Abstract

This paper presents the causes of poor surface drainage and its impact on pavement’s performance. In order to attain this factors initially investigated to understand the poor surface drainage such as; cross slope and amount run off and then the effects that this poor drainage impose on the structural as well as functional performances of the pavement. This study was conducted in bole sub-city specifically on Gerji road, Addis Ababa in which the road is known for discomfort and unsafe riding surface due to over flooding and pounding of water on the surface of pavement. Research results showed that the road in both right and left sides didn’t attain the minimum value of cross slope for adequate drainage which is 2.5% and the other factor is the actual amount of runoff is much greater than the designed one. This factor come up with high value of IRI for the right and left side of the road and also the value of mean RRD for the road is 0.95mm. This research concluded that drainage condition has strong relationship with the structural and functional inadequacy of pavements as well as on intensities of distresses.
