True spiral, cubic spiral, cubic parabola, and lemniscate are the types of transition curves, not vertical curves.

Therefore, option E is correct.

Circular is the right answer.

Ideal vertical curve is CIRCULAR. But we take square parabola for summit and cubic parabola for valley.

Cubic parabola is ideal vertical curve.

Vinod said:   5 years ago
I think:

The ideal vertical curve is parabolic.
The Summit curve is a simple parabola.
The Valley curve is a cubic parabola.
