A ramp from an expressway with a design speed of 30 mi/h connects with a local road, forming a T intersection. An additional lane is provided on the local road to allow vehicles from the ramp to turn right onto the local road without stopping. The turning roadway has stabilized shoulders on both sides and will provide for a onelane, one-way operation with no provision for passing a stalled vehicle. Determine the width of the turning roadway if the design vehicle is a single-unit truck. Use 0.08 for superelevation.

the width of the turning roadway = 15 ft

Explanation:

Given that:

A ramp from an expressway with a design speed(u) =  30 mi/h connects with a local road

Using 0.08 for superelevation(e)

The minimum radius of the curve on the road can be determined by using the expression:

where;

R= radius

= coefficient of friction

From the tables of coefficient of friction for a design speed at 30 mi/h ;

= 0.20

So;

R = 214.29 ft

R ≅ 215 ft

However; given that :

The turning roadway has stabilized shoulders on both sides and will provide for a onelane, one-way operation with no provision for passing a stalled vehicle.

From the tables of "Design widths of pavement for turning roads"

For a One-way operation with no provision for passing a stalled vehicle; this criteria falls under Case 1 operation

Similarly; we are told that the design vehicle is a single-unit truck; so therefore , it falls under traffic condition B.

As such in Case 1 operation that falls under traffic condition B  in accordance with the Design widths of pavement for turning roads;

If the radius = 215 ft; the value for the width of the turning roadway for this conditions = 15ft

Hence; the width of the turning roadway = 15 ft
