Roadway Design

Design and layout of a roadway for public travel involves a complex matrix of requirements and considerations. Our engineers understand these requirements and apply the principles of Traffic Engineering, Accident Reconstruction, and Human Factors to evaluate the contribution of roadway design to a specific accident. This analysis can consider issues including:

• Road geometry
• Roadway safety requirements
• Horizontal and vertical curves
• Intersection
• Sight distance
• Parking facilities
• Pavement marking
• Truck accommodations
• Highway - Railroad grade crossings
• Construction work zone
• Guardrails
• Bicycle and pedestrian accommodations
• Pavement skid friction
• Traffic control devices
• Human Factors
