c) Discuss the factors affecting lighting scheme of roads. 4M
Ans.
1) Contrast: The contrast is one of the most important contributing factors for the
visual performance during night driving. To a great extent, the recognition of objects is
based on the discrimination of differences of brightness between an object and its
background.
2) Glare: The disturbing influence when viewing a difficult visual task under low 01M
brightness conditions is known as glare. Following two types of glare have a critical each
influence on the visual performance of a driver: Disability glare or physiological glare (any 4)
and Discomfort glare or psychological glare.
3) Lamps: The lamps commonly used for highway lighting are tungsten filament
lamps, sodium vapour lamps, mercury vapour lamps and fluorescent lamps.

4) Lateral placement of lighting poles: The lighting poles should not be installed
very close to the pavement edge because in that case, the capacity of the roadway is
decreased and the free movement of traffic is obstructed.

5) Lighting layouts: The highway lights can be arranged in different ways as opposite
arrangement, staggered arrangement, one side arrangements, central arrangement or in
combination.

6) Luminaire distribution of light: For making the maximum use of luminaire or


source of light, it is desirable to have proper distribution of light.

7) Mounting height and overhang: The mounting height plays a great role in deciding
the distribution of light, shadow and glare effect from the street lamps. The usual
mounting heights range from 6 m to 10 m. The higher value is preferred for important
urban roads.

8) Spacing of lighting units: The spacing between lamps on straight roads is about 3
to 5 times the mounting height. For sharp curves, the spacing between lamps is closer
for better visibility and comfort conditions.

d) Describe the points to be considered for the roadside development. 4M


Ans. Following are some of the points to be considered for roadside development
1. Consistent and smooth horizontal and vertical alignments. 01M
2.Wide right of way in urban areas to screen adjoining property by plantation each
3. Flat sides slopes in embankment and cut, rounded to blend to the original surface. (any 4)
4. Suitable planting of roadside trees and shrubs and proper maintenance.
5. Turfing on side slopes and shoulders of a rural road.
6. Developing a pleasant view and parking spaces.
7. Street lighting and Road arboriculture (planting trees on the road side) are
important aspects of roadside development.
8.In urban areas roadside planting is mainly for beauty or landscape. Planting of
shrubs is done on wide urban roads on the medians or separators besides providing
trees on roadsides. During night drive these shrubs helps to reduce the headlight glare.
