ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS<br />
The Ethiopian <strong>Roads</strong> Authority (ERA) wishes to thank the UK Government’s Department <strong>for</strong> International<br />
Development (DFID) through their Africa Community Access Programme (AFCAP) <strong>for</strong> their support<br />
in developing this <strong>Low</strong> <strong>Volume</strong> <strong>Roads</strong> design manual. The manual will be used by all authorities and<br />
organisations responsible <strong>for</strong> the provision of low volume roads in Ethiopia.<br />
From the outset, the approach to the development of the manual was to include all sectors and<br />
stakeholders in Ethiopia. The input from the international team of experts was supplemented by our own<br />
extensive local experience and expertise. Local knowledge and experience was shared through a series<br />
of four “in<strong>for</strong>mation gathering” workshops followed by a review workshop to discuss and debate the<br />
contents of the draft manual. ERA wishes to thank all the individuals who gave their time to attend the<br />
five workshops and provide valuable inputs to the compilation of the manual.<br />
In addition to the workshops, Peer Groups comprising specialists drawn from within the local industry,<br />
were established to provide advice and comments in their respective areas of expertise. The contribution<br />
of the Peer Group participants is gratefully acknowledged.<br />
The final review and acceptance of the document was undertaken by an Executive Review Group. Special<br />
thanks are given to this group <strong>for</strong> their assistance in reviewing the final draft of the document.<br />
Finally, ERA would like to thank Crown Agents <strong>for</strong> their overall management of the project<br />
