How are Roads Constructed in Pakistan?

in Architecture+Designlast year (edited)

Hello everyone!

I hope you will be well and good. Today I am going to share the architectural work of the road of my village. The construction of the road is going on after many years.

The road was ruined and it was hard for everything to travel on that road through the digs at the road. It is a 25 kilometers long road with a width of almost 30 feet.

You can see here the digs on the roads. This road has such types of scratches and long digs after every few distances. And these are very harmful and cause accidents and damage to vehicles as well.

The government has approved this road and the workers are digging up this road as you can see in the above picture. The work is going on for the last few days so I decided to share this construction of the road with you guys about how the roads are constructed in Pakistan and especially in my area.

The machines have dug the road and after digging it the machines are ploughing through that place as you can see in the above picture. And now this road is becoming more wide and more elevated.

Some machines are pushing the collection of stones and newly added clay on the road and making it flat. You can see in the above picture a machine is pushing and flatting the raw material. Actually it is a two in one machine and at the end there are forks which are ploughing and at the front there is a machine which is making the surface flat.

Look at these machines these are also being used for digging and then pressing the material down by ploughing. These machines are destroying the already available concrete or road and then some machines are holding them and the workers are transferring to another place. And that material is being used for the elevation of the road.

Workers are putting the clay at the dug places and then they are putting the dug concrete material on the clay and then the above looking machines are mixing the concrete and the clay and making a homogeneous mixture.

If these machines are not used then the clay at one place can be dumped and then the road will be destroyed again.

Here you can see that the road has been dug and the clay has been installed and pressed with the help of pressing machines by applying water. They are making and repairing the road by dividing it into two parts because it is a busy road.

They are doing a great job while making the road. The water flows which are going under the road are also a problem for the construction of the road. You can see in the above picture the glow of water under the road. They are digging them as well and reconstructing them with the bricks so that they cannot make any problem to the road. You can see the bricks and one path of water has been built and now they will make a bridge on that water path on which the road will be constructed.

Here you can see other machines which are used to press the small stones and make the road flat. This work is only possible with these machines otherwise it is not possible. When these stones are being pressed down by the machine then the surroundings vibrate and it looks like that earthquake is happening.

Some stages of road construction have been completed in a few places. At these places the stones have been spread and pressed down along with the cement and other material as you can see above. Water is being used continuously on those parts to make it more strong and hard and to check if there is any place which can be dumped.

Due to the construction of the road and a small portion of road for use it is very difficult to drive because of a lot of traffic. And I saw a bike which slipped due to the stones and due to the water. My bike was also about to slip but we remained safe.

When the construction will be completed then I will be sharing the newly created road with all of you as well.

It's good that the contractors are doing a great job with the road opening/construction. Hope they will finish it sooner. Would be interesting to see how it is when completed.
