Skewed key stations

I had a situation where I wanted to model Interstate NB and SB as separate and cut them off of the median cl. I was unable to get the tie slopes to tie to existing ground when cutting cross sections. Adding "key stations" at a skew would resolve t...

Place 1 Cross Section per Sheet (or other predefined number of cross sections)

We want to place only one cross section per sheet so that once a pdf is created, the user can flip through the pdf pages quickly and each cross section appears in the same spot. We can sort of trick this by changing the spacing, but it would be mu...

More types of bridges needed

The software is capable of quickly performing conceptual design, but currently supports very few bridge types, which cannot meet the needs for scheme presentation. Could you please add cable-stayed bridges, and suspension bridges? Also, provide se...

DU: Only modelling workflow

When starting a DU, OpenRoads creates a whole DU project inside the file and brings a lot of hidroly/hidraulic properties with it. That's fine if the goal is to run an analysis. But what if I just want to model a whole network and never run it? Di...

Need flood tools to be able to 'see' visible edges

Text from similar idea I MSR-I-1419 posted in MicroStation: When viewing a section through an assembly, flood tools such as fill, hatching, create region, measure area, etc. will not detect visible edges as part of the flood. Would like to at leas...

Create a tool that constructs transitions between different types of rail sections

Sometimes in track design, one must use different types of rails, say 60kg and 50kg rails. One could weld them and grind them together but this is a crude method. In Sweden they use what is called a transition rail, which in principle contain a sm...

Designing Geometry using multiple spiral type

Currently we can set up one spiral type for one DGN. If the geometry needs to be designed using different spiral type, we need the flexibility to allow the application of multiple spiral type in one DGN

Measure rail interval similar to Pro Rail extension

In Bentley Rail Track, there was an extension called Pro Rail that allows users to measure the interval between rail dynamically. Right now, we are able to report that using Station-Offset report but we are not able to track it which makes it chal...

Develop and Annotate Partial Geometry

In my experience, it's common to tie a proposed vertical alignment into an existing vertical curve. This can be easily done with the geometry tools. However, the annotation is only drawn to where the proposed geometry terminates. While technically...
