G - Chapter 1 - 1 1. THE AIMS OF THIS BOOKLET This Booklet has been developed by the Ethiopian Road Authority as one of a number of initiatives to help rapidly expand, develop and maintain the rural road network to provide greatly improved road access and lower the transport costs for rural communities. The Booklet specifically sets out guidance for Weredas, Kebeles and all local communities on how to maintain their own road access using the limited resources available to them. It also advises how it may be possible to mobilise outside resources to enhance the impact of their own initiatives. By focussing on the use and mobilisation of available local resources, such as a range of materials and local labour and skills, it is entirely possible to build and maintain durable all-weather road access suitable for all traffic from pedestrians and animal transport up to buses and trucks. The Booklet advises: •¡ What needs to be done to achieve all-year Basic Road Access; •¡ How to identify the main problems/defects and solve them; •¡ How to make the most of local materials and skills; •¡ How to maintain the road access at low cost; •¡ How to make priorities •¡ How to organise and plan the work •¡ Where to obtain further advice and outside assistance. The Maintenance activities and codes are according to the ERA Maintenance Technical Specifications and proposed amendments. PART G: WEREDA ROAD MAINTENANCE BOOKLET
