The results of practical application of a complex of geoelectric methods for forming a short-pulsed electromagnetic field (FSPEF), and vertical electric-resonance sounding (VERS) and georadar sounding at destroyed and landslide-dangerous areas of roads are given. It is shown, that the existence of zones with raised filtering of ground waters is the main reason for roadway erosion and landslides formation. The finding and mapping of water flows and areas of the raised soil moistening can be effectively realized with a complex of the suggested geophysical methods. This complex can also be used for regular monitoring of the engineering-geological condition of the environment at landslide-dangerous areas of roads.
