Summary

Lectures and practices of object are centred on choice questions of highway and motorway designing. Attention is aimed namely on solution of flyover junctions on highway and motorway net and on capacity evaluation. Students make the acquaintance of registering method of highway and motorway net by the help of GIS applications, with using of orientation road signaling and traffic telematic. It is presented software which is used at road designing, that is currently on the institute.
