Pedestrian-only Street / Plaza
LOC-PED-09 Pedestrian-only Street / Plaza
Typical at: Urban Core
Compact is an edge case. Undeveloped, Rural, and Suburban are unlikely pairings.
Caution
Pedestrian-only Street / Plaza carries Situational status. Full vehicle exclusion is only realistic where surrounding land use and network connectivity can absorb the displaced access, which concentrates this pattern at Urban and Core density.
#Modal hierarchy
Pedestrian, then Bicycle where permitted. All other modes are excluded rather than ranked.
#Design notes
Unlike Festival Street, which toggles between full and pedestrian-only operation, this Typology's exclusion of vehicles is permanent. That makes it a heavier commitment, appropriate only where the surrounding block can genuinely support it.
