Development of a KYTC Highway Geometric Design Workshop

Highway geometric design is a Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) core competency. Because highway layouts directly impact traffic flow, speed management, accessibility, and user experience, careful and thoughtful geometric design is essential for building safe, efficient, and sustainable roads. Through formal training in highway geometric design, designers will gain the knowledge and skills needed to successfully address complex design challenges related to road function, topography, traffic volume, and environmental concerns.
