.44 NORTH HARBOR SPECIFIC PLAN 7.1.8 Newhope Street Newhope Street currently is a four-lane roadway with a continuous two-way left-turn lane. On-street parking is prohibited along Newhope Street between Fifth Street and Westminster Avenue. Parking is permitted south of Fifth Street. Left-turn lanes are provided at the signalized intersections. Newhope Street is classifted as a secondary arterial with a right-of-way width of 80 feet and a curb-to-curb width of 64 feet. 7.1.9 Fairview Street Faitview Street is a four-lane roadway with a continu- ous, two-way left-turn lane. South of First Street to Edinger Avenue, it is a four-lane divided roadway with turn lanes provided at key intersections. On-street parking is prohibited between First Street and Westminster Avenue, but it is allowed south of First Street to Edinger Avenue. 7.1.10 Figueroa Street Figueroa is a two-lane roadway classified as a local col- lector street with a right-of-way width of 60 feet and curb-to-curb width of 44 feet. Although outside of the project area, the zoning ordinance allows commercial development to abut Figueroa Street but prohibits such development from deriving access from Figueroa Street. Access may only be provided from Harbor Boulevard. Parking is only prohibited at certain times for street cleaning. 7.1.11 Susan SWeet Susan Street is a two-lane roadway classified as a local street with a right-of-way width of 60 feet, and curb-to- curb width of 36 feet. The intersections with First Street and Fifth Street are controlled by stop signs. 7.2 HIERARCHY OF STRv.~ 1S The hierarchy of streets for the North Harbor Specific Plan area reflects the Santa Aha General Plan's Circulation Element and the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial Highways. This hierarchy it shown on Figure 7.1, and typical cross-sections for each street type are shown on Figures 6.2 through 6.3. 7.2.1 Major Arterial Highways Harbor Boulevard, First Street and Westminster Avenue are all classified as major arterial highways with a right-of-way width of 120 feet. As such, each street is ultimately expected to have thre~ travel lanes in each direction divided by a median. 7.2..2 Modified-Major Arterial This type of road may remain on the County MPAH or a City circulation plan in lieu of a major arterial in already developed areas. A narrower right-of-way than the 120 feet may be developed, but not less than 100 feet in such cases accommodate a six-lane divided ladlity with a capadty of 30,000 - 45,,000 vehicles per day at Level of Service "C". This requires on-street parking and striping for six lanes where practical, park- ing and bus turnouts. ?.23 Secondav] Arterial Highways McFadden Avenue, Hazard Avenue west of Harbor Boulevard, and Fifth St~'t east of Harbor Boulevard are designated as secondary arterial highways with a right-of-way width of 80 feet and a curb-to-curb width of 64 feet. Two undivided travel lanes in each direction will be provided ultimately. Note that the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial Highway~ des- ignates Hazard Avenue as a secondary arterial high- way throughout its entire length in the planning area. However, because it dead ends at the Willowick Golf Course, and because it only serves a local residential street function east of Harbor Boulevard, Hazard Avenue has been designated as a local street east of Harbor Boulevard in the City of Santa Ana. 72A Local Collector Streets Figueroa is dassified as a local collector street with a fight-of-way width of 60 feet and a curb-to-curb width of 36 feet. This will accommodate two travel lanes in each direction with on-street parking. The remainder of the public roadways in the planning area are designated as local streets with a right.of-way width of 60 feet and a curb-to-curb width of 36 feet. Of the local streets, Jackson Street is the longest and pro- vides the best access to the arterial roadways. As such, it serves more as a collector street than as a local street. No further widening of Jackson Street is proposed, however.
