Possession of Site: Another Layer of Complexity in Road Construction

Time is money, and it crucial to accelerate road construction improve the accessibility connectivity of infrastructure. Prolonged periods project implementation lead delays cost overruns, further could destabilize industry, causing an economic slowdown. This study explores causes delay in giving site possession, a topic that has received little explicit attention. The authors qualitatively identified delayed possession from 15 case studies. data analysis presented this paper involves two stages: (1) exploring federal projects (2) reviewing three provide significant insights into fundamental reasons for, impacts of, delay. approach contributes better understanding specific using qualitative approach. findings show slow process land acquisition, squatters, compensation disputes contributed possession. developed conceptual framework recommend strategies for mitigating accelerating timelines based on findings.
