Section-1: Introduction
There is a growing universal demand for well prepared professionals in all disciplines. In
addition, increased pressure has consequently been placed in educational institution to prepare
the required number of qualified professional to fulfill societys need. It is imperative that there
is a large need in the industry for engineers with training and experience, and the academic
should move successfully to fill the need. This is especially true for in the situation of Ethiopia
where there is a lack of well trained and experienced urban engineers.
Therefore, the integration of academic program and exposing students to more practical project
results in well-seasoned and, well-educated professionals.
Thus, this high way design project is intended to equip the students with practical design
reinforcing what they have attained theoretically in the class.
It is already known that, for rapid economic, industrial and cultural growth of any country, a
good system of transportation is very essential. One of the transportation systems that are
economical for developing countries like Ethiopia is road. A well designed road network plays
an important role in transporting people and other industrial products to any direction with in
short time. Roads, to satisfy their intended purpose, must be constructed to be safe, easy,
economical, environmentally friend and must full fill the needs of inhabitants. Being safe, the
number of accidents that can occur will be minimized. Easiness decreases operation cost,
pollution and even time cost. Economical roads assure their feasibility according to their plans
and initiate further construction of roads. Schemes that do not satisfy the needs of localities may
not get the maximum utilization of the surplus man power that is really to exist in the rural
community and also its economical value may also decrease. Therefore, from this project it is
expected to understand and to get acquainted with the above facts by going through on the
following design aspects.
1.1
General Background
1
2010
This high way design project is taken from the Hargele - Afder Bare - Yet road project, which
is located in the Eastern part of the country in Somali National Regional State, Afder
Administrative Zone, Afder and Bare Woredas. The project is intended to facilitate the existing
and for the expected traffic load in the future, because the town is developing.
From this road we have given a stretch of 3 km emanating from station 12+500 to 15+500 for
this project to do geometric and pavement design in general.
1.2
Objectives
This final year design project on high-way has the following major objectives: To expose the prospective graduates to a detail and organized design on road projects;
To implement the knowledge that the prospective graduates have learned theoretically in
classes;
To ensure a good carrier development;
1.3
The Hargele - Afder Bare - Yet road project, is located in the Eastern part of the country in
Somali National Regional State, Afder Administrative Zone, Afder and Bare Woredas. The
project starts at Hargele (513N and 42 11E) and pass through Hargele, Afder, Bare, town and
ends at Yet. The project length is estimated to be 142.4km. The Location map together with the
topographic map of the project area is shown below.

Climate:
One of the environmental factors that affect performance of pavements structures is climate.
Hence, climate data of the project area mainly rainfall intensity, in terms of mean monthly and
mean annual and, temperature are required. According to the map shown on National Atlas of
Ethiopian Atlas, the project area is located in the region of the lowest annual rainfall. The mean
annual rainfall in this region is 300mm per year. The rainfall of the project area is characterized
by the following rainfall distribution:
April, May and October
Topography:
The terrain of the project area through which the road alignment traverses is rolling in substantial
section of the project which is intercepted by mountainous terrain in some sections.
Potential of the area:
In the project area limited crop production, livestock and livestock products are available in the
area of influence of the road project even though the area is under attention to reverse food
deficit. There is an initiative to change the area that the potential resources of oil mining and salt
production may attract private investors and governmental agencies.

Where,
Lr=minimum super elevation run-off (m)
G=maximum relative gradient (percent)
n1=number of lanes rotated
Bw=adjustment factor for number of lane rotated
w=width of one traffic lane (in our case, w/2)
ed=design super elevation rate, percent

It has been found that the drivers on curves have difficulty in steering their
vehicles to outer edge of road as they are able to on the straight because the rear
wheels do not follow precisely the same path as the front wheels when the
vehicles negotiates a horizontal curve or makes a turn.
On curves the vehicles occupy a greater width because the rear wheels track
inside the front wheels.

For all curves having a radius between 120 to 250m ERA recommends a minimum of
widening width equal to 0.6m. But we recommend the calculated value 0.73m. So, all the
curves will have the corresponding value unless they are no less than the recommended
value by ERA. Therefore, this widening will be introduced at the inner edge of the
curves. Because all the curves are un spiraled curves.

With site distance for the design speed as a control, the designer should check the actual
conditions on each curve and make the appropriate adjustment to provide adequate
distance.

intervals and for substantial portions of their length.

When the computed curve length for the above requirements is less than the minimum
curve length recommended by ERA2001, this recommended value is taken as curve
length.

The 100 in the above equations are to convert A from % into decimals.
Where Lvc min = Minimum length of vertical curve compute
Sd = Min. Stopping Sight Distance = 85 m for mountainous terrain.
Psd = Min. Passing Sight Distance

Sight distances should be checked during design, and adjustments made to meet the
minimum requirements. The following values should be used for the determination of
sight lines. Shown in the figures below:

A cross sectional elements in the high way design pertains to those features which deals
with its width. They will normally consist of the carriage way, shoulders, right of way,
roadway width, pavement width, the median, side slopes, drainage features and earth
work profiles.
Carriage way:
The part of the road constructed for use by moving traffic as traffic lanes. For our project
for DS4 and main access road ERA recommends 6.7m.
Lane width
Feature of a high way having great influence on safety and comfort in the width of the
carriage way, due to this we use a lane width of 3.35 m which is recommended for DS4
road are shown in table 2.6 ERA 2001 for all roads design standards.
83
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
Shoulders
Shoulder is:
Is the portion of the road between the outer edges and the edges of the carriageway are called shoulders.
Where the carriageway is paved, the shoulder should also be sealed with a single
bituminous surface treatment. This has several advantages. It would prevent edge
raveling and maintenance problems associated with parking on a gravel shoulder.
Sealing of the shoulder is recommended under the following conditions:
Where the total resulting gradient exceeds 25 per cent, it is recommended for
paved shoulder as the width is only 1m; this will reduce the frequent
maintenance needs in mountainous and escarpment terrains.
Where the shoulder material is readily erodible or where the availability of
material for shoulder maintenance is restricted.
Wherever there is significant pedestrian traffic in town and village areas.
Based on the above idea, ERA recommends a shoulder width based on design standard
and terrain classification. So, for this project since most of the route has a terrain of
rolling we took 1.5m for shoulder width as recommended by ERA manual. So, we took
1.5m shoulder throughout the route simplicity of the construction.
Road way:
84
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
It consists of the carriage way and shoulders and parking lanes. I.e., for this project road
way width will be 6.7+1.5+1.5=9.7m
Right-of-way
It is the width of the land secured and preserved to the public for road purposes. The
right-of-way should be adequate to accommodate all the elements that make-up the cross
section of the high way and may reasonably provide future development.
For this project having design standard of DS4, ERA recommends a right of way width to
be 50m for all terrain type.
Normal cross fall
Normal cross fall should be sufficient to provide adequate surface drainage whilst not
being so great as to make steering difficult, but it should facilitate drainage of the
pavement. It is depend up on the smooth of the surface and the intensity of the rain fall.
Therefore, we took 2.5% for normal cross fall for design standard of DS4 as
recommended by ERA.
Shoulder cross fall
It should be designed steeper than the pavement to facilitate quick drainage. Therefore we
took 4% for shoulder cross slope as recommended by ERA.
Side slope and back slope
Side slopes and back slopes should be designed to insure the stability of the road way and
to provide a reasonable opportunity for recovery of an out-of-control vehicle.
The selection of a side slope and back slope is depending on safety consideration, height
of cut or fill and economic consideration. ERA 2001 table 6.1 indicates the side slope
recommended for use in the design according to the height of cut and fill and the
material.

The following are concepts that are important in the hydraulics of culvert design:
Critical depth- the depth at which the specific energy of a given flow rate is at a
minimum. For a given discharge and cross-section geometry, there is only one critical
depth.
Crown- the inside top of the culvert.
Outlet- has tail water equal to or lower than critical depth. For culverts with free outlets, a
lowering of the tail water has no effect on the discharge or the backwater profile upstream
of the tail water.
Improved Inlet- has an entrance geometry that decreases the flow constriction at the inlet
and thus increases the capacity of culverts. These inlets are referred to as either side- or
slope-tapered (walls or bottom tapered).

Design criteria
Listed below by categories are the design criteria that should be considered for all culvert
designs.
Site criteria
Structure Type Selection
The type of drainage structure specified for a particular location is often determined
based on economic considerations. The following can serve as a guide in the selection of
the type of structure, proceeding from the most expensive to the least expensive. Culverts
are used where bridges are not hydraulically required, where debris is tolerable, and
where they are more economical than a bridge. Culverts can be concrete box culverts,
reinforced concrete pipe culverts, or corrugated metal culverts.
Length and Slope
The culvert length and slope should be chosen to approximate existing topography, and to
the degree practicable:
101
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
the culvert invert shall normally be aligned with the channel bottom and
the skew angle of the stream, and
Design Features
Culvert Sizes and Shapethe culvert size and shape selected is to be based on
engineering and economic criteria related to site conditions. In evaluating the suitability
of alternate materials, the selection process shall be based on a comparison of the total
cost of alternate materials over the design life of the structure that is dependent upon the
following:
cost
availability
structural strength,
traffic delays

Design Equations
Equations and Definitions
Losses
HL = HE + Hf+ Hv + Hb + Hj + Hg
Where:
HL = total energy loss, m
HE = entrance loss, m
103
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
Hf = friction losses, m
Hv = exit loss (velocity head), m
Hb = bend losses, m
Hj = losses at junctions, m
Hg = losses at grates, m
Velocity
V = Q/A Where:
V = average barrel velocity, m/s
Q = flow rate, m3/s
A = cross sectional area of flow with the barrel full, m2
Velocity Head
Hv = V2/2g where g = acceleration due to gravity, 9.8 m/s2
Entrance loss
He = Ke (V2/2g) where Ke = entrance loss coefficient,
Friction Loss
Hf = [(19.63n2L)/R1.33] [V2/2g)
Where:
n = Mannings roughness coefficient
L = length of the culvert barrel, m
R = hydraulic radius of the full culvert barrel = A/P, m
P = wetted perimeter of the barrel, m
104
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
Exit Loss
Ho = 1.0 [(V2/2g) - (Vd2/2g)]
Where: Vd = channel velocity downstream of the culvert, m/s (usually
neglected)
& Ho = Hv = V2/2g
Barrel Losses
H = He + Ho+Hf
H = [1 + Ke + (19.63n2L/R1.33)] [V2/2g]
Energy Grade Linethe energy grade line represents the total energy at any point along
the culvert barrel. Equating the total energy upstream and downstream of the culvert
barrel in the following relationship results:
HWo + ( Vu2/2g) = TW + (Vd2/2g) + HL
Where:
HWo = headwater depth above the outlet invert, m
Vu = approach velocity, m/s
TW = tailwater depth above the outlet invert, m
Vd = downstream velocity, m/s
HL = sum of all losses
Hydraulic Grade Linethe hydraulic grade line is the depth to which water would rise in
vertical tubes connected to the sides of the culvert barrel. In full flow, the energy grade
line and the hydraulic grade line are parallel lines separated by the velocity head except at
the inlet and the outlet.
Nomographs (full flow)The nomographs were developed assuming that the culvert
barrel is flowing full and:

In Inlet Control
If water surface profile (drawdown) calculations are necessary, begin at dc at the entrance
and proceed downstream to the exit. Determine at the exit the depth and flow area. Use
normal depth and velocity. This approximation may be used since the water surface
profile converges towards normal depth if the culvert is of adequate length. The outlet
velocity may be slightly higher than the actual velocity at the outlet.
In Outlet Control
The cross sectional area of the flow is defined by the geometry of the outlet and
either critical depth, tailwater depth, or the height of the conduit:
Critical depth is used when the tailwater level is less than critical depth.
Tailwater depth is used when tailwater is greater than critical depth, but below the
top of the barrel.
The total barrel area is used when the tailwater level exceeds the top of the barrel
Roadway Overtopping
Roadway overtopping will begin when the headwater rises to the elevation of the
roadway. The overtopping will usually occur at the low point of a sag vertical curve on
the roadway. The flow will be similar to flow over a broad crested weir.

- the approximate method of using the greater tailwater or (dc+ D)/2
may not be
applicable
- backwater calculations should be used to check the result and
- if the headwater depth falls below 0.75D, the approximate
- method shall not be used

Overtopping flood selected is generally consistent with the class of highway and the
risk at the site
Culvert location in both plan and profile shall be investigated to avoid sediment
build-up in culvert barrels.
Material selection shall include consideration of materials availability, and the service
life including abrasion and corrosion potentials.
Design Criteria
Listed below by categories are the design criteria that should be considered for all culvert
designs. The type of drainage structure specified for a particular location is often
determined based on economic considerations; Culverts can be concrete box culverts,
reinforced concrete pipe culverts, or corrugated metal culverts; Concrete box culverts are
constructed with a square or rectangular opening, and with wing walls at both ends.
Design Computation
In this project we propose four culverts and one bridge based on the topography and the
flow direction.

L=L+1.15hf
W=w+1.15hf (ERA section 3.8.6)
There fore, L=0.29+1.15*4.6 =5.58m
W=0.50+1.15*4.6 = 5.79m
But L is greater than the span of the culvert. There fore the intensity of the live loading
needs to be reduced proportionally.
Reduced load= (72.5*3.6)/5.58 =46.77KN
Load with impact factor=1.25*46.77 =58.47KN
Intensity of live load on the slab:
Intensity=load/area
=load/ (culvert span*w)
=58.47/ (3.6*5.79)=2.805KN/m2 =2805N/m2
3/ Load and reaction calculation
Dead load of the top slab:=0.3*1*25000=7500N/m2=75KN/m2
Total load on the culvert=Dead load +Live load
=82.8KN/m2+2.805kN/m2=85.605KN/m2=85605N/2
There fore,
Total design load on the top slab=85605N/2+7,500N/m2
=93,105N/m2

embankment.
Free Haul - the maximum distance through which excavated material may be transported
without the added cost above the unit bid price.
Overhaul - excavated material transported to a distance beyond the free haul distance.
Economic Limit of Haul - distance through which it is more economical to haul
excavated material than to waste and borrow.
Clearing and garbing (m2) - the removal of top soil, trees, bushes and e.t.c
Excavation (m3) - the process of loosing and removal of soil and rocks. It can be done
for three reasons.
In order to maintain the grades for roads and drainage
For structure foundation
For borrow excavation
Embankment /compaction (m3k.hr) - densification of fill section of the road.
The steps involved in the computation of earthwork quantities and the development of the
optimal mass haul diagram are:
Purpose of the preparation of earth work quantities and mass haul diagram
Computation of earthwork
140
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
There are several ways of calculating earthwork but the most common is the average end
area method. This method consists of averaging the cut and fill quantities of adjacent
stations and multiplying by the distance between stations to produce cubic meters of
excavation and embankment between the two stations.
End Area Calculations
In this project we took 25 cross section that covers total distance of 500 m (from station
12 + 500 to 13+000 m)
Calculation procedure followed
Area at different cross section along the road with an interval of 20m station
is taken.
Read the elevations of existing profile along the right of way (50 m) from the
contour to plot the points.
Design proposed carriage way by providing a cross fall of 2.5% from the
center to both direction. Then the amount of cut and fill are determined at
each 20m stations (to calculate the end area areas we use AutoCAD software
program)
Preparation of mass haul diagram.
Volume calculation
The volume of earth work from the successive cross sections can be computed by
different formulas like average end area method, (trapezoidal method) or primordial
formula.

negative. At the beginning of the curve the ordinate is zero, and ordinates are calculated
continuously from the initial station to the end of the project.
Mass haul diagram is a continuous curve showing the accumulated algebraic sum of the
cut (+ve) and fill (-ve) volume from some initial station for any succeeding section. The
horizontal axis represents distance and is usually expressed in meters or stations. The
vertical axis represents the cumulative quantity of earth work in cubic meter (m3).
The mass haul diagram allows determining direction of haul and the quantity of earth
taken from or hauled to any location. It shows balance point the station between which is
the volume of excavation. In this project horizontal axis represents stations from 12+500
to 13+000 and the vertical axis represents the cumulative volume.
Use of mass haul diagram
The mass haul diagram can be used to determine:
For our project the mass haul diagram is drawn according to the following data. We use
swelling factor of 0 % and factor shrinkage 85 % because we assume the soil is ordinary
common soil so we consider only swelling.
Calculation of mass ordinates is performed and the results are shown below on the table.

Section-5:
Pavement design
2010
Have sufficient total thickness and internal strength to carry expected traffic
loads;
Have adequate properties to prevent or minimize the penetration or internal
accumulation of moisture, and
Have a surface that is reasonably smooth and skid resistant at the same time, as
well as reasonably resistant to wear, distortion and deterioration by weather.
The sub grade ultimately carries all traffic loads.
The basic idea in building a pavement for all weather use by vehicles is:
Construct a pavement that will have sufficient total thickness and internal strength
to carry expected traffic loads, and distribute them over the sub grade soil without
overstressing.
Design inputs
In this pavement design, the design inputs are summarized into two main parameters,
traffic load in terms of cumulative ESA and Subgrade strength interim of CBR. The
overall required strength is read from charts or graphs which preset pavement catalogues
in which each pavement composition is classified based on ranges of traffic loading (T 1T8) and Subgrade strength (S1-S6) maximum CBR value. Therefore we provide flexible
pavement for our road project.
Flexible pavements
Flexible pavements are intended to limit the stress created at the sub grade level by the
traffic traveling on the pavement surface, so that the sub grade is not subject to significant
deformations. In effect, the concentrated loads of the vehicle wheels are spread over a
sufficiently larger area at sub grade level.
149
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
A flexible pavement is one, which has low (bending) flexural strength, and the load is
largely transmitted to the sub grade soil through the lateral distribution of stresses with
increasing depth.
The pavement thickness is designed such that the stresses on the sub grade soil are kept
with in its bearing capacity and the sub grade is prevented from excessive deformation.
The strength and smoothness of flexible pavement structure depends to a large extent on
the deformation of the sub grade soil.
A flexible pavement must satisfy a number of structural criteria or considerations;
The sub grade should be able to sustain traffic loading without excessive
deformation; this is controlled by the vertical compressive stress or strain at this
level.
Bituminous materials and cement-bound materials used in road base design
should not crack under the influence of traffic; this is controlled by the horizontal
tensile stress or strain at the bottom of the road base.
The road base is often considered the main structural layer of the pavement,
required to distribute the applied traffic loading so that the underlying materials
are not over stressed. It must be able to sustain the stress and strain generated
within it with out excessive or rapid deterioration of any kind.
In pavements containing a considerable thickness of bituminous materials, the
internal deformation of these materials must be limited; their deformation is a
function of their creep characteristics.
The load spreading ability of granular sub base and capping layers must be
adequate to provide a satisfactory construction platform.
Elements of the conventional flexible pavement
Tack coat
150
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
Is a very light application of asphalt usually asphalt emulsion diluted with water
used to ensure the bond between the surface being paved (surface course) and the
overlying course.
Essential requirements of tack coat
It must be very thin.
It must uniformly cover the entire surface to be paved.
It must be allowed to break or cure before the HMA is laid.
Prime coat
Is an application of low viscosity cut-back asphalt to an absorbent surface, such as
un treated granular base on which an asphalt layer will be placed.
Its purpose is to bind granular base to the asphalt layer.
The prime coat penetrates the underlying layer, plugs the voids, and forms water
tight surface.
Surface course
The surface course is the top course of an asphalt pavement, sometimes called the
wearing course
It is usually constructed by dense graded hot-mix asphalt
It must be:
Tough to resist distortion under traffic and provide a smooth and skid-resistant
riding surface.
Waterproof to protect the entire pavement and sub grade from the weakening
effect of water.
Binder course
Sometimes called the asphalt base course is the asphalt layer below the surface
course.
It is placed for two reasons:
First, the HMA is too thick to be compacted one layer, so it must be placed in two
layer.
151
2010
Second the binder course generally consists of larger aggregates and less asphalt
and does not require a high quality as the surface so replacing a part of the

Physical obstructions in or near our road way project should be removed in order to
provide the appropriate clear zone. Where removal is impossible, such objects should be
adequately marked by painting or by use of other highly visible material.
Where the object is in the direct line of traffic, the obstruction and marking there on
preferably should be illuminated at night by flood lighting; where there is not practical,
the object markings should be effectively reflectorized.
Post mounted delineators are another type of marking devises used to guide traffic,
particularly at night. Reflector units are installed at certain height & spacing to delineate
the road way where alignment changes may be confusing & not clearly defined.
The importance of traffic control devices
Give timely warning of hazardous situation when they are not self evident
It should be provided only after traffic engineering studies & sound judgments.
They should be legible & understood to those who using it (visibility, lettering,
symbols, locations, simplicity, uniformity & standard size).
Location, height & maintenance of traffic signs
2010
The signs should be located on the risk side of the road where the drivers will be looking
at them. On hill roads, they should be fixed on the valley side of the road & mounted on
the posts. According to AASHTO practice the signs in rural areas shall be mounted at a
height of at least 1.5m measured from the bottom to the pavement.
The sign posts should be maintained in proper position & legible at all time. Damaged
signs should be replaced immediately. Periodic painting of signs should be a routine part
of maintenance.
Road markings provisions
These markings are used as a means of controlling & guiding traffic of roads & safety.
These are:
Carriage way marking-which includes center line strip, traffic line strip, no over
taking zone, stop lines , pedestrian &cyclist crossings , route directions etc.
Broken lines are restrictive in character & vehicle can cross it safely.
When combination of solid & broken lines are used, and the traffic moves to the
right(left), a vehicle should not cross the continuous line adjacent to the
right(left) of broken lines on the lane which the vehicle moving.
Pavement marking colors shall be white (optional crossing) & yellow (not
crossing).
On rural areas the center line marking of the pavement segment & gaps shall be doubled
in length than an urban location, due to less traffic congestions. In addition the length of
gaps shall be shorter near approaches, intersections & on curves than on straight reaches.
The gap shall be half the value on straight sections.

Pavement edge lines or strips
These shall be used to indicate the edges of carriageway on which no Krebs are provided.
They serve as a visual guidance for the drivers, indicating to them the limits up to which
the driver can safely venture. They especially are useful during adverse weather & poor
visibility. Where the paved shoulder is of a lesser structural strength than the main
pavement, the edge lines are used to promote travel on the main pavement itself.
Edge lines shall be in the form of single continuous lines placed about 15cm from the
edge & the width of the lines shall be 15-20cm. Based on the above guide lines &
principles as per AASHTO & ERA manuals we recommended that:

Air quality / emissions and dust problems from all types of equipment and traffic
Impact on natural and planted vegetation: removal or trimming of only those plants
and trees directly affected by the implementation of the Project will be permitted.
Material disposal
Therefore the above factors will considered during construction of this project.
Erosion
When natural conditions are modified by the construction of a road, it marks the start of a
race between the appearance of erosion and the growth of vegetation. Disturbance during
construction can upset the often delicate balance between stabilizing factors, such as
166
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
vegetation, and others which seek to destabilize, such as running water. In some cases
erosion might result in cumulative impacts far beyond the road itself, affecting slopes,
streams, rivers, and dams at some distance from the initial impact.
Side-tipping of spoil materials
Spoil material from road cuttings can kill vegetation and add to erosion and slope
stability problems. Large amounts of spoil can be generated during construction in
mountainous terrain. Sometimes it is difficult to design for balances between cut and fill
volumes of earth at each location, and haulage to disposal sites may be expensive. This
creates a need for environmental management of tipped material.
During construction we shall not interrupt or interfere with the flow of irrigation waters
without making prior arrangements with and obtaining the agreement of the irrigation
authorities. The contractor shall allow in his program for the construction of those works
which might interface with the flow of irrigation waters to be carried out at such times as
will cause the least disturbance to irrigation operations.
The contractor shall comply with the following: Meet the requirements of regulations.
Consult, with the engineer before locating and constructing project offices and sheds and
installing construction plant. Prevent pollution of any kind to adjacent property resulting
from the construction operation. Sites containing cement, line and similar items shall be
suitably protected from rain and flood. Natural streams or channels adjacent to the works
of this contract shall not be disturbed without the approval of the engineer.
Management of Waste Materials
Management of waste materials: all excavated material to be disposed off-site in
locations approved by the local regulatory agency. No material is to be disposed down
slope without specific approval of the site engineer, and will be approved only if existing
drainage, agricultural land, housing, and slope stability is not affected. All waste oils to
be disposed of in accordance with existing environmental regulations.
Remedial Measures
167
ECSC, IUDS, Urban Engineering Department (UE)
2010
Prevention
When planning new roads or changes in width or alignment, sensitive natural
environments should be identified early in the planning process so that alternate routes
and designs may be considered. Wherever possible, road developments should be located
more than one kilometer away from sensitive areas to avoid severe impacts on flora and
fauna. Water crossings should be minimized, and buffer zones of undisturbed vegetation
should be left between roads and after courses. Groundwater recharge areas should be
avoided, and major roads should not be constructed through national parks or other
protected areas. Advantage should be taken of opportunities to twin new road corridors
with previously established transport rights-of-way, such as railway lines.
Animal crossings
As we know Somale region has a lot of camel and goat and other wild animal .Animal
crossings can be used to assist the migration of these animals. At important crossing
points, animal tunnels or bridges have sometimes been used to reduce collision rates,
especially for protected or endangered species. Tunnels are sometimes combined with
culverts or other hydraulic structures. These measures are expensive and used only at a
few locations where they are both justified (by the importance of the animal population
and the crossing route) and affordable (relative to the cost of the project and the funds
available.
