§ 8109-1.2.3. Circulation.
Circulation shall be designed as follows, where feasible:
a.
To minimize street and utility networks;
b.
To provide a pedestrian walking and bicycle path system throughout the common areas, which system(s) should interconnect with circulation systems surrounding the development;
c.
To discourage through-traffic in neighborhoods by keeping intersections to a minimum and by the creation of discontinuities such as curvilinear streets, cul-de-sacs and the like; and
d.
To facilitate solar access by orienting neighborhood streets along an east/west axis, except where this is precluded by the natural topography and drainage patterns.
