Roads in Combat Sample Clauses

Roads in Combat. The World Bank and many governments manage and organize road types using the United States Federal Highway Administration’s (FHA) road classification system. This system consists of four categories: Freeways, Arterials, Collectors, and Local. Most governments further distinguish between urban and rural roads.6 As this project focuses on developing states, the FHA rural roads classification scheme needs a slight adjustment. To reflect the fact that a lot of local/village roads in these developing countries remain unpaved, the local-unpaved category is added. 6 See xxxx://xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/introadshighways/resources/338993-1115316483571/1- roads classification.pdf and xxxx://xxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx/environment/publications/flexibility/ch03. cfm Figure 4.2: Road Functionality Classification System Freeways: City to City Arterials: Cities to Freeways Mobility Collectors: Boulevards and County Roads to Arterials Local-Paved: Homes/Farms to Collectors Local-Unpaved: Farm to Farm Population/Property Access Road categorization is determined based on the relationship between mobility and ac- cess, where mobility refers to the distance of uninterrupted travel and access refers to the easy of entry from adjacent properties. Figure 4.2 illustrates the hierarchy of a functional classification system for a rural roads network. Freeways, and the arterial roads that feed them, link together large population centers and other popular destinations. Collector roads feed traffic from smaller cities and towns into arterial roads. Major boulevards and thor- oughfares are found in this class. These roads cut through towns, intersecting and collecting traffic from local roads, which serve to connect homes, farms, and small businesses with the overall road network. Local unpaved roads place a greater emphasis on connecting rural communities; however, adverse weather can limit mobility on this class of roads. These road classes have varying impacts on the ground mobility options for military commanders. To understand this point, one needs a general classification and description of the different types of military ground vehicles.7 Military ground vehicles can be grouped into five categories based on the level of mobility—the terrain that can be traversed and the time it takes to do so—and the level of protection provided to occupants (Xxxx 1985, Xxxxxxxx 1998). These categories are: Tracked vehicles, wheeled armored personal carriers (APC), light armored vehicles, light utilit...
