Pipe standards vary their minimum and maximum pipe cover values based on the size of the pipes. There needs to be an ability to set this per conduit size so that when running a design you can consider these different cover depths. As of now, you w...

A catchment's subareas is ONLY accessible by opening the subareas collection. This limits the ability to streamline various workflows. At minimum sub areas need to be accessible from the following: Flex Tables - The current flex tables will only...

We would like to be able to set up annotation groups to annotate the invert and/or crown elevations of a conduit along its length using set station intervals. Currently, there are only start/end invert/crown elevation text favorite fields.

We are now 10 years into OpenRoads. Why are we still faced with two property panels. One for MicroStation and one for Utility/drainage. The two property panels overlap in what is displayed. ELIMINATE the Utility Properties Panel so we can end the ...

Add annotation groups for Catchments and Gutters.

Many User's are experiencing an issue where portions of their drainage layout (nodes for example) are becoming red dashed lines in appearance. This change indicates a break/error in the design and absent specific reasons why this occurred, User's ...

Some DOTs require input of an exact values for catch basin grate open area for orifice flow and catch basin grate perimeter for weir flow. ORD would consider these as calculated values, not inputs. These are not ORD outputs and are hidden from the...

When exporting a drainage flex table in ESRI format, the default field names include names longer than 10 characters. This throws the error message: "The Esri Shapefile field name <Middle_Flow> for column <Flow (Middle)> cannot be long...

Current Limitations Currently, creating overhead conductors between two "Overhead Nodes" (e.g., utility poles) results in a straight-line conduit. In reality, these lines always exhibit a natural sag due to gravity and tension forces. To model sag...

It would be very helpful and much more efficient if there was an option to insert a vertical bend or curve into a drainage link/pipe from the profile run profile view. Basically, adding the exact same tool that is available in plan/horizontal call...
