Contextually Complete Streets
Throughout the US and worldwide, great places can be defined as attractive, active, open, walkable, entertaining and full of people. Great places have great streets and great streets have a "place" function. Great streets are accessible, livable, safe, comfortable, and interactive. Over 130 municipalities across the US have complete streets policies. A Contextually Complete Street is a multi-modal complete street reflecting the principles of context sensitivity and sustainability. In a Contextually Complete Street, the stakeholders and context define what is meant by "complete." This paper describes Contextually Complete Street principles and provides examples of these complete street solutions. Common themes of Contextually Complete Streets are explored and tools that can be used in achieving a Contextually Complete Street are highlighted. These tools include road diets, traffic calming, intersection design, designing for pedestrians and bicyclists, transit design features, lane restrictions, and green street options.
