    This document discusses the key stages of a highway construction project including planning, project development, final design, right-of-way acquisition, and construction. It also outlines some of the major components of highway construction including earthworks to prepare the land, and pavement structures that can be either flexible or rigid. Flexible pavements are made of asphalt layers over a compacted subgrade while rigid pavements use reinforced concrete slabs.

     A highway is any public road or other public
    way on land.
     It is used for major roads, but also includes
    other public roads and public tracks:
     A public road that all may use
     A main route for any form of transport

     need for any highway or bridge improvement
    project takes place during the planning stage.

    After a project has been planned and programmed for


    implementation, it moves into the project
    development phase. At this stage, the
    environmental analysis intensifies. The level of
    environmental review varies widely, depending
    on the scale and impact of the project.

    After a preferred alternative has been selected and the


    project description agreed upon as stated in the
    environmental document, a project can move into the
    final design stage.
    Once the final designs have been prepared and
    needed right-of-way is purchased, construction bid
    packages are made available, a contractor is
    selected, and construction is initiation. During the
    right-of-way acquisition and construction stages,
    minor adjustments in the design may be necessary;
    therefore, there should be continuous involvement
    of the design team throughout these stages.

    Construction may be simple or complex and may


    require a few months to several years. Once
    construction has been completed, the facility is
    ready to begin its normal sequence of operations
    and maintenance.

    Earth work
    structure
     The earthworks team should aim to provide an
    earthworks design that is feasible, functional,
    constructible and suitable for the proposed use.
    Consideration should be given to land
    requirements, including all temporary works.
     The design should be developed to minimize
    environmental impact during construction
    phase, in use and for future maintenance
    operations.
     Pavement is the actual travel surface especially
    made durable and serviceable to withstand the
    traffic load commuting upon it. Pavement
    grants friction for the vehicles thus providing
    comfort to the driver and transfers the traffic
    load from the upper surface to the natural soil.

    Flexible Rigid
     A flexible, or asphalt, typically consists of four
    layers. These is a surface course, base course, and
    sub base course constructed over a compacted,
    natural soil sub grade.
     A flexible pavement structure is typically
    composed of several layers of material with better
    quality materials on top where the intensity of
    stress from traffic loads is high and lower quality
    materials at the bottom where the stress intensity
    is low. Flexible pavements can be analyzed as a
    multilayer system under loading.
     The rigid characteristic of the pavement are
    associated with rigidity or flexural strength or
    slab action so the load is distributed over a
    wide area of sub grade soil. Rigid pavement is
    laid in slabs with steel reinforcement.
     The rigid pavements are made of cement
    concrete either plan, reinforced concrete.
     Rigid pavement is designed and analyzed by
    using the elastic theory
