Low Volume Roads Manual, Volume 2: Geometric Design and Road Safety: Malawi
The Manual takes account of best practice developments in low volume roads technology both regionally and internationally
Abstract
This Design Manual for Low Volume Roads applies to the pavement design of District, Community and Private roads in rural areas and lower-order road and street networks in urban environments in Malawi. The main purpose of the Manual is to provide all practitioners with comprehensive guidance on the wide range of factors that need to be addressed in a holistic and environmentally sustainable manner when designing unpaved roads or undertaking their upgrading to a paved standard. The Manual takes account of best practice developments in low volume roads technology that have evolved both regionally and internationally in the past few decades. This part constitutes Volume 2 on Geometric design for rural and urban roads and road safety.
This work is part of the Applied Research on Rural Roads and Transport Services through Community Access Programmes in Africa and Asia (AFCAP2 and AsCAP)
