ABSTRACT
The aim of this project is to carry out a route survey of major roads within Kogi State Polytechnic main campus Lokoja. The execution involves three exercises which involves total station traversing, longitudinal profile leveling and cross sectional leveling. The NIKO DT-352 total station (coordinate mode) was used to acquire cross sectional and longitudinal sectioning of the route. The result proved the potency of the method in acquiring data for route survey. After carrying out all this, the data was used to product plans showing the oriented route of the study areas i.e the longitudinal and cross sectional line.
