I am looking for Road & rail way design. My application is to plan a road project, where the program should optimize the allignment, valume calculations, curve designs section ploting etc..
I suggest you Land Development + Civil Survey, it is the most complete program, and have an Autocad Platform easy to use. And you have the support of Autodesk.
