Description

This bulletin is issued to inform practitioners of the department's revised guidelines on the centerline to centerline spacing for new rural divided highway cross section. Where land is considered to be of lower value (not suitable for cultivation or grazing) the use of a wider median (55m or more is desirable) has many economic advantages resulting from capital, maintenance and operational savings. Where the desirable spacing is not economical, a minimum centerline to centerline spacing of 40 m is acceptable.
