Assembly help for 4 lane divided section with median with variable width

I have a 4 lane divided section with curbs with a paved median.

The median has a crown in the middle.

The middle of the medium always is on the roadway baseline.

The entire section is constant, but the medium varies in width.

 

What is the best subassembly to use for the median?

What is the best procedure to use to vary the median width?

 

thanks...

thanks for the video...

the video is for a constant median width

how do you vary the width?

and how do you deal with median breaks?

Hi @millermccoy

 

LanefromtapperedMedian1 SA is the one you want as the video @Todd_Rogers shared summarized.  If you want a more in depth video showing how to leverage this SA watch this super helpful 9 part YouTube video series by Jeff Bartels.  It goes into more detail on how to deal with varying median widths and breaks, etc.  I hope it helps.
