Road construction like any other capital project is labour intensive. The labour particularly the skilled one is often very mobile. A number of studies including the Mode of Transmission Study (MOT) conducted in 2009 shows that mobility is one of the key drivers of the HIV epidemic. The Roads Sector recognised the need to ensure that each road project has a component of mitigating HIV&AIDS impacts since 2002 through the Road Sector Investment Programme (ROADSIP).These guidelines are to be used by supervisors, consultants, contractors, service providers and other stakeholders in the sector.These guidelines have further attempted to strengthen oversight and good governance by encouraging joint monitoring visits as well as the use of local structures and evidence in the AIDS response
