Sažetak
Passages in the central reserves of motorways are intended for redirection of traffic during planned special maintenance of motorways and in accident situations, as well as for the requirements of emergency vehicles (ambulance, fire-brigade, police). The observed problems in deficient legal regulations of the design and length of the passages are reflected on the existing condition of the passages in the central reserve on the Croatian motorways. Our practice shows diverse solutions, especially regarding the lengths of the passages. Considering the issue of the passages in the motorway central reserves in a certain number of the European Union countries one can notice various design solutions contained in the national standards. Having in mind the purpose of the passages under the condition of safe flow of traffic, the required passages dimensions have been studied regarding their position on the motorway. The study resulted in two design type solutions. As result of the performed study and the observation of the national and foreign practice, recommendations are given for the design solution of the passage in the central reserve on the Croatian motorways.
