    Abstract:

    Aimed at reducing rural road erosion in the loess hilly region,some engineering measures and biological measures were initially proposed. The engineering control measure design was outlined here,which includes arching center road,blocking and cutting road flow by pond,water storage cellar,and cut-off ditch along road side. Some grasses suitable to road surface planting were also selected. To evaluate the effect of the road erosion controlling designs,several road sections were taken to monitor road erosion for several years. Results showed that intercepted sediment volume from the section with integrated engineering measures was a decrease of 40%~82% compared with no protective measure section. In grass-covered section,erosion modulus was decreased by 58%~70% and runoff,by 50%~69% compared with the bare road. Practice has proved that the integrated conservation measure of water storage tank,cellar,cut ditches,and planting can effectively prevent road erosion.
