Road way Condition Survey:
Roadway condition is an important parameter in selecting things for improving vehicular
movement in a road or highway. Sometimes roadside use pattern in our country affects the
traffic stream and the smoothness of their passing in the road

Side road: A minor or subsidiary road, especially one joining or diverging
from a main road. It distributes trips between the main road
and local area.
![Page 17: Roadway condition survey & Traffic Volume Study](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55c40c80bb61eb86448b4686/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Effects of side road on roadway condition:
Positive effects:1.Connecting residential areas with main road.
2.Making easy and movable access for the traffic of their residents and visitors.

Negative effects:
1.Increased traffic at the intersection of side road and main road.
2.Irregular and unplanned design, maintenance causing congestion and accidents

SURFACE DISTRESS
Surface distress is "Any indication of poor or unfavorable pavement performance or signs of impending failure; any unsatisfactory performance of a pavement short of failure"
Classification of Distress1. Fracture ( in the form of cracking)
2. Distortion(i.e. rutting, corrugation and shoving)
3. Disintegration(i.e. form of stripping, raveling or spalling)
![Page 22: Roadway condition survey & Traffic Volume Study](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55c40c80bb61eb86448b4686/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Importance of drainage :
1.To prevent flooding of the road and ponding on the road surface
2.To protect the bearing capacity of the pavement and the subgrade material
3.To avoid the erosion of the side slope.

Street Lighting• Street lights are provided mainly to improve
road safety at night, but we know that they also help to reduce crime and the fear of crime, and to enhance the night-time urban environment.
• Generally, all roads, car parks and footpaths
adopted (owned) by Roads Service in urban areas are lit. Exceptions to this include rear paths which only give local access, and sections of adopted urban roads where there is no continuous development.

Pedestrian behavior
Major factor for the safety on the road.
Unawareness and lack of facilities disrupting the roadway condition
![Page 34: Roadway condition survey & Traffic Volume Study](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55c40c80bb61eb86448b4686/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Lack of authorization of law :

Improper maintenance and use of the road :
![Page 39: Roadway condition survey & Traffic Volume Study](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013115/55c40c80bb61eb86448b4686/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
1. THE SURFACE CONDITION OF ROADWAY WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH AND ACCORDING THE CODE THE MEDIANS WERE NOT GEOMETRICALLY RIGHT. FOR THE LACK OF MAINTENANCE THE ROAD MARKS WAS ALMOST INVISIBLE. SO THE RECOMMENDATION IS THE REGULAR AND CAREFUL MAINTENANCE SHOULD BE DONE.
2. THE ELECTRONIC SIGNALS WERE ALMOST SHADED BY TREES AND BILLBOARDS, SOME OF THEM WERE NOT WORKABLE. SO THE RECOMMENDATION IS THOSE TREES SHOULD BE CUT AND THE BILL BOARDS SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THERE.
3. THE ROAD SIGNS WERE OLD AND COVERED BY POSTERS AND WAS ALSO BROKEN, SO IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT THOSE SHOULD BE REPLACED WITH NEW ONE.
4. ESTABLISHING CLEAR ADMINISTRATIVE RESPONSIBILITIES AT ALL LEVELS OF GOVT. FOR COORDINATION OF INITIATIVES TO PROMOTE SAFE WALKING IS RECOMMENDED.
5. THERE WAS NO EXTRA FACILITIES FOR BLIND, OLD OR AUTISTIC PEOPLE FOR USING THE ROAD OR CROSSING THE ROADS SAFELY. SO SOME EXTRA FACILITIES LIKE WIDER ZEBRA CROSSING, WIDER FOOTPATH, EXTRA TRAFFIC POLICE CARE IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDATION
Recommendation
