Hi..

 

You could use dynamic feature lines or leave gap in between and use a dummy assembly with no subassemblies to bridge or transition the gap...

Hello,

I have been trying to fiqure this out for a long time now and would like when you have time can you so me some steps how to do this. Here is what I am trying to do.

Lets say my horizontal alignment starts at staion 100+00-200+00 bc with a curve of 400 which is the ec and then a line 200' at a bearing of s20 15 16 n

My existing travel way at station 100+00 is 11.67' lt and 10.97' rt. My transition at the end of the 200 line will be 12' tw lt and right with a 8' shld left and right. I will have a 3' chocker with a curb.

I have already the assembly created but the transition tieing into the existing is what I cant get.

When you leave a gap in between the corridor assemblies it will only connect on a staight line. This is not a viable solution where the centerline alignement is curved.

Not sure if you have moved on from this but targeting assemblies works well for this but also one thing I have found that is great is a custom transition assembly.  See below links:
