Here we have to choose most appropriate answer that is option A.

Reason is more camber more quick will drain water from surface.

Hence from option A is correct.

According to me,
Camber value( Light to heavy rainfall).
Rigid /High bitu- 1/60 to 1/50.
Thin bitu- 1/50 to 1/40.
WBM/Gravel road /Hilly Road- 1/40 to 1/33.25(maybe 1/36).
Earthen road- 1/33.25 to 1/25.

So here none is correct.
