Longitudinal slopes
Minimum gradient of alignment to maintain
adequate slope in longitudinal channels
Longitudinal channels
Ditches along side of road to collect surface
water after run-off
TRANSVERSE SLOPE

BASICS OF DRAINAGE SYSTEM
Transverse slopes
Removes water from pavement surface
Facilitated by cross-section elements (cross-
slope, shoulder slope)
Longitudinal slopes
Minimum gradient of alignment to maintain
adequate slope in longitudinal channels
