Once again Doug delivers a useful Powerpoint presentation that demystifies the Autodesk Vehicle Tracking and the Civil 3D Roundabout Feature backed by a solid and instructive demo in Civil 3D.
The presentation also covers significant Corridor edits:
How to construct a Cul-de-sac by adding a Corridor Baseline with Alignment (horizontal), Profile (vertical), and Assembly (cross section) targets.
How to build a basic Knuckle by splitting a Corridor Region and editing the width target of a roadway Assembly's Lane subassembly.

A couple of basic methods to fix Non-Tangent Curves in Civil 3D Alignments.
These non-tangent errors tend to happen more often when we employ Civil 3D's quick and dirty Create from Objects tools instead of the Alignment construction tools.

Yes, we can just fillet the two existing tangents with a zero radius curve to create the PI locations.
It also helps to learn how to effectively employ the Civil 3D Edit Alignment interface tools to create, edit, and manage the Alignment math.

Doug delivers a rich and useful Powerpoint presentation that demystifies Civil 3D Intersections backed by a solid and instructive demo in Civil 3D.
The most important fact to know about the Civil 3D Intersection Wizard is we can (and probably should) stop between the Horizontal, Vertical, and Cross Section control steps (or pages) of the wizard.
