Présentation du programme
Fundamentals of Road Construction and Maintenance equips infrastructure professionals with practical skills to plan, build, rehabilitate, and maintain road networks that are safe, durable, and economically sustainable.
As governments and development partners accelerate investments in transport infrastructure, the challenge is no longer only construction, it is quality delivery, lifecycle maintenance, climate resilience, and cost-effective asset management.
Participants responsible for prioritizing investments may also explore our Road Prioritization & Economic Analysis (HDM-4) Training, which strengthens evidence-based maintenance planning and funding decisions.
This intensive programme bridges engineering fundamentals with modern project delivery practices, enabling participants to design, supervise, and maintain road infrastructure aligned with international standards and donor-funded project requirements.
Participants gain applied knowledge in:
- Road design fundamentals and construction methods
- Pavement systems (gravel & asphalt)
- Quality assurance and materials testing
- Maintenance planning and rehabilitation strategies
- Drainage systems and climate resilience
- Road safety and worksite management
- Contract supervision and performance monitoring
Asian Development Bank Transport Sector, which finances road construction, rehabilitation, maintenance, and road safety programmes across Asia.

Pertinence régionale & mise en application
Many countries across Asia, Africa, and emerging economies continue to invest heavily in transport infrastructure to improve trade connectivity, urban mobility, regional integration, and economic development. Governments and development partners are increasingly prioritizing road rehabilitation, climate-resilient infrastructure, highway expansion, urban transport corridors, and integrated transport systems linked to ports, logistics hubs, airports, and railway developments.
Ce programme de formation pour cadres est particulièrement utile aux professionnels travaillant dans :
- Southeast Asia, where rapid urbanization, expressway expansion, metro rail projects, and regional transport corridor development continue to increase demand for durable and well-maintained road infrastructure
- South Asia, where governments are accelerating investments in highways, rural connectivity programmes, smart cities, and multimodal transport systems linked to growing railway and logistics networks
- Africa, where major road corridor programmes, regional trade routes, mining infrastructure, and donor-funded transport projects require stronger construction supervision, maintenance planning, and lifecycle asset management
- Middle East, where large-scale urban development, economic diversification programmes, logistics corridors, and integrated transport infrastructure projects continue to expand rapidly
Across many regions, transport agencies and contractors face growing pressure to improve construction quality, reduce premature pavement failures, strengthen climate resilience, and optimize long-term maintenance funding.
The increasing development of rail systems, urban transit projects, dry ports, industrial corridors, and regional logistics infrastructure also places greater importance on road connectivity, feeder roads, access corridors, and integrated transport planning.
This programme equips participants with practical engineering approaches, maintenance strategies, supervision techniques, and internationally aligned infrastructure practices to improve road asset performance, transport reliability, and sustainable infrastructure delivery.
Host Country Profile – Hanoi, Vietnam
