Risk Matrix for Factors Affecting Time Delay in Road Construction Projects: Consultants’ Perspective

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to identify the risk matrix for factors causing time delay in road construction projects in the West Bank in Palestine from consultants’ viewpoint. Three zones were used in the matrix according to the degree of factors severity on the projects’ time delay; which are: green, yellow, and red. The analysis of 43 factors considered in a survey indicates that 2 factors are located in the green zone, 28 factors are located in the yellow zone, and 13 factors are located in the red zone.
