The design speed for two-lane road is 80 kmph. When a design vehicle with a wheel base of 6.6 m is negotiating a horizontal curve on that road, the off - tracking is measured as 0.096 m. The required widening of carriageway of the two lane road on the curve is approximately. 1.0.55 m 2.0.65 m 3.0.75 m 4.0.85 m highway-engineering highway-geometric-design

1. The stopping sight distance on a curved section of a road is 500 ft. The superelevation of the curve is 4.5%. The current radius of the curve is 900 ft. What should be the design speed on the curve? (Using AASHTO tables)
Q9: Calculate the right of way of rural divided four-lane highway has depressed median and it is constructed on embankment. The median width is 4.0 m, embankment height is 6m, lane width is 3.5 m, shoulder width is 2.60 m and side slope is 1:3 (V:H).
Please USE 3.0 instead of 2.5 for the rolling terrain. Thanks! 6.20 A divided multilane highway in a recreational area has four lanes (two lanes in each direction) and is on rolling terrain. The highway has 10-ft lanes with a 6-ft right-side shoulder and a 3-ft left-side shoulder. The posted speed is 50 mi/h. Previously, there were 4 access points per mile, but recent development has increased the number of access points to 12 per mile. Before development, the peak- hour factor was 0.95 and the directional hourly volume was 2200 vehicles with 13% heavy vehicles. After development, the peak-hour directional flow is 2600 vehicles with the same vehicle percentages and peak-hour factor. What is the level of service before and after the development?
Please answer question below and include all steps on how you got the answer
Vertical and Horizontal Alignment 1. A new interstate is being built with a design LOS of 'C'. Given the road is being designed with wide shoulders on level terrain, a design hourly volume of 4000 vehicles in each direction, a peak hour factor of 0.95, a free flow speed of 75 mph, and an expected 25% trucks. How many lanes should the interstate have in each direction? а. 1 b. 2 С. 3 d. e. 5
Subject: Transportation engineering Read the question carefully and give me right solution according to the question A horizontal curve on a two-lane highway (12-ft lanes) is designed for 45 mi/h with a 4% superelevation. Considering the minimum radius for horizontal curve, how many feet have to be cleared from the lane’s shoulder edge to provide adequate stopping sight distance?

A vehicle travels at a speed of 80km/hr on a straight section of a road. The driver keeps increasing the speed constantly. What is the role of the curves for a vehicle travelling along with one of the straights?
Design speed of a six-lane undivided highway is 70 mph. A circular section of the highway has level grade, 10-ft wide lane, and the radius of the highway centerline is 1000 ft. Calculate the minimum side clearance required from the edge of the innermost lane on the highway to provide adequate sight distance for safe travel
There is a need for conducting a design check for a horizontal curve (flat terrain) for an intermediate speed highway in rural Victoria. Given the design speed is 80kmph and superelevation is 7%. The provided horizontal curve radius is 700m. Would the designed curve radius will be sufficient to attain the superelevation? If not, what would be the correct radius for horizontal curve? When suggesting a new radius please check and make sure that the provide superelevation is higher (>7%) than required.
