    "description": "<p>Abstract</p>\n\n<p>&nbsp;</p>\n\n<p>The Afroalpine of Bale Mountain National Park (BMNP) known for its biodiversity hotspot. For this purpose, 10 segments on road stretched 34 km from north to south were selected in Afroalpine section of BMNP. At each of the segments, we established two100-m transects perpendicular to the road center line, within which we sampled five macroplots from an area 400 m2. In each macro plots, five quadrant microplots 1m &times; 1m in size were set up for Ground level, Herb level and shrub level plant species survey. Cover plant diversity were measured during the survey. Results indicated that forty eight plant species were recorded within the area of 100 m from the road verge and at ten (10) segments. At the different distances from the road verge and both east and north side of the road could considered. The soil cover, ground cover plant species as Alchimmella pedata and Festuca Abyssinica as well as Helichryssum splindidum from shrub species were higher compared to other species. Menhenick, Shannon and Simpson indices were higher at the distance of 0&ndash;20 m than at the distances of 40&ndash;60 m and 80&ndash;100 m. Smith-Wilson indices decreased when increasing distance to the road. These results are expected to provide critical information for decision makers and protected areas managers for managing plant species and preserving the integrity of biological communitie</p>\n\n<p>&nbsp;</p>\n\n<p>This study was conducted to assess the Public Road Construction Impact on Plant Species Diversity on public road crossing the Afroalpine of BMNP 1</p>",
