Pipes/structures in cul de sac profile

Morning, all...

So, I have a standard bulb cul de sac for which I've created an alignment and corridor. The alignment follows the centerline of the cul de sac, looping back on itself and tying in at the beginning of the bulb. The centerline profiles fine, but my storm/water/sewer pipes appear to double back on themselves, due to their relational position in the alignment. Anyone find a way to avoid this, or am I doomed because of how the alignment is constructed? And no, straightening the alignment to run straight through the bulb is not an option.

Thanks,

Tom

Any chance you could provide a screen shot of your alignment? Not sure I understand how that's laid out.

Surely...I have a feeling it's unavoidable, having the looped pipes, but I'm still curious as to whether anyone has come up with a workaround...
