Roadway Horizontal Alignments II Author: Gregory Taylor Roadway horizontal alignments contain a series of horizontal tangents (straight roadway sections), circular curves, and spiral transitions. These show the proposed roadway in relation to the existing terrain and adjacent land conditions. Along with the vertical alignment (grades and vertical curves) and roadway cross-sections (lanes, shoulders, curbs, medians,…
