1.2 PROJECT OVERVIEW AND DESCRIPTION OF THE WORKS
1.2.1 Overview
Lichinga to Litunde Road Rehabilitation Project stretches for approximately 66 km between
the roundabout in Lulimile suburb of Lichinga and Litunde in Niassa Province; refer to project
location map under Appendix 1-1.
The road is being upgraded by means of widening and strengthening and widening and
resealing of the existing carriageway. The rehabilitated carriageway width will generally
provide for 2 x 3.5m wide traffic lanes, 2 x 0.5m sealed shoulders and 2 x 1.0m cement
stabilized gravel shoulders.
The stretch between Lichinga and Litunde is subdivided in three distinct sections:
1. The first 7 km section, km 0+000 to km 7+140, is an existing 6 m wide surfaced road
that is in fair condition and is to be widened and to receive double seal surface treatment
(DBST) as reseal.
2. From km 7+140 to km 57+870 exists a 4 m wide surfaced road that was resealed not
long ago and that is also in fair condition. In this section the pavement is to be
strengthened, widened and DBST surfaced.
3. From km 57+870 to km 66+200 the road has a width of 6.1 m to km 7.5, that in some
stretches widens to 8 m, with a paved surface in good condition. This section is to be
widened and resealed.
The work consists also of five post stressed girder and slab, one three span and four single span,
bridges that locate outside the project road, but along the same route, between Litunde and
Marrupa.

(**) The contractor submitted a revised program on 4th
October 2015 to replace the June
tentative Program. According to this current program and as can be observed from the above
the Contractor is behind schedule in construction of sub-base and in construction of Lugenda,
Uriate and Necoleze Bridges. During the review period production has been negiligible This
was mainly due to unavailability of cement for the sub-base. There was also shortage of diesel
internitently caused by cash flow problem. The Contractor needs to submit another revised
program to reflect the real progress.
2.3.1 Survey &Setting out
During the review period survey activities consisted mainly of checks on Subgrade, sub-base
and base for the purpose of compliance with the permissible level tolerance limits, setting out
works on abutment embankment slopes and concrete lined side drains. All survey works
concerning the road alignment and cross sections of the road have been completed.
2.3.2 Traffic Management
The status of Traffic Management is satisfactory with traffic management signs now being
erected as necessary despite the problem faced with vandalism.

2.3.3 Materials Laboratory
The Materials Laboratory has been fully operational over the review period with all equipment
supplied to the contract specifications and being in satisfactory condition and having been
calibrated at project resumption. Further equipment calibration is being done as and when
necessary..
2.3.4 Engineer’s Facilities
The Engineer’s houses and offices are satisfactory. Occupation of the same has been effected
as necessary.
The following project vehicles are available to the Engineer
• 1 x 3000 diesel LWB Four by four double cab Toyota Raider.

are shown in the schedules presented under Appendix 5-2.
5.4.1 Materials from Borrow pits
Sampling and testing for confirmatory tests on CBR, UCS, ITS, durability, Atterberg Limits
and Linear Shrinkage were carried out for the material that was used for construction of all
layer works. The results submitted have been compliant and written approvals have been given
to the contractor as necessary.
5.4.2 Material from Sub-base and Base Layers
Samples of materials from cement stabilized sub base and base layers worked on during the
report period were tested for Indicators,field and laboratory Density, Optimum Moisture
Content (OMC), Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) and Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS)
tests and all test results are compliant.
5.4.3 Aggregates for Surface Dressing

Page 32 of 48
5.5 SOURCES OF MATERIALS
The sources of materials that have been identified and approved to date are as shown in the table
included under Appendix 5.3.
5.6 DESIGN MODIFICATION
The Contractor proposed that the modified binder Colflex SE1 specified in the Lichinga Litunde
Road Rehabilitation and Upgrading project to be replaced by the penetration grade bitumen
70/100 of which 330 tons are available at their Montepois Works Yard. The proposal is done
mainly due to the non availability of the SE1 binder at the Lichinga Site because of sever cash
flow problem the Contractor is facing at this point in time. The contractor’s proposal is passed to
the ANE with the Engineer’s recommendation for their consideration.
5.7 ISSUES, PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
5.7.1 Damaged base layer
The following two sections were rejected due to damage during the works suspension period
caused by vehicular traffic and surface run-off during rains.
• The Base sections of the shoulders from chainage 0+900 to 7+140
• The full width base within chainages 23+350 to 25+860
Instructions were issued to the contractor for rectification of both sections following which
the section km 23+350 to km 25+860 had already been rectified during the month of
September 2015.
5.7.2 Railway Crossing
The stabilization works of the base layer and surfacing of the section km 10+150 to km
11+450 could not be completed due to issues concerning level differences between the
finished road level and the levels at which the railway lines were crossing. This had to be
discussed with Corridor de Desenvolvimento de Norte (CDN) and Vale. This discussion was
concluded on 29th September 2015 and the two organizations have now given their consent
that the road can be constructed at the current design levels. Instructions to proceed with the
construction works had been issued to the Contractor early October 2015.
5.7.3 Non-Conformances
The following non-conformances, all caused by the Contractor, were discovered during the
review period.
• Wrong alignment setting out on the Lichinga side approach of Uriate Bridge.
Following the wrong setting out a wrong work was done which now needs
rectification.
• Abutment embankment slope, left hand side on the Lichinga side, was set out
wrongly and the slope is cut to the wrong inclination.
• Wrong design of inserting a left curve between two right curves instead of joining
them with a tangent. Alignment looks aukward. Needs to be changed. But requires
only minimal rectification.
• Wrong alignment setting out on Lichinga side of Lureco bridge approach. Work
commenced on the wrong premise and therefore needs rectification by the Contractor.
