Grade separations should be provided at intersections of divided rural highways if the ADT (fast vehicles only) on the €ross road within the next 5S years exceeds 5000. Where this traffic figure will be reached within the next 20 years, the need for such facilities should be kept in View for future construction. Grade separations across railways 7.7. Grade separations should be provided across existing railway crossings if the product of ADT (fast vehicles only) and the number of trains per day exceeds 50,000 within the next 5 years. For new sonstructions such as byepasses, grade separations should be provi- ded when this figure is greater than 25,000.IRC:92-2017 45.6 Road-User Benefits travel time and costs fore, an interchange 's At the crossing of a major arterial road with another road of similar category carrying heavy traffic When an at-grade intersection fails to cater the volume of traffic resulting in congestion and frequent blockage at the intersection e.g.. when total traffic of all the arms of Intersection exceeds 10,000 PCU per hour. High rate of fatal accidents at an at-grade intersection in spite of other traffic control or improvement measures. ‘When the topography is such that interchange is the only alternative that can be constructed economically, IRC:92-2017 64 Road Cross-Section The ramp may be for one-way or two-way operation. The two-way, divided type of cross-section should be used with a minimum median width of 1.2 m. The approach width of pavement to be provided for each way will depend on the design hour traffic volume expected to use the ramp. The base capacity and recommended design service volume of urban road sections are given in Table 6.3. The minimum width of shoulders should be 2 m of which at least 1 m should be paved. The shoulders should be properly delineated by means of pavement markings. The road markings may be provided as per the guidelines given in IRC!35 "Code of Practice for Road Markings” ‘Table 6.3 Base Capacity and Recommended Design Service Volume of Urban Road Sections No] Type of Carriageway and Road Width Capacity | Lane Capacity (eum) (eumiane) [two-lane Undivided (7.0 m) 2400 1200 ‘5000 1250 Four-lane Divice m) ‘5400 (2700), 1350 ‘Shclane Divided (11.0 m) ‘8400 (4200) 41400 Eight-lane Divided (14.0 m) 13600 (6800) 1700 Eightlane Divided Expressway (14.0 m) ‘3200 2300 Ten-lane Divided Urban Road (17.5 m) 10000 2000 Note: The values in parenthesis/brackets represents PCUs per hour per direction. ‘83.
