Definition provided by the client:
Longitud para el desvanecimiento del bombeo: Longitud para hacer la variación del peralte desde un bombeo a un valor determinado. Peralte es la pendiente transversal de la carretera, Bombeo es cuando el peralte va en sentidos contrários en cada sentido de circulación como en zonas rectas para que el agua salga hacia los lados semejante a un tejadillo).
Thanks!

the vanishing point of the upgrade tangent or crest
crest of the road..where it bulges ..could be..what a tricky text you have there
That means that the road data should fit to a map and plan scale of at least 1:1000. As a consequence highway engineers should be in position to determine:
(d) The functional category of the road.
(e) The design speed.(
f) The number and widths of all cross-section elements (lanes,medians, edge strips, shoulders).
(g) The design elements of the horizontal alignment (tangents,transition curves and circular arcs) and their physical parameters (radii, etc).(h) The design elements of the vertical alignment (upgrade and downgrade tangents, crest and sag vertical curves) and their physical parameters (slopes and radii).(
i) The superelevation rates and the superelevation runoff.
(j) The position of various road appurtenances and other traffic influencing devices or equipment
