This paper review some of the aspects of necessary disciplines of geomorphology and roads,with emphasize Soleghan road. For building this road didn’t consider geomorphology processcarefully. so the safety rang of the road is low and with consider to increasing traffic, the rang ofdanger is high. Specific subjects are related to the description of slops phenomena, including rock fall,block slide, rock creep, talus creep, debris flow, rock avalanches and floods. The river process, sloopsteep, joint and fault system are the most important geomorphologic information of the Soleghan road.Soleghan road have been studied in this view and thus provide information which take the basis ofstability road. Every road in Iran or world can include one or some important process, so someinformation is needed. More than half of Iran and world roads have built about before 1970, when thegeomorphologic education and research was in the early of stage. Therefore many of Iran and worldroads such as Soleghan road haven’t built with new geomorphologic and basic information. Too moredamages which in order to geomorphologic process exposed to roads, people and cars in Iran andworld such as Soleghan road are increased. Many flood and slumps destroyed built roads, many peopleand cars, damage or crash to ignoring the geomorphologic information, thus if we use geomorphologicinformation in road building, damage and crashes will be decreased, so safety will be increase.
