Abstract : The study was aimed for improving the approach road and slope conditions and designing of approach roads for the future better flow of heavy vehicles and slopes for erosion control and confinement of waste as much as possible by providing steeper slopes. Due to repeated application of heavy loads, pavement layers deteriorate and hence damage assessment procedures are performed to rectify the defects produced in approach road. The impending monsoon season and ongoing frequent showers, conditions were getting increasingly difficult and posed major challenges in maintaining the serviceability of the approach road because of that difficulty in reaching to destination the garbage dumpers dropping the disposable waste before the point. So the whole point of disposing it in landfill and managing to relocate it to the disposal area tends to cause financial losses. Geocell is a cost-effective and permanent solution, hence the use of geocell has been proposed. The use of geocells increases the stability of the roads & slopes and improves its performance by improving the bearing capacity of the soil. This paper is an effort to do a relative study between the conventional approach road and geocell reinforced approach road. Both results are compared, analysed and likely conclusions are described.
