Kindly send just answers of all 3 questions please
![1.The design speed is:
1. the posted speed limit
2. the speed at which 85% of all vehicles are observed to travel under free-
flowconditions
3. the operating speed that drivers build up and are happy to settle at
4. the speed corresponding to the maximum capacity of the road
5. none of the above
2.Circular curves are not always required when:
1. there is a very large spiral between two straight sections
2. the two intersecting straight sections form a very small deflection angle
3. there are more than 3 lanes per direction
4. there is a vertical curve with very large radius
5. none of the above
3. Which one of the following is correct?
1.Sro has to be located within the tangent/straight section of the road
2. Sro has to be located 50% on the tangent and 50% on the circular curve in
casethe transition curve is too long
3. Sro has to be located 50% on the tangent and 50% on the circular curve only in
case the transition aurve is missing
4. Sro has to be located 50% on the tangent and 50% on the transition curve
