neutral  Matheus Chaud: Desculpe, Gilmar, mas em todas as definições que encontrei de "caixa de rua", não seria bem isso: https://goo.gl/zIA3lc

  -> I would translate the full term in question as "pavement around the manhole cover" in the given context. I can't see how your "right-of-way" fits in the sentence posted by Andre Lange. Anyway, we agree to disagree :)

street width; total right-of-way width


Explanation:
http://www.montecastelo.sc.gov.br/planodiretor-29.php

CAIXA DE RUA – Parte do logradouro destinada ao rolamento de veículos, incluindo passeio público.



http://www.cityofchicago.org/dam/city/depts/cdot/StreetandSi...

Total Right-of-Way Width
The total street right-of-way widths resulting from these elements are shown in Table 1 and Table 2. The minimum widths in Table 1 range from 39 feet to 57 feet, depending on the one-way or two-way traffic operation, and the presence of on-street parking. The minimum right-of-way widths in Table 2 for streets in low-density residential (RS zoning) or manufacturing districts range from 37 feet to 55 feet. A one-way roadway with no parking should generally be avoided; a narrow one-way roadway width might be appropriate for a short distance between other segments where parking is provided.

(os "elements" são mostrados anteriormente e incluem a parte onde circulam os veículos e a calçada, pelo que entendi).

Aqui fala bastante de caixa de rua:

http://www.cmva.sc.gov.br/fotos/arq_plano_diretor_2014_06_24...

Alguns trechos:

caixa de rua: conjunto de faixas, normalmente contidas entre meio-fios, que compõem as pistas veiculares do arruamento

canteiro central: faixa que divide pistas da caixa de rua, formando prioritariamente trechos verdes

pista de rolamento: é a parte da caixa de rua destinada a circulação dos veículos

Sempre que possível o pavimento da caixa de rua deve priorizar materiais permeáveis, que promovam a percolação das águas pluviais, se não nas pistas de rolamento, ao menos nas vagas e pistas auxiliares
