7.2.3 Transitions to Four-Lane Divided Highways
Typical transitions from a two-lane to a four-lane divided highway are shown in
.
Transition geometrics design criteria is based on the highest design speed of the two roadways.
The transition should be visible to the driver approaching from either direction and median openings should not be permitted within one-quarter mile of the transition area.Transition areas should be located so that obstructions such as restrictive width bridges or underpasses or other fixed objects are not within the no-passing zone of the two-lane highway approach.
