Abstract: In this paper, the sequel to “A Family of Methods for Preliminary Highway Alignment,” we apply results from the latter, in addition to some network design models which include locating road junctions (“Generalized Steiner Points”) to the design of complete highway networks connecting n given points on any given terrain. The objective is to satisfy given bilateral transportation demands at minimal total cost---including construction and users' costs.
