What is the width of one road lane?

It depends on what type of road or parking area the lane is in. I remember working for an Architect who did a lot of bank work, which have drive-thru lanes. The width of the lane at the outdoor teller station was either 7' or 8' wide, depending upon the preference of the owner. It also depends on any turns, too. If you have a tight turn, you need a wide mouth at the turn. Refer to Federal Highway Standards.
