Disconnected Pedestrian

Should I entitle this "Disconnected Pedestrian" or "Isolated Pedestrian"? This is the page I just created to go at the beginning of my "The Solution" chapter. This page starts before all the precedents are shown. Does this connect the concept better so its not such a blunt start?

Connectivity Diagram Revisited

Thoughts on the Connectivity Diagram? Should I break apart the nature and people connections? They could be 2 separate diagrams and I could also locate them side by side.

Track Images

Hey Susan;
Check out my google docs:
I spent a little time on these images tonight - I took Herb's advice and took photos of a real life working track, then did a photo montage on top of the photo to try to get the concept of the designed track above Wal Mart across. Can you take a look at this and tell me if you think I need to use both photos or just the one that I've manipulated? My text coincides with using both, but I can change that if needed. I just need to denote and add the floor plan and I'll be finished with design of this portion of the circuit. Any other thoughts on this spread?

Thanks.

Updated Photo Monologue & Title Pg

Check out my google docs to see my revised photo monologue:
arranged them topically - non-safety of pedestrians, sidewalk conditions, and obstructions/berms on sidewalks.

Also, please see the revised (less colorful) title page.

Updated Final Presentation

Hey Susan;

Here is my latest and updated presentation. I'd like some input on which 2 renderings to have printed. I'll talk to you around 6:30 your time tonight.

Perspective at Activity Node (above Wal Mart)

People and Green Zones are highlighted below. Indoor park is on the bottom level with track. Upper track for those walking or moving slower with strollers, etc. can be on the top level.

Underground Pathing - Section & Perspective Sketch

The section shows the pathing from the surface bus station at Carr's transitioning to the underground pathway.

The perspective sketch shows the sensory elements being utilized within the underground pathway. As people walk by, sensory elements are tapped into as people trigger motion lights.

Tomorrow's Presentation_Changes to Boards

So, my original presentation is posted under google docs. The only changes I made to the presentation dealt with the renderings - updating 1 page and adding 2 more pages.

Bridge Clearances for Sky Circuit

For almost 30 years, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Military Traffic Management Command Transportation Engineering Agency (MTMCTEA) of the Department of Defense (DOD) have cooperated to meet the demands of military traffic on the Interstate System, particularly in the area of vertical clearances. This need has been met with the adoption of standards by FHWA for vertical clearance on the Interstate that require a clear height of structures over the entire roadway width, including the useable width of shoulder, of 4.9 meters for the rural Interstate. In urban areas, the 4.9-meter clearance is applied to a single route, with other Interstate routings in the urban area having at least a 4.3-meter vertical clearance.

Found this official information here:
http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/bridge/081597.htm

This means that any skyway pathing shall be a 4.3 meter clearance. Translated, this is a vertical clearance of 14'-2".
