Aspects of Stopping-Sight Distance on Crest Vertical Curves

Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1998
In the present study a simple methodology is developed, by which the values of available sight distance, for any driver location on crest vertical curves (CVCs), can be precisely and directly calcu...

New Stopping Sight Distance Model for Use in Highway Geometric Design

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2000
Stopping sight distance is an important design parameter in that it defines the minimum sight distance that must be provided at all points along the highway. Thus, it influences geometric design values, construction costs, and highway safety. Stopping sight distance is defined as the sum of two components—brake reaction distance and braking distance ...

Balancing Urban Driveway Design Demands Based on Stopping Sight Distance

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2009
Many roadways in urban areas, especially dense commercial areas, are subjected to on-street and adjacent off-street parking demands; local access through driveways is an essential component of these complex urban corridors. Vehicles entering and exiting these driveways–-and their interaction with parked cars, other moving motorized vehicles, bicycles ...

Stop-Controlled Intersection Sight Distance: Minor Road on Tangent of Horizontal Curve

Journal of Transportation Engineering, 2009
Sight distance at the intersection of a minor road (controlled by a stop sign) and a major road is an important element of road safety. Several models have been recently developed for the analysis of sight distance at intersections involving horizontal curves on the major road.

Design policies for sight distance at stop-controlled intersections based on gap acceptance

Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, 1999
Abstract The current AASHTO policy for sight distance at stop-controlled intersections is based on a model of the acceleration performance of a minor-road vehicle turning left or right onto a major road and the deceleration performance of the following major-road vehicle.

Median design to provide stopping sight distance along horizontal curves in urban freeways

2022
A new approach to design the roadway and its roadside is necessary to provide both stopping sight distance and design flexibility along horizontal curves. This study focuses on median, dividing, and side strips to provide the stopping sight distance along not-straight paths.
