TRANSPORTATION AND CIRCULATION, Chapter 2streets would be extended to serve new planned residentialdevelopment on all sides of the city.Relocation of SR 65 and the Union Pacific railroad tracks to the eastof the existing Downtown, parallel to Jasper Lane, could dramaticallychange the circulation and development characteristics of centralWheatland. Relocation of these two important elements of the city’scirculation system continues to be evaluated.ROADWAYCLASSIFICATIONSRoadways serve two functions that tend to conflict from a designstandpoint: provide mobility and provide property access. High andconstant speeds are desirable for mobility, while low speeds are moredesirable for property access. A functional classification systemprovides for specialization in meeting the access and mobilityrequirements of the development permitted under the General Plan.Local streets emphasize property access; arterials emphasize highmobility for through-traffic; and collectors attempt to achieve abalance between both functions.Figure 2-1, the Circulation Diagram, presents the official functionalclassification of existing and proposed streets, roadways, andhighways in Wheatland. The hierarchy of the functionalclassifications in the city consists of principal arterials, minorarterials, collectors, and local roads and streets as described below.The Circulation Diagram depicts the arterial and collector roadwaysystem in Wheatland. All other roadways not identified on theCirculation Diagram are classified as local streets.Arterials are new roadways that emphasize mobility with limitedaccess. These include freeways, expressways, and those arterials thatare specifically designed to provide a high level of mobility withlimited access to adjoining properties.Transitioning Arterials are existing arterials that interconnect withand augment the new arterial system while providing a somewhatlower level of travel mobility due to less stringent access limitations.Collectors provide a balanced function of land access and mobilitywithin residential neighborhoods and commercial and industrialareas.Local Roads and Streets have a primary function to provide directaccess to abutting lands and connections to the higher orderfunctional classifications.Table 2-1 lists the City’s standards for the right-of-way required forlocal, collector, and arterial streets. Note that these standards applyonly to City streets; State highways are not subject to local standards.Wheatland General Plan Policy Document, Part II 2-2July 11, 2006
