character of the road bast and foundation. 1
2) Cross section design illustrating varfous alter-
native design standards, including the usage of
the road surface for bike lanes and pedestrian
lanes. This should include research which idor ti-
fies which meet and which do not meet MSA standrds.
3) Recommendations for design that will create the
least detrimental impact upon the residents of
this area,
4) Results of a professionally dote impact study,
