Crowned Roadway

A crowned roadway refers to a road surface that is intentionally shaped with a higher center and sloping sides. The center of the road is raised or crowned to allow for proper drainage of water towards the sides. This design helps prevent water from pooling on the road surface and promotes efficient runoff to the road shoulders and drainage systems. By creating a crowned roadway, it enhances safety by reducing the risk of hydroplaning and improves driving conditions, particularly during rainy or snowy weather.
