The topics illustrate the rules for the design of road projects, the study of the system of constraints and the optimization of the design choices including the environmental point of view. Additional topics include the study of advanced geometry trajectories and safety audits. Practical exercise consists in drafting a road project.

Type of evaluation
The test of learning processes are based on: a) development of exercises during the lessons b) drafting of a road project c) oral test on theoretical issues and road project discussion.
