As part of the works a hill on the existing road will be flattened out to improve visibility There will be two landowners whose access will be directly affected by the works. On one side of the road a retaining wall will be required and this landowner was having difficulty understanding how the new access and retaining wall will impact on their property.
The design was already completed in Civil 3D so I was working from a completed design back to get a visualisation in AIM (whereas the software is primarily a conceptual design/visualisation tool and you would normally use it before finalizing the design).
Here are some of the before and after visuals...

The visuals aren't photo-realistic but they don't need to be either. (The inclusion of the sun isn't realistic either given that it is in Donegal). The landowner can clearly see the impact of the new road layout on their property. The effort involved to create the above was small enough to make it feasible for a landowner query - it took about a day. If you are proficient with Civil 3D then you should pick this up quite quickly....
