A major roadway with a speed limit of 35 mi/h has an intersection that has no intersection control with a minor roadway at a right angle. A building is located next to the intersection at a distance of 50 ft from the center of the near lane on the major roadway and 40 ft from the center of the near lane on the minor roadway. At what speed for the minor roadway is the intersection safe? Grades are approximately level.
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
QUESTION 4 What is the calculated stopping sight distance (ft) for a -3% grade when the design speed is 55 mph, assuming the AASHTO recommended deceleration rate and perception-reaction time.
A 4-lane divided highway has a highway grade of -1.5%. The minor road approach grade is 3.5%. The design speed is 45 mph for the major road and 40 mph for the minor road. Find the left turn departure sight distance for a passenger car turning left from the minor road to the major road, The answer should be in feet.
How much space should be cleared between an obstruction and the center of a roadway (in ft) for a horizontal curve with 2-11 ft lanes if the design speed is 67 mph and the radius of the curve is 1,037?
