Alignment:
Select the alignment on which the Extra Station locations will be defined. The Extra Station locations will be used in the Corridor Model, the Corridor Earthworks and Mass Haul Reports as well as in the Corridor Cut Sheet Report etc.

Station:
Input the Station Values at which you want additional model and reporting locations for a corridor or sideslope model. Each station entered will be added to the list of Extra Stations. These additional stations supplement the locations already computed in the corridor model i.e. at PC, PT, PI, PVC, PVT, Intervals, Superelevation locations, Instruction Table locations etc.

As you enter station values, a yellow marker will be dropped at each station. If you select an extra station in the list of values, the yellow marker will be enlarged to indicate it’s location.

When you tap apply, the extra stations will be added to the alignment and at that point dependent corridor or sideslope models will be updated. The command will ready itself for another selection set and repeat process execution. If you do not want to make a second selection and repeat the process tap Close to finish the process.
