A snout house is a house with a protruding Garage house garage that takes up most of the street frontage, squeezing out front yards and making it hard to find the front door. ref http www.doubletongued.org index.php dictionary snout house ref ref name boston globe http www.boston.com news globe ideas gallery sprawl definition from The Boston Globe ref This layout is worked into many styles of houses, including single family houses, duplex es and other multifamily structures. Architectural features Such design is typically employed in the United States and Canada to make a dwelling affordable for a family of modest income by combining a narrow lot sometimes as small as 35 feet 10.6 metres in width with a minimum 5 feet setback from each side line which results in a 25 foot 7.5 metre wide house. When a two car garage is added typically of up to 20 feet 6 metres or better in width, with no back of lot access, the garage dominates the frontage. This design can be contrasted with older developments in which a single detached garage is placed at the back corner of the lot, typically added on after the original construction, and which is built with zero lot line clearance and is accessible since the house is not centered on the lot, but rather offset to one side. Such layouts do not meet modern building codes, however. citationneeded date June 2011 One means to address this is to place an attached single car garage, set back from the house frontage, on one side, perhaps with zero lot line clearance which requires more fire resistant construction and special development permitting. Where investment is made in a Planned Unit Development PUD , the storage of vehicles for several residences can be grouped and placed out of the way, although this tends to not be favored by buyers owing to the inconvenience and reduced security of the arrangement. gallery Image Snouthouses.jpg Front of snout houses in br Schererville, Indiana Image Olthof homes rear view.jpg Rear view of a tract ... more details
In the field of road transport , a turnaround is a type of Junction traffic junction that allows traffic travelling in one direction on a road to efficiently make a U turn maneuver U turn to reverse course and travel the opposite direction typically without backing up or making dangerous maneuvers in the middle of the traffic stream. While many junction types permit U turns, the term turnaround often applies to road junctions built specifically for this purpose. Junction types designed specifically for U Turns The following road junction types are designed specifically to allow U Turns. The Texas U turn allows traffic travelling on one direction of a one way frontage road , running parallel to a highway, to cross the highway via a grade separation and turn onto the other frontage road, traveling in the opposite direction. The term refers to roadworks which are specially built for this purpose and does not refer to use of an intersecting roadway to navigate between frontage roads. ref http www.texashighwayman.com tex.htm Texas Highwayman s Primer on Texas Highways ref The Michigan left allows traffic travelling in one direction on a divided highway typically one with traffic light s and at grade intersections to perform a U turn through the median. A cul de sac allows a smooth turnaround at the end of a dead end street. Sometimes, a modified jughandle reverse jughandle is used to permit U turns. Traffic wishing to turn around executes a left turn across oncoming traffic onto the jughandle, but rather than merging onto a crossing road, the jughandle turns back and merges into the road just left, in the opposite direction.
