2 Design Guide for Low-Speed Multimodal Roadways This Guide is intended to assist designers in establishing a balance between the operational efficiency, comfort, safety, and convenience for modes on the low- and intermediate-speed roadways. Context sensitivity and environmental quality are also key considerations in the design process and should result in aesthetic consistency with the surrounding terrain or urban setting as appropriate to create roadways that are safe and efficient for users, acceptable to non-users, and in harmony with the environment.
