CHAPTER FIVE
5.0 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
5.1 CONCLUSION
In conclusion, base on the fact collected from conditional survey and questionnaire method seen distribution to the various organization bodies, the drivers and Elite people in Egbejila Community Area. The road failed due to lack of drainage and the bad formation of the soil, which as not be construct before, the road normally affect the mode of transportation during the raining season which lead to the low traffic performance
Summary of the result on the defects roads, on the conditional survey the major problem were the portholes, edge break and lack of drainage which normally increase traffic congestion to the road users or transporter. Also base on traffic volume count been conducted it shown in page 25, that the road has a low traffic characteristic.
Lastly all these problem mentioned affect the level of education, health, social amenities and infrastructure activities which lead to the wasted of most of their agricultural product and low price of the commodities
Also government policies highly recognized the importance of marketing to the commercialization of agriculture and expansion of agricultural productivities, government of the state of local government should performed adequate support in order to improved road is not exist.
5.2 RECOMMENDATION
In order to improve the state of rural road, so that failure will become a things of the past and based on the information gathered and analysis of relevant data collected on the research work the following recommendation are here given .
1. Proper planning: planning is the bedrock of every success full project. If we are to improved on how the state of rural road materials we need to plan before, during and after the project execution
2. Climate condition: climate condition must be checked before the commencement of the project to present delay during the execution alteration in the construction. Also it affect the choice of materials and dominates (influence) design and performance.
3. Both the federal and state ministry of works (FMW)or (SMW) should ensure that their organization parastaltal also in charge of road maintenance like FERMA and KWARMA carryout regular inspection and maintenance on the roads this will ensure effectiveness and higher efficiency on rural road. Also proper monitoring on the traffic capacity of the road should be ensured to determine the need to be singly or dualized.
4. The engineer should make provision for the design of the drainage system in order to protect the road from surfaced and ground water. It water is allowed to penetrate the structure of the road pavement will be weakened and it will be more susceptive to drainage by traffic and the road surface must be constructed into the drainage system.
5. The road contract should always be awarded to contractor on merit not on political bases
6. Stakeholder in the construction industry should ensure that the road agencies like federal road safety corps (FRSC) vehicle inspection officer (VIO). Federal road maintenance agency (FERMA) and individual saddled with the responsibility of road maintenance carryout routine surveillance services to detect failure at early stages, this will not only prevent massive road rehabilitation but provide comfort ability for road users, reduces the rate of accident and traffic congestion. Create a high level of safety against highways robbery attack.
7. Embrace quality material: we must use quality material for rural road construction and make sure that all the required step for road construction are strictly followed.
