1.Dressing of the slope/ removal of precariously hanging trees and debris 2.Construction of retaining wall of considerable height at the toe portion of the slope cut maybe considered 3.Maintenance of hill side lined drainage.
1. The affected slope comprises highly friable sandstone and shale 2. Unscientific slope modification for road construction 3. Structurally controlled, such as joints and fold 4. Over-saturation of weak slope forming material due to rainfall.
