Abstract
Almost all Addis Ababa city road projects are exposed to time and cost overrun. Failure of roads also starts before the expected design period expires. The objective of this thesis is to identify the factors adversely affecting the objectives of AACRA road projects and to propose recommendation on how to deal with the problems. To achieve the objectives of the thesis, case study of 10 road projects selected from Addis Ababa, desk studies relevant to the subject matter and 10 interview responses from professionals from the client, consultants and contractors that have been currently working with AACRA have been rigorously assessed. The findings from the research show that the major problem for non-achieving project objectives of AACRA roads is the slow clearance of obstructions from ROW construction limit. There is no formal risk management entertained by any of the parties to address the issue. This thesis also introduces a Project Definition Rating Index (PDRI) tool which is believed by the researcher helpful to assess scope definition completeness at various stages of AACRA road preproject planning process.
