● Crowns should be located at or near lane lines.
● For pavements with three or four lanes, no more than two should slope in the same
direction.
● Undivided pavement sections should be crowned in the middle when the number of
lanes is even, and at the edge of the center lane when the number is odd.
● Narrow raised median sections should be crowned in the middle, so that the majority
of the pavement will drain to the outside.
