Interesting facts
- Compromising between mountainous areas and existing intersections to obtain the most comfortable roadway
- Complete village wide reviews of the existing potable/sewerage water distribution systems to determine a plan of action for the replacement of their aging water and waste water mains
- Comprehensive database was fully integrated including special data on topography and geology in Arc View based GIS system
