Drainage Arrangements fora Rotary Intersection and Inot Dotais FENERAL GUIDELINES FOR SELECTION OF i: APPROPRIATE TYPE DESIGNS FOR ‘a ROAD INTERSECTIONS fi evolved fora wide varoty of intersection types, road wicths and trafic ows. are ilustrative in nature and can be fed into most situations with minor Complicated intersections would, however, need to be specially designed signs presented cover at-grade intersections of 4-4ane/2anelsingle- al Highways (NH) wit 4dana/2danesingle dane intersecting roads which could category of National Highway (NH), State Highway (SH), Major District Road 9f District Road (ODA) or Vilage Road (VR), Intersection types covered could be modified onthe basis of Y-intersecton designs, The designs could sed for the state roads with appropriate modications. ‘SEPARATED INTERSECTIONS (NTERCHANGES) Qur types of interchanges have been covered viz. Diamond, Trumpet, At : Bary and Atgrade controlled intersection with NH fying ove. FIGICE OF APPROPRIATE STANDARD DESIGN : choice of intersection design is govemed essential by trate volume and ber lanes on each ofthe intersecting roads and the angles of crossing. Tables to IV gives a matrix ofthe various types of intersections presented which fbe used as a guide to select the appropriate design (e) fr a given situation. Reference number of each crawing aso inicats the situation to which a partoular ertains. For example, in the Drawing Number below, ” INH 4 ingicates that the main highway is a 4-ane National Highway and SHMDA 1 incicates that crossing highway is either a single ane State Highway or @ MDR and ‘the Drawing in question is rinth in the series. X-3 indicates that the intersection is a ‘Square 4-armed crossing and itis third inthe series of type design for eross-oad type of intersections. 3. DESIGN STANDARDS : ‘3.1 Designs are based generally on the IRC Draft standard for Design of At-Gravia Intersections (under fralsaion) Principal design elements adopted are summarised below. 32 TRAFFIC ‘Traffic figures wherever incicated are the average daly traffic (ADT) volume i, PPCUs at the end ofthe design period (generally 10 year). Peak hour tratic has been ‘assumed as 8 per cent of ADT. 33 DESIGN veNICLE Designs developed are suitable for plying of single unit rucksfous chassis and for somitralles upto wheel base of 12 m. 14 DESIGN SPEED Design speed adopted fr design of auxiliary lanes is 60 percent of ha highway ‘peed in open areas. However, turing speed for right angle turns at intersections is. restricted 10 20 Kmph and loft tums to a maximum of 30 Kmph, 38 TURNING RADIUS ‘A minimum turing radius of 15 m has been adopted for right tums which wil Permit a tuming speed of 20 Kmph. Maximum radius for left tums is 30 m which wil Permit a tuming speed of 20 Kmph. However, fo lower category of roads Ike Vilage FRoads, a tuming radius of 15 m has been adopted which will also hold good for any Permited aocess connections to acjacent properties. junctions with greater proportion Cleft turning heavy vohicies, three-centred compound curves (45-15-45 m racius) have been used to reduce isk of vehicles swinging out oftheir lane and keeping paved area of the intersection tothe minimum, {6 LANE WIDTH AND NUMBER OF LANES ‘A minimum lane width of 3.5 m has been provided. The number of lanes to be Provided atthe intersection wil be governed by peak hour atic volume in each direction Of travel. For single lane movements, a minimum with of 5:5 m is adopted to enable Vehicles to move past a stalled car. For two-lane roads between kerbs, a minimum 7.5 'm width is provided. Maximum capacty ofa lane is assumed ta be 1200 PCU/HR, ‘Widening of cantageway is achioved by a taper of not lass than 1 in 15 “ {47 LENGTH OF AUXIUARY LANES (Inclucing 50 m taper). fceleration lane is provided whan tuming tafe trom side read merging with INH traffc is more than 400 PCUsih. The maximum total length of acceleration lane. provided is 330 m (Including 80 m taper) which is sutable for 30 Kmph entrance cane 3.8. WOTH OF MEDIAN ISLAND ‘A minimum with of 1.5 m has been adopted where these are introduced in the absence of @ continuous median. Minimum length of mecian iiand is kept as @ re Maximum length will be determined by site requirements; 19 CHANNELING ISLANDS Ghannelsing islands have been provided depending on the volume of turning Uralfe and importance o! the road.

Trafic signals may be added i cated by wartants gen in IRC : 93-1986. 4. INTERSECTION TYPE AND SELECTED GEOMETRY 441 CROSS-NTERSECTIONS, In ths type of intarsection, treatment is given to prevent high speed crossing ‘movements by imiting the crossing speed and by requiting the minor rad tthe ive way and alowing major road traffc to proceed through the intersecto: Ditferent treatments of intersection reas have been developed to take ca essing road situations in rural areas.
