The minor arterial street system includes all arterials not classified as a principal and contains facilities that place more emphasis on land access than the higher system.  This system should have the following characteristics:

(1) Serves trips of moderate length at a somewhat lower level of travel mobility than principal arterials.

(2) Provides access to geographic areas smaller than those served by the higher system.

(3) Provides intracommunity continuity but doesn't penetrate identifiable neighborhoods.
