Abstract:

A methodology is developed in this study for prioritization of rural road for their improvement. Rural road are tertiary system in any road network, but connect largest habitation to big cities. As we know that largest population of India is living in rural area, and maximum of them are dependent on agriculture. It is mandatory for better development of any country to built rural roads to connect people of this area to urban area. This study gives a list of factors which affect rural road and their relative weightage. This weightage are carried out with the help of analytical hierarchy process. Analytical hierarchy process is a mathematical tool to determine relative weights of factors. Actual condition rating of these factors is multiplied with weightage of factors and rural road improvement index (RRII) is determined. Lower the value of rural road improvement index indicates good condition of road.
