Caja de herramientas multimodal

La Ciudad de Hyattsville y Toole Design desarrollaron un Guía Multimodal para ayudar a los residentes interesados y a las partes interesadas a comprender la variedad de soluciones para calmar el tráfico disponibles en nuestra comunidad.

Este conjunto de herramientas se basa en el Estudio de transporte de Hyattsville de 2018, que incluyó un análisis integral de la red de transporte de Hyattsville y presentó una serie de objetivos y recomendaciones para mejorar la red de carreteras.

El Guía es una colección de tratamientos de calles diseñados para calmar el tráfico de vehículos y reducir choques, particularmente choques entre vehículos, peatones y ciclistas. Cada herramienta se presenta con una descripción del tratamiento de la calle y su propósito, las ubicaciones donde se usa normalmente, cómo aborda la seguridad vial, las consideraciones en el diseño y la ubicación, la reducción esperada de accidentes (donde esté disponible) y el costo y el tiempo estimados para la instalación.

Danny Schaiblehace 3 años Countless studies show that street trees slow cars and calm traffic, and meet many other CIty objectives. Please, if you do one thing, add this! How Street Trees help make our roads safer - Trees for Streets Safe Streets :: Green Cities: Good Health (washington.edu)Also, several of the streets in Hyattsville listed as "local" have double yellow lines which suggest they are collectors or arterials and promote faster speeds. Removing center striping on local streets should be added as a traffic calming tool: Ask R. Moses: Does Center Line Striping Make Streets Safer?

Dan Behrendhace 3 años Under the heading of Arterial Roadways on page 48, consider adding references and/or hyperlinks to Prince George's County's complete streets policy and urban street design standards. The county adopted a green and complete street policy in 2012 (see PG County ordinance Sec. 23-615. - Complete and Green Streets Policy), which should be applied to all planned county financed and approved road, sidewalk, trail and transit related construction and reconstruction projects. Additionally, the county should be applying the Urban Street Design Standards it adopted in 2017 to the county arterials in Hyattsville, either because they're located in local and regional transit centers, or because they've been adopted through sector plans. Links to the 2017 Urban Street Design Standards can be found here: https://www.princegeorgescountymd.gov/1482/Related-Publications .

Jo Wazhace 3 años Hi all, I would like to see us add a new chapter about how to combine street treatments to maximum impact and install them all at once vs. piecemeal. For example, many residents have asked whether we could combine street treatments at Jefferson and 40th. When I attended one of the City's community outreach sessions, residents asked whether we could combine the colorful mural applied to the asphalt and sidewalk with additional treatments like more tree plantings, a real bike lane (vs existing sharrow), and an elevated speed table that spans the intersection. Likewise, at the octopus intersection, residents have proposed a package of treatments. It would be helpful for Toole to provide examples of places that have done this to good effect, including scheduling the work to happen all at once. Thanks.

Dan Behrendhace 3 años Consider explicitly mentioning the use of on-street bike and micro-mobility parking as a tool to prevent illegal motor vehicle parking near intersections to increase visibility at intersections (perhaps under the section discussing curb extensions/ bulb outs (?)). Hyattsville has implemented a model program for Prince George's County on how to add bike parking at local businesses and near public spaces. Adding bike and scooter corrals at intersections could be a cost-effective tool for both adding bike parking and increasing visibility at intersections. DC and other cities have been using this as a tool to daylight intersections.

Robert Riddlehace 3 años As a driver, I hope I never encounter a chicane. That looks like pure hell.As a cyclist, I hope Hyattsville prioritizes protected bike lanes rather than street-sharing. I bought my bike when I lived in the District and had a 2-mile walk to work; but then didnt use it to commute because drivers are so frightening. Today, thanks to protected cylce lanes, I am comfortable commuting to my downtown office (now a 12-mile trek).Yes, more -- and better -- crossing islands and high-visibilty crosswalks, please. This is especially needed at multiple intersections of MD-500.Finally, a specific location: the crossing from the Northwest Branch Trail at Queens Chapel Rd is extremely dangerous and neefs added scrutiny from law enforcement and a better solution for all users. Many, many, many times I have seen near-miss injuries or fatalities; sometimes it's because one driver may stop, while a driver in the second lane doesn't. The intersection is dangerous for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians-- stopping for a crosser is optional, but shouldn't be -- and while I recognize neither Trail nor roadway are in the City's control, it's City residents who use them most, and need our City to use any means available to achieve a better resolution. This, as much as any spot I can think of in our City, demands attention and a safer solution.

Robert Riddlehace 3 años First, I am a pedestrian, a cyclist, and a driver. I see firsthand, using each of these transit modes, how many life-endangering drivers we have using our City streets. They're not the majority, but the minority creates a serious threat to the lives and safety of others.There are three critical traffic calming strategies, from my perspective, missing from this draft Toolkit.1. Speed cameras -- I see it all the time on our local roadways: the dangerous drivers DO slow down when traffic cameras are present. 2. Law enforcement-- there is an unfortunate trend in recent years away from Police ticketing dangerous drivers for speeding and other flagrant moving violations. This puts pedestrians and cyclists at great risk. Time and again, in our little City, I have had drivers aggressively speed around me and fly through stop signs because I was driving at the speed limit. Also, in the past (two or three Chiefs ago), when threatened by a driver for being a cyclist and using the roadway, Hyattsville police did not demonstrate that my report of the near-miss collision violation and life threat was taken seriously. I have been threatened as a cyclist since then, but learned not to waste my time trying to report a driver to City police because as far as I could tell, police acted as if I was the annoyance, instead of the aggressive driver.3. Parked cars impeding the easy flow of motor vehicles-- another unfortunate trend, in my opinion, is the misuse of parked cars in place of real traffic calming. As a driver, resident, and homeowner, just leaving from and returning home includes unnecessary aggravation and even danger because the City allows random parking where there is room for only one car at a time to use a dual-direction roadway. This causes undue congestion and unnecessary aggravation. I also wonder how this must complicate transit for emergency service vehicles (fire trucks, ambulance) because this questionable strategy encumbers the free flow of motor vehicles. When you have a street that's wide enough for three vehicles but you choke it so only one vehicle can use it at a time, that's a recipe for increased drivers' aggression. Make the street one-way if the intention is for one car at a time to navigate it. Otherwise, allow parking on ONE side and keep TWO clear. Similarly -- I've raised this issue before, but it bears reiterating until it's addressed -- the City created a traffic congestion problem when it chose to allow street parking in front of Yes and Busboys, when that shopping center was built. Traffic coming into the area -- including, often, those of us who live here -- from the Alt 1 flyover are squeezed into a single lane. There is ALWAYS a traffic jam-up there, ever since that development, and it's totally unnecessary. Cars can be slowed with better means than jam-ups, and in my regular experience of that location, aggressive and dangerous driving seems to have INCREASED for auto drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians (I have been all of these, while trying to navigate that dangerous mix) thanks to that unnecessary bottle neck. There is parking behind the shopping center; eliminate those few street side spaces, PLEASE.

Robert Riddlehace 3 años Wondering about the measures used behind the "roadway classification" map? Adelphi Rd is a major artery but it's labeled local. East-West Hwy, similarly, is a major roadway but labeled collector. Other roadways that seem inappropriately classified include Route 1 Alternate, Ager Rd., and possibly Belcrest -- based, in part at least, on the numbers and frequency of auto drivers directed along these streets by commonly-used GPS apps, such as Google Maps and Waze.
