To Add Section View Bands

Place data bands along the top or bottom of a section view grid to annotate the various section lines with elevation data, vertical or horizontal geometry points, superelevation, or pipe network data. You can also group a set of commonly used data bands into a band set that can be applied to a section view as a single selection.

Note: To label corridor lane widths, create a corridor, build a corridor surface using ETW (edge-of-traveled-way) feature lines, and label that surface with an appropriate section segment band. For more information, see About Creating and Editing Section Views and Understanding Corridor Modeling.
