Members of the Farah Provincial Reconstruction Team stand on a newly compacted soil surface, known as a sub-base, that will soon be considered the Farah to Pusht Rod segment of Route 515, Feb. 16, Farah province, Afghanistan. The PRT-sponsored road project, being built by the Brotheran Alekoza Farahi Construction Company, is 55 percent complete according to Akhond Zadah, one of the owners of the company. The PRT visited the road to assess new culverts, check and clear old culverts, look at the water damaged areas due to recent flooding, take a soil sample and speak with the contractors about challenges or concerns that may delay the project's completion.
