    This document outlines design standards for Philippine national highways based on average daily traffic (ADT). It provides minimum and desirable standards for design speed, radius, grade, cross section, stopping and passing sight distances, and surface type depending on the terrain (flat, rolling, or mountainous) and ADT. Standards include requirements for traffic lane width, shoulder width, right of way width, and superelevation.
