The affected slope comprises highly weathered sandstone, shale and sandy insitu soil, with regolith thickness of about 0.5ΓÇô2 m. The area is susceptible to landslides. Excavation and toe cutting further weakened and destabilized the slope.  Subsequen

Lithology in this area consists of weathered, friable, loosely packed sandstone which is highly susceptible to slope cut failure.

1. Moderation of slope gradient may be considered.
2. Removal of precariously hanging trees at the crown portion to shed the static load.
3. Revegetation of slope with fibrous roots system plants.
4. Construction of hillside lined draiNGe.

Cutting of natural slope for road construction, highly weathered, friable, loosely packed sandstone, and reduction of shear strength due to heavy downpour were the chief causative factors for the slope failure.
