Question:

After creating superelevation sections, I notice that the on screen graphics display the superelevation lanes in color-coded fill?  What do the different fill colors mean?

Answer:

Color Shaded Fill Color fills superelevation lanes AFTER calculations are complete. The coloring is hard-coded based on the cross slope:

• slope < -10% =blue
• -10% <= slope <= -0.5% = Calculated color between green and blue
• -0.5% < slope < 0.5% = white
• 0.5% <= slope <= 10% = Calculated color between red and yellow
• slope > 10% = dark red

Based on the side of road, the colors flip. In addition to setting this option, the View Attribute for Fill must also be toggled on.
