Σύνοψη

The object of geometric design is to provide a basic level of safety and comfort for the road user and to ensure that design is both economic and uniform. Also it gives guidance on geometric design and the setting of geometric design standards for single carriageway rural (inter-urban) roads in developing countries.
It has been recognized that the behaviour and needs of road users in developing countries are often very different and as a result different standards may be appropriate. There is a need for developing countries to study the idea of the standards used in industrialized countries with a view to carrying out research under their own conditions in order to develop their own standards.
