| 12. PROJECT LOCATION: (Describe the location of the project and its components.) |
|
|
| 13. PROJECT OBJECTIVE: (Describe the major purpose of the project.) |
|
The main objectives of the Project are as follows:
(i) To mitigate traffic congestion and air pollution in the downtown of Siem Reap;
(ii) To promote regional economic development by elevating inter-regional accessibility;
(iii) To strengthen competitiveness of Siem Reap as a tourist city;
(iv) To expand residential areas and stimulate commercial activities in the southern areas of Siem Reap, in the long term. |
| 14. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: (Provide a description of the project and all its components.) |
|
- National Road No. 6 (“NR6”) crossing Siem Reap city center is a major national arterial road which serves as the axis of economic development connecting Phnom Penh, Siem Reap and Thailand. The insufficient capacity of NR6 to meet increased traffic demand has caused serious inconvenience in commercial activities such as trade between Cambodia and Thailand. In addition, traffic congestion and air pollution along the NR6 in the city center blemished the reputation of Siem Reap as a tourist city.
- The Urban Siem Reap Bypass (“NR6-1”) has been suggested under these circumstances, (i) to divert the traffic flow on NR6 away from the Siem Reap city center, with particular focus on the long-distance heavy goods vehicles traversing between Phnom Penh and the borders to Thailand in the East, (ii) to mitigate traffic congestion in downtown of Siem Reap, (iii) to increase transit traffic, reduce transport costs and travel time, and improve road safety, and (iv) to establish the outer circular road network based in Siem Reap.
- The long term effect of NR6-1 is (i) to generate commercial activities and expand the residential areas to the southern part of the city, (ii) to promote sustainable economic and world-class tourism development in Siem Reap, as well as facilitate regional connectivity in the Mekong Region, particularly the Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS)’s Southern Economic Corridor, (iii) to establish a new town and commercial sphere based on the Siem Reap Bypass, and (iv) to give rise to increased use of NR63 which leads to the Great Tonle Sap Lake to the South from the city via its junction with the proposed bypass.
- The MPWT first introduced this project to KEXIM Phnom Penh Representative Office through EDCF Quarterly Portfolio Review Meeting in May 2019, as part of the new project list seeking EDCF financing. Followed by further consultation with the MEF and the KEXIM Headquarter Mission during EDCF Working Level Discussions in Cambodia in June 2019, EDCF and the MEF agreed to support EDCF feasibility study for the Project. And later, the MEF requested for EDCF assistance for the project feasibility study on October 2, 2019.
