When a state highway intersects a one way approach, in non-turning quadrants the radius shall be a maximum of 10' (3m). 5. On the National Truck Network and Green oute intersections where trucks turn, a WB-65 Interstate Semi-Trailer is the design vehicle. 6.

An intersecting road as herein defined may be a city street, county road or state highway. 2. wide lanes are to be used unless conditions require narrower lanes. 3. On horizontal curves, the cross slope on turn lanes should be the same as the through pavement. Where physical constraints do not make this practical the maximum allowable algebraic difference in cross-slope between the turn lane and mainline is 5%, with a desirable maximum of 4%. 4. See Standard Plan -30-Series for curb and gutter details. 5. Clear vision areas should be considered at all intersections. 6. Alternate Typical A may be used when construction and maintenance make the 13.5' (4.1m) curb setback undesirable or the crossroad is curbed. 7. Current AASHTO "A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets" and MDOT Guidelines should be used for sight distance requirements. 8. See Traffic & Safety Note 614A for guidance on nearside and farside lane drops at intersections. 9. These design concepts are for new construction. Where modification may be needed for retrofitting to existing road features, consult the Geometric eview and Congestion Analysis Unit, Division of Operations.
