Thank you again! Yes, I do have 3D analyst. I understood the point till creating contours. But, the rest of the calculations are to be done in a spreadsheet? Is there a specific example I can look at for reference?

Thanks for your reply! But the problem is I am looking at a mountainous terrain and not a flat terrain. So the surface area lost would be slightly higher than if the road were built on a flat surface? Any pointers to calculate this using ArcGIS?

I am trying to find out the area of land that is lost due to the expansion of an existing road in mountainous terrain. Suppose, the road width needs to be increased from 40 ft to 80 ft, how do I go about calculating the area of land lost to this road. I am sure the additional 40 ft expansion doesn't mean 400 sq ft if the length of the road were to be 10 ft in mountainous terrain. Any leads on how I can calculate this?
