You will learn about traffic studies, trip generation, and how to analyze crashes to make roads safer. We also cover forecasting future traffic and planning for pedestrians and bikes.Section 2: Traffic Signals and Traffic Control Design Here, we study how to time traffic signals, including clearance, cycles, and pedestrian crossing times. You will learn how to design signals and decide when a new signal is needed. We also go over the rules for permanent road signs, road markings, and temporary traffic control.Section 3: Horizontal and Vertical Geometric Design This section helps you understand the physical layout of roads. We will review circular curves, horizontal sight distance, and how much a road needs to tilt. You will also learn about vertical alignment and the safe stopping distances you need on hills and dips.Section 4: Roadside and Cross-Section Design Plus Intersection Geometry We want to make sure the sides of our roads are safe. This part covers clear zones, slopes, and safety barriers. You will also study the layout of intersections, highway interchanges, and roundabouts. We make sure to include designs for walking paths and ADA rules.Section 5: Geotechnical and Pavement Plus Drainage Before you build a road, you must understand the dirt and water around it. We cover soil types, strength, and earthwork. You will learn how to design flexible and rigid road pavements. Finally, we review how water moves, including culverts, drains, and detention ponds.Section 6: Project Management In our final section, you will learn how to manage the money and time for an engineering job. We review how to estimate costs, schedule tasks, and track the value of the work done. You will also practice economic analysis to make sure the project makes financial sense.Who This Course Is ForEngineers preparing for the PE Civil Transportation exam in 2026.Professionals who want to check their road design and planning skills.Students looking for realistic mock exams to test their knowledge.People who need clear, simple explanations for tough engineering problems.Job seekers wanting to boost their resume with a professional license.Anyone looking for an easy-to-read study guide that skips the confusing jargon.RequirementsYou need a basic knowledge of civil engineering ideas.You should have a calculator ready for math problems.You need time to take self-paced practice tests.You must have a goal to pass your 2026 certification exam.Why Take This CourseTaking this course gives you the tools you need to succeed.
