Haniff Road and highway design Since the beginning of the 21st century, as the automobile has offered ever higher levels of mobility in Malaysia especially Kuala Lumpur, vehicle ownership per head of population has increased. Road needs have been strongly influenced by this popularity and also by the mass movement of people to cities and thence to suburban fringes a trend that has led to increasing travel needs and road congestion and to low-density cities, which are difficult to service by public transport. Often the building of new roads to alleviate such problems has encouraged further urban sprawl and yet more road travel. Long-term solutions require the provision of alternatives to all automobile transport, controls over land use, and the proper pricing of road travel. To this end, road managers must be concerned not merely with lines on maps but also with the number, type, speed, and loading of individual vehicles, the safety, comfort, and convenience of the traveling public, and the health and welfare of by standers and adjoining property owners. Ideally, the development of a major road system is an orderly, continuous process. The process follows several steps, assessing road needs and transport options, planning a system to meet those needs, designing an economically, socially, and environmentally acceptable set of roads.
