    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]The study cover a view and a detailed explanation of the modification required to be carried out on the main access road linkage of the Campus III Industrial center from federal Secretariat to Mass Communication Department of the Institution in order to update its services and functions.The need for easing the flow of traffic on this access road shall rise, since it s a commercial center in the institution. It is required that the toad be revamped and generally upgraded. The existing road is no ... Continue reading---

         

      CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]GENERAL INTRODUCTIONFor effective design and control of the road system by w\engineers, there is demand of a close study of human behaviour with an understanding of the limitation of human performance in the varied circumstances of the road environment (Lourens et al,.2000).The following factors has to be s\consideredThe road userThe vehicleThe road environmentThese form a complex interactive system where performance is measured in terms of worthwhile investment leading to user confidence and ac ...
