Abstract
Project delays are a common occurrence in any construction project. Road constructions in South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia commonly are not resolved based on a predetermined time. Project delay will result in cost overruns which will reduce contractor profits and decline its corporate image. Therefore, a study is needed to identify the factors that cause project delays and determine the corrections that need to be made by making decisions based on the identification of various factors of delay. This paper aims to identify risk factors, determine the level of risk, and determine preventive measures against the dominant risk factors in road projects. The data were obtained through questionnaires and interviews. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Risk Calculator are used to analyse the level of risk. The result reveals that the dominant risk factor causing road construction delay is less quality control followed by material delays and lack of coordination among project staff.
