INTRODUCTION The roads having traffic less than 500 vehicles per day and connecting the rural areas are generally called low-volume roads or rural roads (Sinha, et al., 2002) (Gallegoa, Moyab, Pinie´, & Ayugad, 2008). Whilst the works described may be used any country in planning low-volume rural roads, the data are used from Nepal in this study. Road networks in Nepal are classified as strategic road network (SRN), urban road networks and rural road network (RRN). Strategic road networks are road
