Superelevation Transition Question
Superelevation Transition Question
(OP)
Can anyone help me determine how to calculate the transition length from one superelevation to another superelevation? For examaple, going from a 4% super to a 5% super, what length would you transition over, for any generic speed?

Be careful with compound curves like this. If it isn't obvious that the radius is changing, you may have to add some cues, like shorter chevron spacing or something.
