Beautiful Roads: A Handbook of Road Architecture

Danish Road Directorate

This handbook contains a number of general and thematic descriptions of good road architecture and provides a checklist system in the planning, implementation, and maintenance stages. The ambition of this handbook is for road building to be based on a joint understanding of the interrelationship among aesthetic enjoyment, good architecture, good technical quality, and good workmanship, traffic safety, and good economy.
