Abstract
This paper aims at studying the factors that contribute to time delay and cost overrun
of Road over Bridge (ROB) projects in India. Data for the research study were collected from
62 respondents, including owners, contractors, and consultants of ROB projects. The literature
survey and the questionnaire survey helped in identifying 29 factors. The topmost factors were
ranked based on the frequency of occurrences. The correlation among owners, contractors,
and consultants on ranking of factors was derived by Spearman rank correlation. Factor
analysis was used to classify the factors into groups and identify the key groups responsible for
time delay and cost overrun of projects. This study will help all stakeholders of ROB projects in
India to understand the factors and thereby reduce time delay and cost overrun as well as
expedite their completion.
