[A gateway] is not a gate. Chokers are usually located within the block or at intersections. Gateways are considered more dramatic and provide identity to a neighborhood. The exact configuration of the gateway treatment will depend upon the location of the gateway, i.e., conflicts with driveways. 1, record 1, English, - gateway

Les mesures d'apaisement de la circulation automobile [...] la rue parle aux automobilistes, il faut qu'elle leur dise dans son aménagement même qu'il est raisonnable de rouler lentement; par des aménagements qui visuellement indiquent à l'automobiliste quittant une artère, voie dédiée au transit automobile, qu'il s'engage dans un milieu où les gens vivent. L'aménagement doit embellir et complexifier le milieu pour que l'automobiliste se sente effectivement dans un milieu de vie : effet de porte à l'aide d'entrées de rues aménagées, effet de zig-zag à l'aide de stationnement en angle ou de plantation appropriée d'arbres [...] 1, record 1, French, - entr%C3%A9e%20de%20rue%20am%C3%A9nag%C3%A9e
