Planning 1 Homework : Essay and Illustrations

Explain why one of the most critical channel is the Road Right of Way (RROW).

The total amount of land purchased for the development of the road is known as the right of way. Its
width ought to be sufficient to handle all of the road's cross sections, any upcoming road widening, and
any upcoming installation of public utility infrastructure. RoW is the portion of the road along its
alignment that was acquired for carriageways, additional needs, and potential extension. A good practice
is to purchase RoW that is wide enough to accommodate the final development and all of the road's
components. The points of entry and exit to the major roadway are restricted to the locations, types,
and dimensions shown on the plans under the controlled access right of way.

Explain why, among the utilities, the water supply is likely to be the most critical at the community
scale.

Everyone is aware that water is necessary for human, plant, and animal existence. Since the dawn of
civilization, people have lived near water sources. Water is unfortunately scarce or contaminated in
many nations. A improved water supply can help people live better lives and is both a prerequisite for
and a source of socioeconomic growth. In addition to local factors like climate, population density, and
cultural behaviors, several diseases in underdeveloped or poor countries are due to inadequate or
unclean water. A improved water supply can help people live better lives and is both a prerequisite for
and a source of socioeconomic growth.
