ROAD INVENTORY AND CONDITION SURVEY

1.1 GENERAL

Road inventory and condition survey provides basic information needed for effective
transportation and road system planning, management, operations and maintenance.
The scope of improvement measures on the existing road and widening proposals with
economic justification depends upon the condition of the existing road. Detailed
surveys/investigations of the existing road were therefore conducted on project stretch
of NH-11A from Km. 0.000 to Km. 62.000 & NH-11A Ext. from Km.0.000 to Km.83.000
in order to prepare the road inventory and condition survey for appropriate
improvement proposals.

1.1.1 Project Description & Existing Scenario

The project stretch of NH-11A starts from Dausa at Km. 0.000 and ends at Manoharpur
at Km. 62.000. The section of NH-11A Ext. starts from Dausa at Km. 0.000 and ends
at Kauthun at Km. 83.000 in the state of Rajasthan. The total length of the project is
145.000 Km. The Project road passes through Kareda, Bhurti, Rajdhira Pura, Hodayali,
Lalsot on NH-11A Ext. and Bhikawala, Ratnapura, Nekawala, Chilpali and Bobadi on
NH-11A.

The Location map of the project road is shown in Figure-1 below. The Joint Venture of
M/s Aarvee Associates Architects Engineers & Consultants Pvt. Ltd. and M/s Nag
Infrastructure Consulting Engineers Pvt Ltd (Technical Consultants) has been awarded
the assignment.

1.1.2 Socio
Economic profile
The project influence areas of the proposed project comprises of four districts i.e
Dausa, Jaipur and Tonk in the state of Rajasthan. Rajasthan is the largest state of
republic of India. It covers 10.4% of India over 342,239 [Link]. with a population of
68.62 million as per 2011 census. It has a population density of around 201 persons
per [Link]. against 370/sq. km of the country and the literacy rate is around 68%. The
major cash crops grown in the state includes Wheat, barley, mustard seeds and Pulses.

1.2 PROJECT BACKGROUND

The Project road falls in four districts namely Dausa, Jaipur and Tonk in the state of
Rajasthan and comprises of NH-11A which starts at Km. 0.000 in Dausa and ends at
Km. 62.000 in Manoharpur and NH-11A Ext. starts at Km. 0.000 in Dausa and ends at
Km. 83.000 in Kauthun. The project corridor connects NH12 at Kauthun, NH11 at
Dausa and NH8 at Manoharpur. The development of the project into 2 lane with paved
shoulders will result in safe and efficient traffic operation and will serve a vital role in
accommodating the future growth in traffic.

Moderately built-up areas and a mix of fast and slow traffic characterizes this corridor.
The project corridor passes through agricultural and built-up areas and some length
of the project stretch passes through forest and hills. The present project envisages
rehabilitation and up-gradation of existing 2 lane to 2 lane with paved shoulder
configuration. Figure-2 shows the start and end points of the project stretch.

1.3 SCOPE OF WORK

The scope of Road Inventory and Condition survey includes the following tasks:

✓ Condition of the project road and utilities

✓ Carriageway width, surface type and width, shoulder type and width
✓ Details of horizontal and vertical alignment
✓ Road intersection type and details
✓ Height of embankment or depth of cut
 ✓ Locations of culverts, bridges and other structures
✓ Surface distress type and extent

1.4 INVENTORY SURVEYS

1.4.1 Road Inventory

An inventory of the project road has been carried out by visual observations
supplemented with sample measurements using measuring tape, scale and straight
edge. Kilometre wise features like terrain, land-use, pavement type & condition and
carriageway width, shoulder type, condition & width, nature of soil, curve geometry,
intersection details, location of water bodies, height of embankment or depth of cut,
cross drainage structures, existing utility services, general drainage conditions etc.,
have been recorded. The road inventory has been referenced to the existing kilometre
& hectometre stones established along the roadside. The details of road inventory
survey collected at every 100m are presented in Annexure-1 of Volume-IIA.

1.4.2 Terrain
Terrain is classified by the general slope of the country across the highway alignment.
Based on this criteria, the entire project section traverses through plain and rolling
terrain. Figure-3 shows the plain terrain of the project stretch.

Figure-3: Terrain
1.4.3 Land Use
The Project road passes through Kareda, Bhurti, Rajdhira Pura, Hodayali, Lalsot on NH-
11A Ext. and Bhikawala, Ratnapura, Bobadi, Nekawala and Chilpali on NH-11A. The
majority of adjoining lands are used for agriculture purposes and the rest is barren
land. The important crop grown along the project stretch is Mustard Seeds. The type
of land use pattern that exists along the project corridor is presented in Table-1 and in

Observations:
• The Project road is entirely composed of flexible pavement except at
 locations of causeways which is of Cement Concrete surface. Unpaved road
is observed in small length in NH-11A and NH-11A Ext.

• The existing carriageway of the project road is of 2 lane carriageway and an

earthen shoulder of width 1.0m in NH-11A and 1.0 to 1.50m varying width
in NH-11A Ext. on both sides.

• The existing road condition varies from Good to Poor, except at some
locations where its condition is very poor with distresses of more than their
desirable limits.

• The surface condition of the pavement varies from good to poor condition.
Although in most of the stretch, pavement distresses were observed in the
form of Block, Map/Alligator cracking, ravelling and potholes.

• The Earthen Shoulders condition varies from good to poor on both sides of
the road. It is observed that there is material loss in shoulders on both sides.

• Unlined drains exists almost entire length of the project stretch and they
are partially functioning. At built-up locations, covered and lined drains are
observed which are functioning well.

• The pavement has structural failures which can be attributed to the

insufficient layers and requires rehabilitation.

1.5.1 Pavement Condition

The pavement type is flexible throughout the section except at causeways which is
cement concrete. Earthen road is observed in small lengths in NH-11A and NH-11A
Ext. The visual riding quality of the pavement varies from Good to Poor. Distresses
such as Longitudinal, Block, Alligator cracks, ravelling and pot holes were observed on
pavement surface in intermittent sections.

The criteria used for the pavement condition is, no cracking or rutting less than 10mm
is classified as Good, rutting observed between 10mm to 20mm is classified as Fair
and rutting more than 20mm or cracking exceeding 20 percent is treated as Poor.
Based on the observations made in field, it is understood that some parts of the stretch
are severely effected with distress like ravelling, potholes and map cracking more than
the desirable limits (>20%). The main causes for these distresses are insufficient
bituminous layers, excessive overloaded vehicles, inadequate compaction of surface
layers, lack of proper bond between bituminous layer and underlying WBM layer. At
portions where distresses are more than the desirable limits, reconstruction is
proposed which are mentioned in Table-7, and places with distresses within the limits
needs treatment of surface layers.
The treatment for all types of cracks is, cracks should be filled with a bituminous binder
having a low viscosity so that it can be poured and worked into the cracks. For cracks
of >3mm width, a slurry seal or sand bituminous premix patching can be used to fill
the cracks.

The treatment for ravelling is, application of cut-back bitumen covered with coarse
sand or a slurry seal or a renewal coat with premix material would be necessary.

The condition of the project stretch and reconstruction stretches are presented in
Tables-7 & 8.

The information about pavement condition was collected in the form of percentage of
area of cracking, pot-holed, ravelled surface and pavement edge fretting by length
(m). The severity of pavement deterioration is presented in Table-9. Figures-11 and
12 shows various types of distresses and condition of the pavement.

1.5.2 Shoulder Condition

Width of earthen shoulder on either side of road is 1.0m in NH-11A & vary from 1.0m
to 1.5m in NH-11A Ext. along the stretch. The condition of the shoulder varies from
good to poor. The details of the shoulder condition is given in Annexure -II(a) &
II(b) of Volume-IIA. The condition of shoulder is presented in Table-10 and the
typical condition of earthen shoulder is shown in Figure-13, below.

1.6 SOCIAL IMPACT

1.6.1 Religious Structures / Educational Institutions

There are few religious structures along the carriageway of the existing road, which
will get affected either fully or partially with further widening of the carriageway. Most
of the religious structures have been observed within a distance of 3m-10m from the
edge of the earthen shoulder. Proper provision must be considered for relocating these
structures before the project starts to avoid any land acquisition conflict and communal
problems. Figure-15 shows the religious structure abutting the carriageway. The
location of various religious structures are given in Table – 11, as shown below.

1.6.2 Utilities
The project road have utilities that come in the way of the proposed widening scheme.
The cellular towers and high tensioned electrical towers are at a distance of about 10
to 20m from the road edge. Near the habitation places, the electrical poles and the
electrical towers are need to be relocated for the purpose of widening and their
locations are given in Table-12.
