Question:

Is there an example workspace based on Caltrans standards that I can use as a starting point to develop my own?

Answer:

Yes, and example Caltrans workspace can be downloaded here:  Caltrans OpenRoads Designer Workspace (2022 R2) 

This is an example workspace for users to utilize in the development of their Caltrans workspace.  Developed in the OpenRoads 2022 R2 (V10.12).  Users can use this as a starting point to modify to match Caltrans standards.  Caltrans has not yet approved any OpenRoads Designer workspace, so it is up to each user to update, validate, and maintain their own standards.

Changes from previous (10.08) workspace:

1. Merged several of the DGNLibs in the Features folder to simplify maintenance
2. Setup element templates, feature symbologies and feature definitions for Survey Features to provide users a starting point for CalTrans survey alpha codes.  Modifications will likely be required to fully match CalTrans Standards.
