Rwanda is undergoing rapid development in transportation through constructing\nnew roads and upgrading existing ones. During implementation of\nthese projects, many accidents for road workers, road users and environment\nissues are raised due to unsafe road construction management techniques.\nThis existing problem was carried out within the City of Kigali for three ongoing\nroad construction projects namely road Ruliba-Karama-Nyamirambo,\nKigali Urban Road Upgrading Projects of Agatare and the Sonatube-Gahanga-\nAkagera road, in order to investigate about the road construction safety management\ntechniques. From the findings, 64.28% results showed that the\nmaintaining of health and safety policy in the road construction sites is applied\nand there exist different means of maintaining safety, such as the provision\nof PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) to the workers at the level of\n57.14% as per the project managers; but from the field observations, it is\nalarming, and many workers do not wear as required.
