Construction Phase

  • Identify entry and exit points for construction vehicles.
  • Develop a traffic flow plan to minimize disruption.
  • Implement safety measures for pedestrians and cyclists.
  • Communicate plans to local authorities and stakeholders.
  • Ensure signage is visible to direct traffic effectively.
  • Clear the site of vegetation and debris.
  • Excavate to required depth for subgrade preparation.
  • Test soil compaction and stability before proceeding.
  • Shape the subgrade to ensure proper drainage.
  • Prepare the area for base layer installation.
  • Determine locations for drainage pipes and catch basins.
  • Excavate trenches for drainage system installation.
  • Install pipes with a slight slope for effective drainage.
  • Test drainage systems to ensure functionality.
  • Coordinate with utility providers to install necessary services.
  • Select appropriate base materials based on design specifications.
  • Spread base materials evenly across the prepared area.
  • Use compaction equipment to achieve required density.
  • Check for level and smoothness throughout the base.
  • Perform quality control tests for base layer integrity.
  • Choose paving material based on environmental conditions.
  • Prepare the base for paving by ensuring it is clean.
  • Apply asphalt or concrete uniformly across the surface.
  • Monitor temperature during asphalt laying for quality.
  • Allow proper curing time for concrete before use.
  • Determine dimensions and materials for shoulders and curbs.
  • Excavate areas for sidewalks according to design plans.
  • Form curbs and prep for concrete pouring.
  • Install sidewalks with proper slope for drainage.
  • Finish surfaces to ensure safety and accessibility.
  • Identify locations for traffic signs based on regulations.
  • Install signs securely and ensure visibility.
  • Use appropriate materials for road markings.
  • Apply markings with precision to avoid confusion.
  • Regularly inspect signage and markings for maintenance needs.
