Comments:

Broward County adopted the Context Sensitive Corridor designation into the Trafficways Plan to allow Complete Streets improvements such as on-street parking and mid-block crossings. Trafficways eligible for Context Sensitive Corridor designation must traverse a mixed-use future land use designation (RAC, LAC, TOD, TOC, or MU-R), and local governments must provide appropriate supporting information to identify the design/performance criteria for the subject corridor.

Two trafficways are currently designated as Context Sensitive Corridors: NW 3rd St in Pompano Beach between I-95 and Dixie Hwy; and Dixie Hwy in Hollywood between Pembroke Rd and Sheridan St

The Broward County Trafficways Plan Map and supporting documentation are available on the Broward County Planning Council's website under Publications Available for Download
