Abstract

For the effective utilisation of available resources, this project aims to develop a prioritisation methodology for the development, upgradation and maintenance of the rural roads by the Bangladeshi authorities (LGED).

The main objectives of this study include:

  1. development of a methodology on planning and prioritisation of rural roads;

  2. development of an application tool (software) to implement the methodology;

  3. production of a user manual and training of 15 professionals to use the tool.

This final report provides the details of the planning and prioritisation methodology and discusses the results generated by the application tool for the pilot district.

This project is funded by DFID under the Applied Research on Rural Roads and Transport Services through Community Access Programmes in Africa and Asia (AFCAP2 and AsCAP)
