All:
I'm looking for some guidance in the placement of man holes on a section of 4 lane highway. This is Main Street for the City of Weirton, WV, so it's not a limited access highway.
Specifically, my questions are:
- Where should the man holes go on the road surface? In the center of a lane? In the center of the road? In between 2 lanes of travel? In the sidewalk?
- How closely should they be spaced? What is the rationale for the man holes?
Hopefully some of you closet civil engineers will enlighten me.
Many thanks,
George
