Abstract
Unpaved roads require periodic road
works to maintain a certain road condition over time,
comprising typically of routine maintenance, grading, spot
regravelling, and regravelling activities, which require
planning and economic justification. A main concern in
developing counties is defining a proper level of
investments and quality of maintenance on unpaved roads.
This technical note, targeted to road sector professionals,
presents a methodology for an analytical study done to
access economically justified levels of road works
expenditures on unpaved roads with different traffic levels.
The results presented in this technical note should be
considered no more than a first approximation of country
specific results. To obtain country specific results, the
methodology should be replicated and adapted with refined
country data.
