Abstract
This report covers activities in Ghana. These activities include the selection of test sites that are typical of labour-based roads in Ghana, monitoring and evaluating their performance and estimating their life-cycle costs. This report is part of a series of publications from a project whose goal was to promote sustainable livelihoods and contribute to the socio-economic development of disadvantaged rural populations through the provision of improved road access. The purpose was to reduce the life-time costs of unpaved rural roads by promoting appropriate engineering standards, planning tools and works procedures for labour-based construction and maintenance.
