Description
This video defines the four principal features of a ditch and their functions. It then demonstrates two methods of mechanical cleaning of ditches. The first uses a motor grader and the other uses a backhoe. It stresses the importance of reestablishing positive drainage that is critical to prevent sub-base and base failures of the roadway. It is a good training film, excellent for maintenance crews and new members of the work force.
