The bus shelter is set back from the roadway approximately 5 feet. To the rear of the bus shelter is a cul-de-sac surrounded by residential dwellings and a brick wall in close proximity to the bus shelter. The enclosed photos are provided to you as a resource to be used in completing the assignment.
Your supervisor discusses the project with you and requests that you develop a risk register associated with this project before work begins. You will need to identify potential risks including threats and opportunities, and develop a Risk Register. Your assignment, is to design and present a complete risk register associated with the scenario provided. Your risk register should include the following items:

c. Likelihood/Probability
d. Impact

Answer 1

Answer:

Risks of the project include

disruption in the highway during renovation process. - High risk

Poor material used in the construction - High risk

Rainfall may delay the work process. - Medium risk

Traffic flow management will be difficult during peak hours. - Medium risk

Dust and noise during the construction will disturb the society. - Low risk

Explanation:

The risk register includes Risk description, its impact in terms of probability and measures to mitigate such risk. There are many potential risks that are associated with the construction of the bus shelter. The risks are not acceptable as the highway disruption should be kept to minimum and any delay in the work is not tolerable. These risks are reduced by deploying extra labors so that the renovation work is completed on time.
