The design team has decided to go with the Intersection with the turn lane so freeze the layer Alt2. We're going to create a setup corridor to the AliProf drawing to know the elevation at the main road ETW and what elevation to tie the curb and gutter ends. The setup corridor will develop a surface that we can pull a profile from for those critical locations.

  1. Select all the intersection blocks and change the visibility to Design mode
  2. Home tab > Create Design > Assembly > Create Assembly
  3. Name it 25-Setup-ETW > OK > Place in drawing

Tip: Assemblies and corridors display better if you change the display scale to 1 IN:10FT or 1 IN:5FT

  1. WisDot Design tab > WisDOT & Civli Imperial palette > General Subassemblies tab > MultiUseWidthAndSlopeLinks

  2. Place on the assembly

  3. Select the assembly and Assembly properties to set the parameters

  1. Repeat for the left side
