANDARDS 4 - 1 EDSP Adopted
Exhibit D Page 2 of 42
K. Be designed in a manner and use materials that allow economical maintenance;
L. Be designed using methods and materials to insure a minimum practical design life of 75
years for all systems and 100+years in traveled right-of-way; and
M. Be designed based on future land use.
4.02 GENERAL DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
Stormwater system design within a development site 4 -must include provisions to address
water quality e r,.ems 'Rae Gh ,^*ar 31, and the collection and conveyance of runoff from all
public and private
a,-ains of all s+mue „e impermeable surfaces. Furthermore, the design 4+a-ll-must
provide for the future extension of the stormwater system to the entire drainage basin in
conformance with current adopted stormwater master plans or approved modifications to
those plans.
All stormwater system designs must be based upon the requirements in Springfield
Development Code 4.3.110, which requires en an engineering analysis that takes into consideration
water quality issues, infiltration capacity on-site, existing runoff rates and discharge points onto
neighboring properties,pipe flow capacity, hyd gr-a-le�ine, so�ehar-aEt +� �
conflict with existing or proposed utilities, and potential construction problems.
In all locations
ndi64 ,r exist f^r of new or redevelopment the primary method for stormwater management
will utilize-a_Low Impact Development Approaches (LIDA), discussed in more
detail in Section 4.17.
�r�r
4.03 ACCOUNTABILITY FOR STORMWATER SYSTEM DESIGN
This Chapter presents Springfield's standards for engineering and design of stormwater system
facilities. While Springfield believes these standards are appropriate for a wide range of
development proposals, compliance solely with these requirements does not relieve the
professional engineer of their responsibility to ensure stormwater facilities are engineered to
provide adequate protection for public and private property and natural resources.
To assist applicants in preparing a Stormwater Study, Springfield has developed a Stormwater
Scoping Sheet to ensure that site stormwater system design is prepared in compliance with this
Manual and the Springfield Development Code. The Stormwater
Management System Scope of Work must 4,ta4 be completed for each development and can
be found on the Citv's website.
Other agencies may require some form of stormwater system review and impose requirements
that are separate from, and in addition to; Springfield's requirements. The applicant must
coordinate with these agencies and resolve any conflicts or concerns in stormwater conveyance
and water quality requirements.

Outfalls must conform to the requirements of all federal, state, and local regulations.
Outfall design 4+&4-must be based on considerations to protect the outfall area and channel
from scour, sloughing and channel degradation rather than hydraulic efficiency. The design
velocity from the outfall for its largest recurrence interval design storm -must be consistent
with the velocity in the receiving channel for the same recurrence interval design storm as the
outfall design storm. If the velocity from the outfall is greater than the velocity in the receiving
channel, erosion protection and energy dissipation may be required. Installation of backflow
prevention gates may be necessary when the outfall is in a tail-water condition.
A. Outfalls 4+a-ll-must be placed above the mean low water level except as permitted by
the City Engineer.
B. All outfalls smust be provided with a rock splash pad or other approved erosion
control protection measures. Rock protection at outfalls -must be designed in
accordance with the ODOT
standard detail RD317 and Table 4-2 above. Mechanisms that reduce velocity prior to
discharge from an outfall are encouraged and may be required. Examples are drop
manholes and rapid expansion into pipes of much larger size.
C. An engineered energy dissipater,that may include stilling basins, drop pools, hydraulic
jump basins, baffled aprons, or bucket aprons, s -must be provided for outfalls with
velocity at design flow greater than 10 FPS. These 4+&4-must be designed using
published references such as Hydraulic Design ofEnergy Dissipaters for Culverts and

4.11.1 RegLikements for Permeable Pavements for Impermeable Area Reduction
Permeable Pavements may be used for impermeable area reduction only and not utilized for
stormwater quality treatment or stormwater destination from other impermeable surface.
All permeable pavements used for driveways,residential, or commercial parking areas must be
constricted of material that is firmly bonded so that it cannot be displaced or moved during its
intended use and is durable and dust free. Loose fill permeable pavements are allowed on
maintenance and emergency access areas or other areas that are not to be used for daily vehicular
traffic.
Permeable pavements are not allowed in areas with a high likelihood of pollutant spills such as (but
not limited to)vehicle service areas, loading docks, and trash enclosures or handling areas.
Permeable pavements should not be used in high traffic areas such as drive through lanes,
loading/unloading areas, or main access aisles of parking lot.
If permeable pavement is to be used in a proposed development, the use must be approved during
site plan review (if applicable), Drinking Water Protection permit(if applicable), and building
permit review. To be approved the following items are required to be submitted for review:
A. Site Requirements:
Section I- DESIGN STANDARDS 4 - 24 EDSP Adopted
Exhibit D Page 25 of 42
1. The location of the permeable pavement on the site showing the permeable pavement
location is no steeper than 5 percent slope in any direction and setback from any foundation
by at least 10 feet and any private property line by at least 5 feet. Permeable pavement may-
be placed directly adjacent to public right-of-way but may not be placed in utility
easements.
2. An on-site infiltration test by a qualified professional using the method in the City of
Springfield Development Code Appendix C showing the soil is suitable for pen-neable
pavement installation so that the base-aggregate can contain the 10 year storm OR an
underdrain system is provided to a public 5ystem with sufficient capacity for the------discharge
fromthe underdrain system
B. Permeable pavement section requirements
I. A full cross-section of the pavement structure from the subgrade to the top of pavement
must be provided by either the manufacturer of the pavement product or a licensed
professional engineer.
2. Existing ground/sub grade. The subgrade should be uncompacted and native material if
possible. If placed in compacted soil or compacted fill, an underdrain system is required.
3. Geotextile fabric is required between the base rock and the subgrade. If the section is
designed to infiltrated into the subgrade the fabric must be permeable. Additional permeable
fabric may be required between layers within the pavement section as shown by the
manufacturer or engineer.
4. Aggregate base rock: A permeable laver of open graded base rock must be provided for
storage of runoff and the structural platform for the wearing surface. The aggregate base
layer must be designed to accommodate the specific volume of rainfall storage required and
the anticipated surface design loads. In no case may the layer be less than 6 inches. This
must be OgULy labeled with for thickness and material, Diameter of aggregate base must be
no greater than 2-1/2 inch and no less than 3/4-inch and consist of crushed rock.
5. Bedding course: Some permeable pavement products and designs require a shallow laver
between the aggregate base rock and the paving course, typically sand or small diameter
crushed rock. If used, this layer must be clearly labeled for thickness and material and no
less than I inch thick
6. Paving/top course: Paving courses must be designed for the anticipated surface loads and
the aggregate base layer design. All paving courses must be permeable as to infiltrate
ston-nwater directly into the aggregate base layer. Asphalt mixes must be of the oen graded
design. Permeable concrete mixes must be of the open graded design with little or no sand.
Permeable pavers and other Dremanufactured products should be installed per
manufacturer's recommendations.
7. Underdrains: If the permeable paving is to be installed in area without adequate infiltration
an underdrain must be provided. This must consist of perforated PVC or HDPE 12il2e no less
Section I - DESIGN STANDARDS 4 - 25 EDSP Adopted Dee—
TK,es
Exhibit D Page 26 of 42
than 3 inches in diameter, provided with a wrapped, permeable geotextile material and drain
to a storrnwater management system, public or private, that meets the requirements in
Chapter 4 of the City of Springfield EDSPM.
8. If propriety permeable pavement material is proposed, a complete set of
manufacturer's specifications for the permeable pavement section, installation, suitability
for the intended use, and all materials is required.
C. Permeable Pavement Inspection Requirements
Inspection and proper documentation are required for permeable pavement at the following
points in construction:
I. When excavation of the section is complete and the underdrain has been installed i Lf an
underdrain is required)to verify the ull depth of the section is excavated and the native
f
material is uncQWgKWd.
2. When the aggregate base rock is installed but before the bedding course or pavement/top
course is installed. As part of this inspection a load ticket or other approved proof is
required that the aggregate base rock meets the material as specified in the approved
pavement section submitted with the development approval or the building pen-nit.
3. When the top course is finished and the pavement is fully installed. As part of this
inspection a load ticket or other approved proof is required that the pavement/top course
meets the material as specified in the approved pavement section submitted with the
development approval or the building permit.

342-.7 4-12 PARKING LOT MAINTENANCE
!a .1 Oft 10 *,e a-I I Springfield highly recommends routine surface cleaning of
parking lots. The use of"dry" cleaning techniques (sweeping, vacuuming, etc.) is highly preferred
because they eliminate water discharges to the storm system. Absorbent material 4+a4-must be
used on particularly oily or dirty surfaces prior to cleaning. Generally,parking lots should be
cleaned prior to the wet season (i.e. 101eteebef 1, to dampen the effects of the first flush. Additional
cleanings can be determined through on-site observations and accumulations of sediments.
Parking lot debris from cleanup 4+a4-must be disposed of at a landfill.
Wet cleaning techniques (pressure washing, garden hoses, etc.) involving water for parking lot
cleanup are regulated by the Springfield Municipal Code (SMC), Sections 4.370 and 4.372. If
parking lots must be washed with water, contact the Environmental Services Division for
information regarding requirements and disposal of cleaning water. Wash water smust not be
directed into the stormwater system under any circumstances without required BMPs being
implemented.
Routine area drains and catch basin cleaning 4+a4-must also be done as part of parking lot
cleaning activities. Storm catch basins collect debris such as oils, paper-, sediments, and od+ef-
Section I - DESIGN STANDARDS 4 - 26 EDSP Adopted

trash. If not routinely cleaned this debris will plug the discharge pipe and cause flooding as well as
discharging polluted water into the public stormwater system. Discharge of polluted stormwater is
a violation of the SMC Section 4.372(-64 and is subject to a fine.

Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets published by AASHTO.
At intersections, a vision clearance triangle shall be maintained. In addition to AASHTO sight
distance requirements, refer to SDC 4.2-130 for requirements.
5.07.3 Bus Turnout
A turnout is a specialized bus stop where passengers who board and de-board a bus can load in
an area that is separated from the traffic lanes. Turnouts are appropriate in certain conditions. A
properly marked turnout also serves as a reminder of the availability of transit service.
It is important that turnouts be properly designed with sufficient length to allow for easy and safe
flow by the bus in and out of traffic. If there is a high traffic volume on the street, efficient bus
operation may require that the timing of nearby traffic signals be designed to ensure that there
will be sufficient gaps in the traffic to allow the bus to pull back into the traffic flow.
Safety and traffic flow are important considerations in deciding whether to install a turnout.
Turnouts may be helpful on streets that function with higher speeds (over 35 miles per hour)
because there is less risk of a rear-end collision while the bus is stopped to board or deboard
passengers. A bus stopped at a turn out, will also not impede traffic flow, which could be a
significant advantage for traffic operation on the street,particularly if the stop time is long due to
high passenger activity or boardings by people who use wheelchairs and other mobility devices.
Installing turnouts on streets that function with speeds of 35 mile per hour or less shall be
approached with caution. If there is high volume traffic (exceeding 600 vehicles per hour) for all
or part of the day,with few gaps in traffic flow, it may take an extended amount of time for the
bus to safely enter the travel lane after a stop, resulting in longer travel time for transit riders and
higher operational costs. This could be mitigated by the use of traffic control signals, or queue
jumpers at a nearby intersection.
Bus turnouts shall be designed as specified in the current standards in "A Policy on Geometric
Design of Highways and Streets", "Guide for Design of High-Occupancy Vehicle and Public
Transportation Facilities", and"Guidelines for the Location and Design of Bus Stops"published
by AASHTO. The following standards are from "A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways
and Streets".
Section I- DESIGN STANDARDS 5 - 14 EDSP Adopted T-antiat:y 21, 242-0-November 20�
2023 Resolution No. 2023-36
Exhibit E Page 15 of 18
The interference between buses and other traffic can be considerably reduced by providing
turnouts on arterials. The bus turnout shall include a deceleration lane or taper, a standing space
long enough to accommodate the maximum number of vehicles expected to occupy the space at
one time, and a merging lane to reenter the travel way.
The deceleration lane shall be tapered at an angle flat enough to encourage the bus operator to
pull completely clear of the through lane before stopping. A taper of 8:1, longitudinal to
transverse is a desirable minimum.
The boarding area shall provide 50 feet of length for a standard bus and 60 feet of length for an
articulated bus. When two or more buses that use the stop at the same time use the equation;
[50'+65'(x-1)], x=number of buses. The width shall be at least 10 feet,preferably 12 feet. The
merging or reentry taper shall not be sharper than 8:1.
5.07.4 Bus Stop Locations
A. A transit or bus stop is a designated place along a transit route where a public transit
vehicle stops to allow passengers to board and deboard. General decisions about where
to locate a stop are based on the following criteria:
1. Distance between Stops: The standard distance between bus stops on a standard local
route is 750-1300 feet. Bus stops shall be installed when service is needed in each
direction at the same intersection where practicable. Lane Transit District(LTD) can
operate service most effectively by balancing customer convenience and accessibility
to the service with the need to retain operational speed and efficiency.
2. Safety for Passengers: Stops are placed in areas where passengers can have a safe
and direct access to sidewalks,walkways, and waiting areas. Stops shall be placed so
that there is adequate sight distance between bus operators and waiting customers. A
safe environment shall also be provided for all necessary operational movements. It is
important for passengers with disabilities, or other needs, especially those who use
wheelchairs, mobility devices or have children in strollers to have an accessible route
to and from the bus door.
3. Convenient Access: In order for public transit to be effective,passengers must be
able to access service that is close to major passenger destinations. It should also be
easy for passengers to transfer from one bus to another, either at the same bus stop or
to one on a nearby cross street.
4. Operational Characteristics: A properly developed bus stop allows for safe
movement by the bus into and out of the traffic flow with minimal delay. If the stop
is on a heavily used transit corridor, there may be a need to accommodate two or
possibly more buses using the stop at the same time. Turnouts may be desirable in
some cases.
B. The actual position of a bus stop from a street intersection can depend on transit
operations, safety, bus riders' needs,traffic flow,parking, physical roadside constraints
(trees,poles, driveways, etc.) and property concerns. There are three basic types of bus
stop locations along a street: far-side, near-side, and mid-block bus stops.
Section I- DESIGN STANDARDS 5 - 15 EDSP Adopted T November 20
2023 Resolution No. 2023-36
Exhibit E Page 16 of 18
Far-Side Bus Stop: A bus stop that is located immediately following an intersection and
is recommended for use when:
1. Traffic in the direction the bus is traveling is heavier approaching the intersection
than leaving the intersection.
2. There is a high demand for right turns in the direction the bus is traveling.
3. The crossing street is a one-way street where traffic flows from left to right.
4. A preferred bus stop length is 90 feet measured from the crosswalk to the bus stop
sign.
Near-Side Bus Stop: A bus stop that is located immediately before an intersection and is
recommended for use when:
1. Traffic in the direction the bus is traveling is heavier leaving the intersection than
approaching the intersection.
2. The cross street is one-way where traffic flows from the right to left.
3. The location is one that offers a clear advantage for transit riders by providing
improved access to a major destination or to other intersecting bus routes.
4. The preferred length is 90 feet measured from the crosswalk to the bus stop sign.
Mid-Block Bus Stop: A bus stop that is generally located 100 feet or more before or
beyond an intersection and is recommended for use when:
1. Traffic or physical street characteristics prevent siting a stop close to an intersection.
2. The distance between intersections will far exceed the standard for bus stop spacing.
3. The bus stop serves large businesses, housing developments or other significant trip
generators. Generally, activity is limited to the bus stop side of the street. If there is
a mid-block crosswalk, the stop shall be placed on the far side of the crosswalk so
motorists and pedestrians can have clear sight lines.
4. The preferred length is 100 feet measured from the crosswalk to the bus stop sign.
C. Even if a chosen bus stop location fits a recommended description for one of the types
than others, both LTD and Springfield need to consider the advantages and disadvantages
in their location decision. Common advantages and disadvantages of each type are listed
below.
