Jun 27, 2003 #4 ACtrafficengr Civil/Environmental Jan 5, 2002 1,641 0 0 US The AASHTO Roadside Design Guide is pretty much the basis for most states. For low volume roads (<400 vpd), the AASHTO Geometric Guidelines for Very Low Volume Roads is a bit more realistic. The RDG is available at http://www.transportation.org. Also, check yopur state's DOT website and look for their highway design manual. Upvote 0 Downvote
