Abstract

The paper reviews some aspects of road design, notably constraints on the horizontal and vertical alignments such as minimum radii, stages in the process of design at which the search activities occur, and the cost of roads, several different optimization techniques are mentioned and compared with the computer method used for the design of road lay-outs to reduce costs.
