摘要: The Guidelines for Design and Management of Historic Roads have been developed to address a specific type of historic property - historic roads. They are intended to demonstrate how the inherent flexibility in the current policies, manuals, criteria, rules, standards, and data sets that underlie the transportation planning and project development process can be used to preserve historic roads and roads in historic districts and settings. The guidance outlines some of the approaches encouraging use of flexibility and how to apply it to develop balanced solutions tailored to all types of projects, from new construction to addressing site specific safety problems. Achieving balanced designs where history matters does not require different or special criteria or policies; the ways to do so efficiently are already in place. It is the practice itself that benefits from recognizing and using available means to craft outcomes that respect and preserve historic significance without compromising safety and operations. This guidance is specific to historic roads and roads in historic settings because they are frequently part of transportation projects, but it is in no way exclusive to them. The approaches described herein are systemic and can be applied to any project involving historic properties or other cultural or environmental considerations.
