Neighborhood Electric Vehicle - Community Design

Community Design

Some communities are designed to separate neighborhoods from commercial and other areas, connecting them with relatively high speed thoroughfares on which NEVs cannot go, legally or safely. As a result, these vehicles are most common in communities that provide separate routes for them or generally accommodate slow speed traffic.

Some communities designed specifically with NEVs in mind include:

  • Celebration, Florida
  • The Villages, Florida

Other communities that permit NEVs:

  • Alameda, California
  • Put-in-Bay, Ohio
  • Playa Vista, Los Angeles, California
  • Lincoln, California
  • Coronado, California
  • Leaf Rapids, Manitoba, Canada

Famous quotes containing the words community and/or design:

    Human life in common is only made possible when a majority comes together which is stronger than any separate individual and which remains united against all separate individuals. The power of this community is then set up as “right” in opposition to the power of the individual, which is condemned as “brute force.”
    Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.
    Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
