168
Street looking South:
40m (130') total distance building front to proposed building
front
20m (66') right-of-way.
This view of 168 Street shows one of three Status Quo Pattern
street types. This street is an example of a limited collector
street. The right of way is 20 metres (66') wide.
The apparent width of the street is accentuated by the absence
of streeet trees and deep building front setbacks. Also
note the absence of on-street parking which is frequently regulated
against on collector and arterial streets. this leaves a
6.1 metre (20') travel lane available for each vehicle, encouraging
speeds in excess of posted limits. Presumable the west side
(photograph right) will be developed to the same standards.
