Question:

How can I extract the boundary of my corridors to produce a construction limit or footprint of my road design?

Set the design stage of the corridors to one that creates the corridor top mesh.
Within the Default 3D model, create a selection set of the corridors you want to include as the construction limit.
Go to Tools > Mesh > Mesh Utilities > Extract Boundary

Data point to accept to extract boundary from mesh elements.
If you selected multiple corridors, you may need to trim the overlapping boundary lines. You can use the Trim Multiple MicroStation tool found from going to Tools > Manipulate > Modify > Trim Multiple.
