1. N_o._Highway Edge Curb (Cut Section) <br /> <br />From the edge of the traveled way or pavement to the outer <br />edge of the shoulder, the vertical profile shall be the <br />same as the pitch of the shoulder. <br /> <br />From the outer edge of the shoulder to the low point at the <br />ditch line (or over a culvert) the maximum allowable down- <br />ward gradient shall be eight (8) percent. <br /> <br />Beyond the ditch line (or culvert) the maximum allowable <br />gradient shall be eight percent (8%) for commercial drive- <br />ways and fifteen percent (1S%) for other driveways, <br /> <br />2. No Highway Edge Curb (Fill Section) <br /> <br />From the edge of the traveled way or pavement to the outer <br />edge of the shoulder, the vertical profile shall be the same <br />as the pitch of the shoulder. <br /> <br />Beyond the outer edge of the shoulder, the maximum allowable <br />upward gradient shall be eight percent (8%) for commercial <br />driveways and fifteen percent (15%) for other driveways. <br /> <br />3. With Highway Edge Curb <br /> <br />The driveway profile shall slope upward from the gutter to <br />meet the sidewalk, if any, or to a minimum height equal to <br />the curb height, with a maximum difference between the <br />downward cross slope of the traveled way or pavement and <br />the upward slope of the driveway to equal ten percent (10%). <br /> <br />Beyond the outer edge of sidewalk or equivalent, the maximum <br />allowable gradient shall be eight percent (8%) upward or <br />downward for commercial driveways and fifteen percent (1S%) <br />for other driveways. <br /> <br />Corner Clearance (C). The minimum dimensions for corner clearances <br />are listed on Table 6. The County Highway Engineer shall determine <br />if the presence of bus stops, separate turning lanes, skew or complex <br />intersections, unusually wide roadways, or heavy traffic generators <br />warrants greater corner clearances. <br /> <br />Driveway Angle. Driveway angle "Y" shall not be less than sixty (60) <br />degrees where two-way vehicular traffic is anticipated. Angles <br />between sixty (60) degrees and forty-five (45) degrees are acceptable <br />for one-way vehicular traffic where no pedestrian conflict exists. <br /> <br />I <br />! <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />?6 <br /> <br /> <br />
