required by the Planning Com mission for the past several y ears, prim arily in the form of bulbed intersections to reduce pedestrian street crossing distan ce. In addition, consistent with Oregon statute, the LDC also requires that bike lanes be included with all new arterial and collector street construction projects. The following table describes the charact eristics that com prise four of the major street classifications in the Medford UGB area.

(3) Where required at or betw een intersections. (4) Bike lanes w ill be provided on all new collector and arte rial street construction (L DC Chapter 10, T able IV-1). (5) Unless located in dow ntown or where adjacent to the curb and on an arterial or colle ctor street w here the sidew alk should be 7 feet w ide. The four m ajor street classifications are further described below: Arterial . Arterial streets are intended to provide for high volum e travel between or within communities, or to and from collectors and other arterials. Standard design requirem ents for two- way arterials shall include four travel lanes and a fifth lane (or m ore where volum es warrant) at all intersections where turns are allowed. Fac ilities for two-way bicy cle travel and pedestrians are included. The design of arterials m ay also be subject to regulation and control of on-street parking, turning m ovem ents, and access. Individual residential driveway access for new developm ent shall not be perm itted on an arterial if other m eans of access are available. Collector . Collector streets service lower order streets and conduct traffic between arterials. Standard design requirem ents for a collector shall include two travel lanes and a center turn lane when necessary . Facilities for two-way bicy cle travel and pedestrians are included. The design of collectors m ay be subject to regulation and contro l of on-street parking, turning m ovem ents, and access. Individual residential driveway access for new developm ent shall not be perm itted on a collector street if other reasonable m eans of access are available. Standard Residential . Standard Residential streets provide access to im mediately adjacent residential land that also provides connections between collector streets and m inor residential streets. Design requirem ents for a standard residential street include two travel lanes and on-street parking on both sides. Medford Transportatio n System Plan 3-5 Existing Conditions
