| Summary: | 碩士 === 朝陽科技大學 === 營建工程系 === 103 === The demand of better road surface smoothness and service level has been dramatically increased by civilians as the economic development progress in Taiwan reached the peak in the past several decades. Transportation agencies in local and central government levels have carried out “flat road” projects which include plan, design, construction, maintenance and dig-control policy and strategy to better maintain the local road and city street to meet the severe expectations by the citizens. The main scope of the flat road projects includes a corporate dig-fill-pave control program to avoid repeated excavations which leave the roads in an endless repairing condition of continuous excavation.
The study in the research was conducted based on a practical “flat-road” project carried out by the city of Nantou in Nantou County, to investigate the effectiveness of the project, and related regulation/policy implementation both in the local and central government levels. With the limited time and resources allowed, the flat-road project was regarded as high priority by the construction department of Nantou city. In general, the results of the flat-road project failed to meet the expectations by the residents of Nantou city regarding the smoothness and level of service of the city streets included in the study area. The purpose of the research was to study the reasons and causes of the unsuccessfulness of the projects as regard to investigate the impacts by human factors and the in-balances between road construction technology and road maintenance policy by the local government agencies. The results of the study can be used to provide important information for similar road maintenance/administration programs which are currently underway in other local governments in Taiwan.
