Abstract

Roads and Highways Department (RHD) of Bangladesh uses the Highway Development and Management Model (HDM-4) to undertake efficient decisions on managing its road network including rural roads. However, it is observed thatonly economic analysis, using the HDM-4 model, sometimes under estimates rural roads. Hence, a Strategic Planning Model (SPM) based Multi Criteria Analysis (MCA) approach has been considered as example using political, social, environment, job creation, safety and economic factors to manage rural roads appropriately. A SPM basically considered HDM-4 economic results with political, social, job creation, safety and environment factors to finalize treatments priority. The results show that SPM based MCA can betteraddress rural roads. A complete MCA can be introduced in RHD to manage its rural roads properly in future. For the covering abstract see ITRD E139491.
