ASSESSMENT OF TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PRACTICES: THE CASE OF ROAD PROJECTS UNDER CONSTRUCTION IN ADDIS ABABA
Urban transport serves as veins to accelerate developments in industry, trade, education, health and other services. However, there is no compatible urban transport supply and effective management to meet the increasing trip frequency and mobility needs of the people and goods which resulted in the significance of the issue. Among the different challenges of the urban transport, Poor traffic management during construction & maintenance of roads is the one. Traffic Management Plan (TMP) is prepared to identify and outline the manner in which construction traffic will be managed to ensure the safe and efficient performance of the road network, to minimize adverse effects on the existing community arising from construction traffic, and to provide the community with information about specific management methods to be employed during construction. The plan encompasses public awareness campaigns, motorist information, demand management, incident management, system management, construction methods and staging, and alternate route planning. According to Addis Ababa City Road Authority's(AACRA) construction specification any new road construction or maintenance activates, in addition to the structural works, has to focus on the safe flow of traffic and the protection of persons and property through and/or around the work site for the duration of the project. However, the current road construction working trend is far behind what is expected in relative to its contractual provision and international experience. Moreover it is creating additionalcongestion onthecitytraffic system, unsafe vehicular and pedestrian movement and unfavorable living and working condition around the work site. This project work studied two selected road construction projects in city as a case study and an interview was made with the consultant, contractor and client of the projects. According to the interview and site observation, it looks that both parties only focuses on physical achievement, and poorly concerned for traffic management chaos resulted from road construction projects. And it is causing inconvenient way of movement for the users/public.
