Hello to all. I was reviewing some articles on the Web that you might be interested in. The first is about Key Performance Indictors for Unsealed Road. This is a paper about how a New Zealand Council is assessing to see if they meet their service targets. It is a detailed approach and it might be a bit resources hungry for smaller councils. I have been implementing a similar approach with a larger council in QLD you can view a presentation online.
The second is a manual in pdf format all about managing low volumed roads. It is a very useful article and I would highly suggested downloading and keeping for future reference. In the manual it talks about the correct selection of gravels for unsealed roads, which is something I have been working with councils in QLD on with good results. You can assess your gravel quality online. Unsealed
and Sealed Low Volume Road Technology in South Africa
... The third is a useful site that gives you descriptions for different defect types with photo on unsealed roads and some other useful information that could be useful when doing a presentation.
Hope this information helps. This has been a newsletter from www.unsealedroads.com a web site all about managing unsealed road networks on limited budgets. Regards,
