Abstract In this project, a mathematical model for cholera epidemic is presented and analyzed in order to determine effects of the control measures. The epidemic threshold known as the basic reproduction number and equilibrium for the models are determined. Basic properties and stability analysis of the model is carried out. We also considered a situation where the control measures were introduced simultaneously into the model. The analytical predictions were confirmed by numerical simulation results. These solutions show the behavior of the population in time t. We proved that the disease free equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable under prescribed conditions on the given parameters. Numerical approximations are carried out using parameter values from published data to investigate the effect of transmission parameters on the dynamics of the infection. We simulated cases with control and without control strategies. Generally from this project we understand that Control measures are reduces the rate of the spread of the disease.
