The dissertation deals with application of simulated swept paths of vehicles to road designs. Using software which generates simulated swept paths makes new demands on the designer, but Czech regulations do not stipulate the appropriate method of applying swept paths. The theoretical part of the dissertation analyses the theory of how a vehicle moves when passing through a horizontal road curve and a method of calculating a necessary extent of widening the road. The practical part compares swept paths generated by various software programs and differences between them. In order to verify the shapes and dimensions of the swept paths generated, the swept path of a real vehicle was measured. This swept path was then compared with the one generated, and the differences between them were evaluated. One of the software programs was chosen as a reference program, and its output was applied to a road design pursuant to valid regulations. The results obtained within the dissertation were used to develop certified methodology titled: „Methodology of widening road lanes in horizontal curves and of application of vehicles’ swept paths “.
