If the PC is at station 3 + 65.00 ft, what is the length (ft) of roadway between the first full station and the second full station on the curve? Response Feedback: The first full station occurs at 4+00 and the next full station occurs at 5+00

A horizontal curve on a four-lane (two lane in each direction) highway (11-ft lanes) has PC at station 124+30 and PT at station 130 + 15. The central angle is 40 degrees, the superelevation is 0.12, and 23.5 ft is cleared (for sight distance) from the inside edge of the innermost lane. Determine a maximum safe speed (assuming current design standards) to the nearest 5 mi/h.
A curve of 100 m radius (e=8.0 % and fs=0.14) is located at a section of an existing rural highway which restricts the safe speed to 55 % of the design speed causing a high accident rate. To reduce the accident rate, a new curve is to be designed. Determine the minimum radius of this curve if the safe speed should be increased to the design speed. Assume the same values of e and fs.
A horizontal curve is being designed to connect two tangents that intersect on a rural collector road with a specified design volume of 2500 veh/day (i.c. design speed 60 mph). It is expected that, because of right-of-way restriction, a large billboard will be placed at a distance of 50 ft from the centerline of the inside lane. If the terrain can be described as level and only a minimal amount of snow is expected on the road, determine the minimum radius of curve. Assume maximum superelevation rate (e) of 0.1 and fs=0.12.
