Land Impacts:

Land Clearance: The pre-construction phase often involves clearing land, which can result in the removal of vegetation, trees, and other natural
features.
Habitat Loss: Land clearance and construction activities can lead to the loss or fragmentation of natural habitats, affecting wildlife populations
and biodiversity.
Soil Erosion: Construction activities can disturb the soil, leading to increased erosion and sedimentation in nearby water bodies. This can degrade
soil quality and harm aquatic ecosystems.

and biodiversity.
Soil Erosion: Construction activities can disturb the soil, leading to increased erosion and sedimentation in nearby water bodies. This can degrade
soil quality and harm aquatic ecosystems.

Water Impacts:

Runoff and Sedimentation: Construction activities can result in increased stormwater runoff, carrying sediment and pollutants into nearby water
bodies. This can lead to sedimentation, water quality degradation, and harm to aquatic life.
Disruption of Hydrology: Road projects can alter natural water flow patterns, affecting drainage systems, wetlands, and water availability in the
surrounding area.

People Impacts:

Noise and Vibrations: Construction activities generate noise and vibrations that can cause disturbance, inconvenience, and potential health
effects for nearby residents.
Traffic Disruptions: Road construction can lead to temporary road closures, detours, and traffic congestion, impacting commuting patterns and
travel times for people in the area.
Economic and Social Effects: Construction activities can have both positive and negative economic impacts on local communities. They may
create job opportunities but also disrupt local businesses and livelihoods temporarily.
Health and Safety: Construction sites pose potential safety hazards, and workers and nearby residents may be exposed to risks if proper safety
measures are not in place.

To minimize and mitigate these potential impacts, road projects should follow best practices and implement mitigation measures such as:

Conducting environmental impact assessments to identify potential impacts and develop appropriate mitigation strategies.
Implementing erosion control measures to prevent soil erosion and sedimentation in nearby water bodies.
Using dust control measures, such as water spraying, to minimize airborne dust and particulate matter.
Employing construction methods and technologies that reduce emissions and noise levels.
Implementing effective stormwater management practices to control runoff and protect water quality.
Engaging with local communities, addressing concerns, and implementing appropriate measures to minimize disruptions and ensure public
safety.
By carefully considering and managing these impacts throughout the pre-construction and construction phases, road projects can be carried out
in a more sustainable and responsible manner.
