An abandoned pile of containers are located 7.5 m from the edge of the outer lane of a two-lane highway, which has 3.4 – m lanes. The obstruction is situated on the inside of a 12° horizontal curve. Use metric arc basis. a. Calculate the minimum sight distance along the curve. b. Calculate the design speed for this curve c. If the design speed calculated from part b is increased by 20 kph, calculate the distance required for the movement of the obstruction
