Specifies the corridor grade option for the corridors created in the intersection area. Primary Road Crown Maintained: When this option is selected, the primary road crown is maintained through the intersection. All Crowns Maintained: When this option is selected, the crowns of both roads included in the intersection are maintained through the intersection.
Specifies the intersection extents along the primary road as it enters and exits the intersection. If the curb returns are defined, then this parameter is not used, and instead the extents are calculated by the curb return extents on either side of intersection.
Specifies the intersection extents of the secondary road as it enters and exits the intersection. If the curb returns are defined, then this parameter is not used, and instead the extents are calculated by the curb return extents on either side of intersection.
Specifies whether to create curb return alignments.
Specifies whether to create curb return profiles.
Specifies whether to create intersection corridors.
Use these settings to specify the default styles assigned to intersection creation.
Specifies the offset distance from the centerline on the left side of the primary road.
Specifies the offset distance from the centerline on the right side of the primary road.
Specifies the offset distance from the centerline on the left side of the secondary road.
Specifies the offset distance from the centerline on the right side of the secondary road.
Specifies how the length of the offset alignment is determined. When To Intersection Extents is selected, offset alignments are extended to the length of the extent of the intersection object. When Alignment Start To End is selected, offset alignments are created the length of the parent alignment.
Use these settings to specify the default styles assigned to intersection creation.
Specifies the cross slope of the left side of the primary road.
Specifies the cross slope of the right side of the primary road.
Specifies the cross slope of the left side of the secondary road.
Specifies the cross slope of the right side of the secondary road.
Use these settings to specify the default styles assigned to intersection creation.
Specifies the type of curb return used for the intersection: Chamfer, Circular Fillet, or 3-Centered Arcs.
When Circular Fillet is selected as the curb return type, this option lets you specify the radius for the circular fillet on the curb return.
When 3-Centered Arcs is selected as the curb return type, this option lets you specify the radius for each of the three curves on the curb return.
When 3-Centered Arcs is selected as the curb return type, this option lets you specify the length for the first and third curves on the curb return.
When Chamfer is selected as the curb return type, this option lets you specify the length of the curb return’s chamfer fillet along the incoming or outgoing lane.
Use these settings to specify the default styles assigned to intersection creation.
Specifies whether to widen the incoming lane as it enters the intersection.
Specifies whether to widen the outgoing lane as it exits the intersection.
Specifies the offset distance applied to the widened regions, at both the entrance to the intersection, and as it exits the intersection.
Specifies the length of the widened portion of the curb return at both the entrance to the intersection, and as it exits the intersection.
Specifies the type of transition used for the widening: Linear, Curve-Line-Curve, Curve-Curve -Reverse Curve, or Curve - Reverse Curve.
When Linear is selected as the Transition Type, this option lets you specify the type of linear transition used for the widening: By Length or By Taper Ratio.
When By Length is selected as the Linear Transition Type, this option lets you specify the length of the transition for the widening.
When By Taper Ratio is selected as the Linear Transition Type, this option lets you specify the ratio of the tapering for the widening.
When a curve option is selected as the Transition Type, this option lets you specify the radius for the first and second curves used in the widening.
When Curve-Curve - Reverse Curve is selected as the Transition Type, this option lets you specify the radius for the first and second curves used in the widening.
Use these settings to specify the default styles assigned to intersection creation.
Specifies whether to apply grade rules.
Specifies the maximum grade that can be used in the profile for the secondary road.
Specifies the maximum grade change that can be used in the profile for the secondary road.
Specifies the method that is used to adjust the grade of the secondary road profile. When To Intersection Extents is selected, the grade of the secondary road profile is adjusted to within the extents of the intersection object. When Specify Distance is used, the grade of the secondary road profile is adjusted by the value that is entered in the Distance Value.
Specifies the distance that is used to adjust the incoming and outgoing grade along the secondary road profile when Specify Distance is selected for Distance Rule to Adjust the Grade.
Use these settings to specify the default styles assigned to intersection creation.
Specifies the method that is used to define the curb return profile.
Specifies whether to extend the curb return profile along the incoming lane of the intersection.
When Extend Profile Along Incoming Lane is set to Yes, this option lets you specify the length to extend the curb return profile along the incoming lane of the intersection.
Specifies whether to extend the curb return profile along the outgoing lane of the intersection.
When Extend Profile Along Incoming Lane is set to Yes, this option lets you specify the length to extend the curb return profile along the outgoing lane of the intersection.
Use these settings to specify the default styles assigned to intersection object components.
Specifies the default style for intersections. Click in the Value column, and click to select a style in the Intersection Style dialog box.
Specifies the default style for intersection object labels. Click in the Value column, and click to select a label style. Note that there is no placement option available for an intersection label. The label is always placed at the intersection point. If that point is already labeled, then a second label is placed on top of the existing label.
Specifies the default style for offset alignments. Click in the Value column, and click to select a style in the Offset Alignment Style dialog box.
Specifies the default style for curb return alignments. Click in the Value column, and click to select a style in the Curb Return Alignment Style dialog box.
Specifies the default style for offset profiles. Click in the Value column, and click to select a style in the Offset Profile Style dialog box.
Specifies the default style for curb return profiles. Click in the Value column, and click to select a style in the Curb Return Profile Style dialog box.
Specifies the default style for offset alignment label sets. Click in the Value column, and click to select a style in the Offset Alignment Label Set dialog box.
Specifies the default style for curb return alignment label sets. Click in the Value column, and click to select a style in the Curb Return Alignment Label Set dialog box.
Use these settings to specify the default name templates used for the following components associated with an intersection object:
