Chapter 7 Roads: Geometric design and layout planning Corridors, in association with their intended functions, will ultimately define the horizontal alignment of the streets located in them. A need for high traffic speeds will suggest high values of horizontal radius, whereas reductions in radius could be applied to force speeds down to match
