|
|
| 13. PROJECT OBJECTIVE: (Describe the major purpose of the project.) |
|
The Project Development Objective (PDO) is to improve climate resilient road access to economic and human development facilities in targeted provinces.
The achievement of PDO is proposed to be measured through the following PDO-level indicators:
(a) Facilities with improved climate resilient road access (number, disaggregated by facility):
(i) Economic facilities: markets (number);
(ii) Human development facilities: schools (number);
(iii) Human development facilities: hospitals (number);
(b) Direct beneficiaries with reduced travel time to reach the closest facilities (number);
(c) Travel time reduction along the project-financed national and provincial roads (percentage);
(d) Project-financed assets (road and bridges) have a sustained resilience with service level maintained under the OPBRC (percentage).
|
| 14. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: (Provide a description of the project and all its components.) |
|
The RCIP-Phase II will have two component including:
- Component 1: National and Provincial Roads Improvement, will be implemented by MPWT
- Component 2: Rural Roads Improvement (Estimated cost USD 70.00 million), will be implemented by MRD
- Subcompoent 2.1: Improve and Maintenance of Rural Road
- Subcomponent 2.2: Design and Supervision Services for Rural Roads
|
| 15. PROJECT JUSTIFICATION: (Give reasons why this particular project is considered worthwhile.) |
|
The Phase I of RCIP is being implemented by MRD with remarkable progress and rating as very good performance.
According to the performance-based evaluation, there are needs for further improvement of rural roads to build more connectivity between rural road, national roads and provincial roads toward improving economic corridor.
Moreover, most of the rural roads are dominated by unpaved roads while paved rural road is only 9.17% and 90.83% remaining unpaved, while the unpaved is less likely resilient with climate change. With this regards, improving rural roads to be resilient with climate change is a strategic consideration, ensuring all-season access-market acceleration and improved rural livelihood. |
| 16. BENEFITS (Who will benefit, directly and indirectly, from the project?) |
|
The Project is expecting to benefit over 2 million people (about 12% of total country population). Predominately the rural population, across three provinces using the targeted road network. |
