Master Plan for Road Network Improvement Project

Summary

The purpose of the technical assistance (TA) is to (i) develop a road development program for efficient and effective road rehabilitation for the next 5–10 years, taking into account operation and maintenance (O&M) financing requirements; and (ii) prepare a high priority road improvement project for ADB’s follow-on investment.

Expected Outcome

The efficient and effective rehabilitation of the road network will support poverty reduction, economic growth, national integration, and the peace process in the country.

Expected Outputs

The TA will have two components:

• the master plan component, which will prioritize road sections based on objective criteria and formulate implementation strategies for a financing mechanism for sustainable O&M; and
• the feasibility study component, which will prepare a road project from the engineering, economic, social, and environmental points of view.
