The next step is to create the targets for the interior of the intersection core. The regular assembly is going to build the road and the turn lane but when it gets to the intersection we want it to drop everything except the lane edge. We will create an alignment that stretches across the intersection.

  1. Home > Create Design > Alignment > Alignment Creation Tools

  2. Name it: Int-25-4thAve-IntCore-Rt

  3. Alignment Style > RDWY Lane Edge

  4. Use the tangent tangent no curve tool to draw from the beginning of intersection to the end

  5. Close out the tool bar

  6. Repeat the above steps for the left side

Info: These alignments do not need to be data referenced. We will be using them only in the file. If needed they could be data referenced if they were needed elsewhere.
