Abstract

Standard pavement and shoulder width for two lane undivided rural roads is suggested, based on safety and traffic service volume. Safety is considered by summarising the results of a literature survey. Service volumes are calculated for the study sections to indicate the relative efficiency of combinations of lane and shoulder width under traffic.
