Example CSD Projects

Introduction

In the last few decades, communities have increased awareness of historical, cultural and community values that play a major role in driving the community outlook and shaping the community.  There are several projects in Georgia and throughout the country that have encompassed CSD principles and have been designed and constructed to meet the specific needs and desires of the community.

 

The following is a selection of projects that illustrate application of CSD principles in different capacities. These case studies were assembled from GDOT and various other resources listed in the reference section of the manual. The case studies are chosen to be geographically diverse and illustrate a wide range of project contexts. These case studies demonstrate that CSD principles can be applied in an urban, rural or a suburban setting.

To view additional GDOT transportation case studies and project visit the GDOT Transportation Plans and Programs Web Page at: http://www.dot.state.ga.us/specialsubjects/transplans_prog/index.shtml#transprojects.  In summary, these GDOT and national case studies show how project success and acceptance can be achieved by applying the right resources to provide transportation solution that satisfies the purpose and the need of the project.
