Short summary
The multivariate evaluation method was applied to establish a landslide susceptibility assessment model along mountains roads. The relationships between the rainfall index, instability index, and landslide occurrence indicate that for a high instability index, even a small rainfall event could trigger a landslide. The instability index thus can effectively reflect landslide susceptibility. The results could serve as a reference for the prevention and mitigation of slope disasters on hillsides.
