Two related questions for this group:
1) Does anyone have some good online sources for empirical studies on the correlation of paved road width to average traffic speed?
2) Online sources for traffic calming techniques for use on arterial roads w/ multi-use (bicycles, pedestrians, etc) wide (5 feet) paved shoulders? The goal is calming on the vehicular lanes w/out inhibiting non-motorized traffic flow on the multi-use shoulders.
Geography & climate of subject area is:
NW Washington State
Avg. annual snowfall of 11.5".
TIA for any leads.
