§ 10.1.0. GENERAL

When designing a street or when developing a complete street network system, consideration should be given to potential utilization and integration of transit vehicles and transit operations. To assist in this endeavor, the Capital Metropolitan Transportation Authority has requested that the Transit Facility Design Guide, (see Appendix G) developed by the Center for Transportation Research, The University of Texas at Austin, June 1988, be included in this manual.

This report should be referenced as it provides valuable information and guidance for planners and designers. This report also includes design criteria for on-site development. If criteria noted in this report conflicts with adopted City of Austin criteria, the criteria adopted by the City of Austin shall govern. It is not intended that this report be applied as a City of Austin standard.
