Ability for Superelevation Lanes to use Crossfall between Linear Features to define superelevation

In many circumstances superelevation cannot be easily defined by superelevation points, i.e. tie-ins to existing crossfall, extension of adjacent carriageway crossfalls, eg. ramps, intersections, etc. In these circumstances users need to use linea...

Auto-annotate parametric constraints, template transitions, point controls, superelevation

On road construction plans we need to label/annotate change points. We need to label where changes (lane width, superelevation transitions, side slope transitions, component start and end points, etc. ) from the “default” condition happen. The sof...

Assign non-Active profile to bridge

Long alignments can oftentimes consist of multiple profiles that control along various segments of the alignment. Currently, only one "Active" profile can be assigned to an alignment. When creating multiple bridges along the same alignment, users ...

Better integration between ConceptStation and OpenRoads

Annotate Alignment by Mile Post

We would like the ability to add Mile Post annotations to alignments. One way to do this would be to add a "Begin Mile Post" property and the ability to configure the annotation group to display whole and fractional mile post annotations along the...

Add a right click option in the Feature Definition dialogue for "Set Active"

When navigating through all the feature definitions it would be handy to have an option to set the feature to the active definition being used. It's easier many times to navigate through the OpenRoads Standards list to find features than using the...

We need a SINGLE LIST of configuration variables that can be filtered by ALL products and generation

It would be nice if there was a single list of configuration variables so that we don't have to hunt in different product Help documents (microstation vs openroads) to find details of how they are used. Furthermore there seems to be a lot of confi...

WS wind speeds table for FDOT Sdg 2.4 (and combinations) are not updated as per 2025

There appears to be a discrepancy in wind load calculations—specifically, the gust factor of 0.85 remains different from AASHTO standards. However, the FDOT Structures Design Guidelines (SDG) 2025 now allow the use of AASHTO Article 3.8, which may...
