CHAPTER 2
DESIGN STANDARDS AND ALIGNMENT

PROPOSALS
2.1 General
A highway system development involves huge irreversible investments, and requires rigorous
modelling and analysis before the implementation decision is made. Objectives of setting
design standards is to confirm the proposed road with the codes of practice, to give a clear
picture of how the proposed facility would look like once implemented and also to maintain
uniformity throughout the corridor to achieve the desired purpose of the facility and to ensure
safety and comfort for the road users. Non-uniform or inadequate design standards lead to
confusion for the drivers to adapt to the changing road characteristics and cause accidents.
For the present Project it is proposed to follow design standards given in Indian Roads
Congress (IRC) codes of practice, guidelines and special publications, as well as applicable
MoRT&H circulars and reports. Where the said standards are silent for any particular element
of design, other standards, like, American Association of State Highway and Transport
Officials (AASHTO) Standards and Any other National or International Standard as
considered suitable shall be referred to and the one considered the best and relevant adopted.
2.2 Geometric Design
2.2.1 Base Plan
Base plan of the existing project road showing all natural and manmade features has been
prepared using the topographical survey data collected through Total Station Survey. All the
features within a band width of 60m have been captured with a unique description code
during the topographical survey along with the details of existing carriageway centreline,
edge of pavement, edge of shoulder, toe line of the embankment etc. This data has been
downloaded into the software environment to prepare the base plan. The following activities
elucidate the preparation of base plans in more details:
Download the data into software

Define main corridor features by joining the points of centreline, edge of pavement,
embankment toe line

REPORT ON
ALIGNMEN
T
Join the points with same description codes for all physical features like rivers,
buildings, religious structures, shops, telephone poles, electric poles, cross roads etc
within the above specified limits

Establish break lines for features such as edge of the road, shoulder, nalas, top and
bottom of ditches, etc;

Insert the details of existing cross drainage structures such as bridge number, span
arrangement etc.
Insert details of underground utility services collected from secondary sources.
Cross check the so prepared base plans by walkover surveys
Update and finalize the base plans with additional survey data if necessary.

counting and classifying the vehicles passing the survey station in both directions, in 15
minutes intervals. The counts were made separately for motorized and non-motorized traffic
as per the vehicle classification system.
The volume count data was processed and compiled using Excel Spread Sheet software
packages to get hourly and direction-wise classified traffic data.
3.3.2
Intersection Turning Movement Count Survey (TMC)
The surveys were conducted for one day (8 hours) to obtain classified turning movement at
the identified junctions. The data was collected by deploying enumerators to record data for
each hour within fifteen minutes intervals. All the surveys were conducted through trained
enumerators and were supervised by traffic engineers.

3.6 Traffic Forecast

Forecasting the traffic is an important element for planning and design of infrastructure
facility, especially when it is proposed to be taken up on a commercial format. The present
traffic demand will increase primarily due to the growth in activities earmarked for industrial
development besides socio economic characteristics of the traffic in influencing regions.
Estimation of traffic growth rates is further needed for deciding suitable development strategy
and assessing the financial viability of the project.
3.6.1 Growth of Vehicle Population
The vehicle population in the state is showing an increasing trend. The average number of
vehicles registered in the state has been increasing every year. The future growth pattern is
likely to be affected by the following factors:
Recent economic changes taking place in the project influence region

Future modal shift among the vehicle types, in road traffic as well as between various
modes.
Development of vehicle technology
Development of Industries and production of Agricultural products
3.6.2 Suggested Traffic Growth rates for the project road
As per the IRC guidelines, Five percent growth is to be considered for the
Determination of lane requirements/ project preparation and for financial
viability of the project.

CHAPTER 4
ALIGNMENT DESIGN AND PROPOSALS

4.1 General
Primary objective of highway design is to make improvements on the project road as per the
recommendations provided in the IRC guidelines and special publications of MORT&H.
These standards are required to establish the technical, economical, environmental, social,
and financial feasibility of the project. As discussed in the previous chapters, the project road
passes through plain terrain and hence the appropriate design speed for the respective terrain
classification is adopted for the design.
Highway design not only includes the geometric design of road sections, but also the design
of intersections, interchanges and provision of wayside amenities and facilities. Design of
road sections has been done according to the design standards set for the project and
improvements identified. This chapter describes the various features of the horizontal
alignment and highlights the design of alignment, intersections and other aspects related to
highway appurtenances.
4.2 Lane Configuration
As per our Scope of work and traffic survey conducted at location near Moorandahalli
(CH: 52+700 Km) Two Lane has been Proposed.
4.2 Geometric Design
4.2.1 Base Plan
Base plan of the existing project road showing all natural and manmade features has been
prepared using the topographical survey data collected through Total Station Survey. All the
features within a band width of 45m have been captured with a unique description code
during the topographical survey along with the details of existing carriageway centreline,
edge of pavement, edge of shoulder, toe line of the embankment etc. This data has been
downloaded into the software environment to prepare the base plan. The following activities
elucidate the preparation of base plans in more details:

Download the data into software

Define main corridor features by joining the points of centreline, edge of pavement,
embankment toe line
Join the points with same description codes for all physical features like rivers,
buildings, religious structures, shops, telephone poles, electric poles, cross roads etc
within the above specified limits

Establish break lines for features such as edge of the road, shoulder, nalas, top and
bottom of ditches, etc;

Insert the details of existing cross drainage structures such as bridge number, span
arrangement etc.
Insert details of underground utility services collected from secondary sources.
Cross check the prepared base plans by walkover surveys
Update and finalize the base plans with additional survey data if necessary
4.2.2 Horizontal Alignment Design

The horizontal alignment design for the project road is done using most sophisticated road
design software MX Roads. The design standards corresponding to a design speed of
65kmph - 80kmph. Extensive field checks to verify the feasibility of the proposed alignment
have been carried out and suitable modifications to the alignment have been done wherever
considered essential to safeguard sensitive elements. It can be observed from the base plan
that the existing alignment of the project corridor consists of many horizontal curves and few
steep vertical curves.
The main criterion that has been followed in finalizing the alignment includes:
19
Available ROW from the existing centreline;
Minimum land acquisition;
Location of utility lines;
Abutting land use;
Adjacent cultural properties;
Adjacent socially sensitive structures;
Geometric improvements necessary;
Location and type of trees required to be cut;
Transmission line towers; and
Waterlogged Areas / Ponds.

4.2.3 Conceptual Design of Horizontal Alignment

The design standards corresponding to 65kmph and 80kmph have been adopted in general for
the project road to ensure uniform and consistent design standards for safety reasons.
Locations of horizontal curves have been checked for the adequacy of radius for the set
design speed. All the curves satisfy the requirements of design standards for a design speed of
65-80 kmph.
The Alignment of the project road starts at CH: 0+000 Km of MDR at Kolar and ends at
Kolar @ CH 27+500 Km of MDR. The total length of the project stretch is 27.500 km in
Kolar district.
This alignment is designed for the speed of 65 - 80 Kmph throughout the project stretch.

4.3 Right of Way

As per IRC standards, the RoW should normally be 45m, but can vary in the range of 30m to
60m. The land width requirement for the Project road shall be assessed depending upon the
extent of the existing RoW and the proposed improvements. The minimum berm width
required between the Toe of embankment to RoW boundary is 5m keeping in view the width
of longitudinal drain at the outer end of RoW as 2m. This is required to accommodate tree
plantation and for the vehicle driver to bring the vehicle under control in the event of swerving
off and leaving the roadway.

4.4 Existing Intersections

There are many intersections along with cross roads having bituminous surfacing and falling
into the different categories of Rural roads, ODR, MDR and SH, most of them being rural
roads. The project road provides direct access to many villages.
Based on turning moments, detailed designs shall be carried during Detailed Project Report
preparation, keeping in view the guidelines given in IRC: SP-41-1994 and MoRT&H Designs
for Intersections. In this stage of project, all these intersections are divided into two categories
as major and minor, depending on their importance, and the necessary improvements have
been proposed accordingly.

4.5 Land Acquisition

The proposed project road is widened symmetrically by retaining the existing centreline for
most part. At the locations where the curves are improved and re-alignment is proposed, the
proposed alignment will deviate from the existing centreline. Land should be acquired at those
locations where the proposed alignment goes beyond the available RoW. Following table
shows the area to be acquired at re-alignment locations.
