Unplanned urban extended is one of the biggest problems with a negative impact on public roads, in the absence of laws and legislation regulating construction and urban extended. The research aims to study and analyze the impact of random urban extension on roads in general and the regional road passing through the city of Zintan in particular, where the regional road is the main artery that connects the city of Zintan with other cities and urban communities. Through the study, it was found that the road suffers from traffic jams, whether for residents of the city or those passing through it, and it has reached a stage where it is impossible to implement any solutions to develop it. The random urban extension prevented the possibility of duplication and opening service paths on its sides and not leaving the axes of urban extension safe now and in the future due to the violation of the laws and legislation of the Urban Planning Department. So this study came to identify the impact of the phenomenon of random urban sprawl on roads, in order to reach the planning treatments that must be taken into account, by following the descriptive and analytical approach to the effect of the phenomenon of this sprawl on traffic movement and the topography of the land and on the visual vision and agricultural lands. It can be used to address this phenomenon now and in the future.
