Biker1 is right. The term "sub-standard" is used frequently and rather casually regarding streets and roads in The Villages.

TV streets and roads are in some areas sub-standard ONLY in the context of automobile/bicycle considerations. They are NOT sub-standard in any other way with respect to Florida Department of Transportation road construction specifications...including those specifying lane width.
