Neighborhoods such as Rio Vista, Blanco Gardens, <br />Sunrise Acres, and WallaeeAdditionhave rectangular grid patterns with longer block lengths of <br />700'-1200'. Outside of the central city, street networks are curvilinear and fragmented due to <br />large-scale commercial and multi -family development. <br />The Union PacificRailroadandthe I-35 highwaysystemare significant pedestrianbarriers that <br />span the entire length of the city. The cityhas nineteen at -grade rail crossings that also impact <br />transit schedule reliability. In addition, several state highways, farm -to -market roads, and ranch <br />roads limit pedestrian access due to their high vehicular speeds and lack of sidewalks. <br />HIGHWAY OR ROAD WITH SPEEDS >= 40MiPH f <br />RAILROAD <br />r s t <br />TEXAS STATE <br />UNIVERSITY ° <br />, <br />SAIIA, ]III III <br />", <br />l� <br />i ; o [rrr, (iIIyo[f ;i lirl IV trr;(',)s <br />�` �'U��m�umamioi�vn�uw���mm�ii�i��u�w�urua��y�ewmunnrrmaa�a <br />60 <br />U°I i:)WO� ["] <br />NeIso n\Nyg as rd Consulting Associates, Inc.
