Abstract
This paper deals with the detailed design of a road from the stage where its general location has been fixed. It covers the design process from this point, including the selection of standards, the development of horizontal and vertical alignment and their combination into a satisfactory form, the design of the roadside and the use of design aids and special techniques.
