3.1. Location
The survey was conducted at the intersection of R. Magsaysay Avenue and F. Ma.
Guerrero St. located within the University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City.

The survey was carried out on Monday, 5 September, 2016 from 4:00PM to 6:00PM.
3.3. Weather
A sunny/ bright weather was experienced during the conduct of the survey.
Surveyors looked into the current conditions of the road by measuring and taking
into account all nearby landmarks, signposts, lamps and other objects that might
have an impact on the traffic in the area. Furthermore, the dimensions of the
intersection were measured using a surveyor’s wheel. Photos were taken on-site
for selected road inventory items. A scaled drawing of the road intersection’s plan
view is then produced in a CAD software.
VI. ANALYSIS
Sidewalk R. Magsaysay Avenue, due to its recent reblocking, has better sidewalk
condition than along F. Ma. Guerrero. F. Ma. Guerrero on the other hand
has cracked sidewalk. Most of the sidewalks are 1.5 meters in width, but
the cracked sidewalks are 1.2-1.3 meters wide.
Wheelchair access ramps found along R. Magsaysay Avenue are
observed to be in good condition. There are no similar facilities in the F.
Ma. Guerrero St. side.
Road Markings Both have pedestrian crosswalks made of paint, a material which tends
to deteriorate easily. Sidewalk curbs are not painted, visibility at night
may be a potential hazard. Furthermore, there are no intersection box
markings.
Road Signages Road Signages marking the streets and nearby buildings (Romulo Hall,
Bocobo Hall) are visible. A directional sign for the University Hotel is also
seen at the intersection.
Service There are four manholes, three of them located in the intersection and
Provisions one in the F. Ma. Guerrero street just a few meters away from the
intersection. All manholes are covered in good condition and are not
considered as hazard to vehicles.
