ROAD GRADE AND ALIGNMENT STANDARDS Clause Samples

The 'Road Grade and Alignment Standards' clause sets the required specifications for the slope (grade) and layout (alignment) of roads constructed under the agreement. It typically details acceptable maximum and minimum grades, curvature, and other geometric requirements to ensure roads are safe and suitable for their intended use. By establishing these standards, the clause ensures that all road construction meets safety, accessibility, and regulatory requirements, thereby preventing disputes and reducing the risk of substandard or unsafe roadways.
ROAD GRADE AND ALIGNMENT STANDARDS. Purchaser shall follow these standards for road grade and alignment except as designed:  Grade and alignment must have smooth continuity, without abrupt changes in direction.  Maximum grades may not exceed 18 percent favorable and 12 percent adverse.  Minimum curve radius is 60 feet at centerline.  Maximum grade change for sag vertical curves is 5% in 100 feet.  Maximum grade change for crest vertical curves is 4% in 100 feet.
