Abstract

The Africa Community Access Partnership (AfCAP) has provided technical assistance to foster improvements in asset management performance in selected rural road agencies in four countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. The 4 countries participating are Zambia, Uganda, Sierra Leone and the Western Cape region of South Africa. The project promoted a change in the approach of rural road agencies towards the management of their road networks; it encouraged a holistic approach, where road agencies consider all six building blocks of the Road Preservation Pyramid. Based on the project, a practitioners’ guidelines has been developed for effective rural road asset management. The guidelines include performance assessment and management tools that were developed and tested in the field.
