Computer Aided Geometric Design Of Access Roads For Housing Estates, Using Generated Traffic Data: The African University Of Science And Technology/ Bridge Estate, Abuja, Nigeria, As A Case S

ABSTRACT The proposed Access Roads which will connect the Airport Road to the main gate of the African University of Science and Technology, Abuja, Nigeria and the proposed Bridge Housing Estate when constructed will foster broader community goals by promoting business activities within and around the University environment. Topographic data were taken, traffic study and traffic volume forecast where carried out; minimum curve radii and curve lengths were calculated The traffic study for the Main Access Road gave the 851h percentile speed of 62. 07km/hr. The corresponding traffic volume forec…
