Roads are needed To connect one location to another, but not all of them can be ascertained to have good land carrying capacity. The construction of a road body on land that has less bearing capacity (soft land) results in a large decrease and lateral movement. Soft soils are soils that if not carefully identified and investigated can cause problems of instability and long-term decline that cannot be tolerated, they have low shear strength and high compressibility. The method used in this research is experimental method. The test is carried out by looking at the deformation that occurs in soft soils which are not reinforced and in soft soils that are reinforced using plastic bottles woven on a wooden bus and with varying depths of flakes that are 10 cm and 20 cm, with a diameter of 10 cm wood pits. From the results of laboratory testing it is known that the combination of materials from woven plastic bottles and wood buses can reduce the deformation that occurs on soft soil. Deformation that occurs in soils not reinforced with a load of 4 kN is 25.89 mm, while the deformation that occurs in soils that are reinforced using woven plastic bottles on a bus wood pile and with a depth of 10 cm and 20 cm piles with the same load of 4 kN are 8.68 mm, 14.35 mm and 15.62 mm.
