1. The following is part of a research report:

As in many countries, road construction projects often fall behind schedule in Ethiopia. In fact, 72 of 90 ongoing projects in January 2020 had been behind schedule. This is an important issue affecting the management of road construction projects. There is a need to study the main causes of such delays and search for solutions that improve the situation. Delays in road construction have many negative impacts, such as budget over-runs and effects on the economy, the environment and other areas. They particularly affect those who use the roads and/or live near roads under construction, both directly and indirectly. The causes of road construction delays vary by country. Thus, it is important to determine the main common causes of delay in road construction projects in Ethiopia
