Design templates for each road type

srkulhalli - 8-APR-2009

Design Example

srkulhalli - 8-APR-2009

Here we run through a real life example of a stretch of a road. We will look at the current state of this stretch of road, go through its uses as listed in section 4, and see the requirements of each of its uses as mentioned in section 5.
