Students acquire skills to design two options of the route in plan, with calculation of elements of all horizontal and transitional curvatures, longitudinal profiles of the options with vertical curves, to determine the cross-sectional dimensions, to compare options by geometric and transport-operational characteristics and to select an option. The project contains also extension, superelevation and study of the sight distance on horizontal curvature, drawing of cartogram of traffic load and selection of road junction scheme, geometric solution of the junction in plan, grade line determination of the main directions and links, drainage, signaling and marking plans.
