Abstract

In line with the key programme stages identified in the Inception Report this document presents a summary of the review undertaken of the application existing Ethiopian LVR Design Manual within the context of the South Sudan low volume road environment. It also aims to summarise the key contents of each of the previously identified chapters and sections of the proposed South Sudan Low Volume Road (SSLVR) Manual.

This report will enable members of the Technical Working Group (TWG) and other key stakeholders to review progress; comment on the proposed SSLVR Manual; and to suggest amendments and additional inclusions.

Following an Introduction, Chapter 2 of this document reiterates the structure of the proposed document as agreed at the First TWG Meeting and Workshop, with minor subsequent adjustments.

Chapter 3 presents the summary review of the Ethiopian document and the following Chapters 4 to 6 summarise the sections within the proposed SSLVR Manual.
