Safe stopping sight distance (SSD) has been recognized as a criterion for road design and should be taken into account.
It is concluded that the critical concept for safe horizontal curve radii in road tunnels (as in open roadways) is the stopping sight distance.
In addition, most research has paid but little attention to the safety effects of variables such as stopping sight distance and pavement surface characteristics.
Highway alignment design standards in terms of the minimum horizontal curve radius are specified to allow for adequate stopping sight distance at given design speeds.
A sight distance model that not only automatically calculates available sight distance (ASD) and stopping sight distance (SSD), but also evaluates sight distance deficiency of alternative alignments is proposed.
Using the developed analytical models, example design graphs are established for the length requirements of the transitioned vertical curve based on the upper range of stopping sight distance presented by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.
