This project proposal outlines the design of a 4.5km road between Nawakilli and Balili check post in Pakistan. A team of 6 students led by Amjad Pervez will conduct surveys, soil tests, and design geometrical features like culverts, curves, and causeways. They will use software like GPS and AutoCAD and follow standards from AASHTO for geometric design and pavement design. The objectives are to connect rural areas and increase transportation access. Upon completion, the new road will economically link nearby villages.

7. Abstract:
A road is a thoroughfare route, or way on the land between two places
which has been paved or otherwise improved to allow travel by some
conveyance, including a horse, cart, or motorcycle vehicle. Designing of
our road is based upon the AASHTO specifications under the following
standards, Geometric design: AASHTO 2001 and Pavement design:
AASHTO 1986-Road note 31-1993.
By carrying out survey & levelling collected the road data which is
further required to draw the long-sections & cross-sections. By gathering
the soil samples from the road site we then performed specified tests. All
the above information will be used to design the road.
8. Objectives
The prime objective of this project is to connect the rural area (Shah
wali) with Nawakilli and Saraghurgai.
The aim of this project work is to fulfil the demand of the road for the
sake of increasing population, for which we will have to plan and design
the road. In this project we will work on the Softwares related to
Transportation engineering e.g. GPS for finding the coordinates of the
proposed road. AutoCAD for drawing L-sections & Cross sections.
