Abstract

This paper concerns the quality of the design of urban local roads. It argues that debate on this subject needs to extend beyond the question of the adequacy of technical standards, to the issue of the adequacy of design in the broadest sense. It reviews the influence that standards have had on local road design, and concludes that design by standards does not guarantee a well designed result.
