This page shows more detail than THE PLAN or the THREE VILLAGES pages.  The map below show a portion of Trailwood Village.  The double lines on the left represent a north - south four lane divided street that I call WEST PARKWAY.  The heavy single line that starts at WEST PARKWAY and goes to the east I call TRAILWOOD DRIVE.  PARKWAYs and DRIVEs do not have any private drives accessing them to allow a smoother and faster flow of traffic.

The thin vertical lines are the residential streets with a cul-de-sac at the end of each street.  Cul-de-sacs have less traffic than through streets.  Notice that each residential street forms a "T" intersection with TRAILWOOD DRIVE.  A "T" intersection will naturally slow down automobile traffic as it approaches the intersection.  It also eliminates the possibility of driving on TRAILWOOD DRIVE and making a wrong turn at the intersection -- there is only one way to turn.

Each residential street should have its own unique name, a name found nowhere else in the community.  The streets should be named in alphabetical order to make it easier for visitors to find their destination.  The first street name I will call Alpine Street.  In the example below it is the first vertical line below TRAILWOOD DRIVE.  The next street might be named Briarwood Street, and it is the first vertical line above TRAILWOOD DRIVE.  The next vertical line below TRAILWOOD DRIVE I will call Chestnut Street, and so forth.  The last street to the east is not shown; it would be a vertical line above TRAILWOOD DRIVE and I will call it Timberline Street.

The thin green lines represent the GREENBELT TRAILS that connect each cul-de-sac to the village shopping area and to the other villages in the community.  These trails would be for pedestrians and cyclists.
