|
Improving climate resilience of the rural transport system by connecting road network to the coastline zone. The proposed investment will contribute to sustainable
economic growth and poverty reduction efforts of the government through enhanced
connectivity to markets, jobs, improved all-season accessibility to education and
medical facilities and reduced transportation cost and time of population and
business in the project areas.
- Supporting human capital development and social services through improved all-season access to school, hospital/health centres, commune cenres and reduce road crush-related fatalities and disabilities. |

|
| 13. PROJECT OBJECTIVE: (Describe the major purpose of the project.) |
|
The project development objective is to improve climate resilient road access to economic and social facilities in coastline provinces; the achievement of PDO is proposed to be measured through the following PDO-level indicators:
• Rural road upgraded with climate resilience measures (kilometer)
• Bridges repaired/upgraded with climate resilience measures (number)
• People with reduced travel time to economic and social facilities (number)
•Economic facility: people with reduced travel time to market (number)
•Social facility: people with reduced travel time to schools, referral hospitals, health centers ,commune centers, posts, public conveniences
• Ensure all-year road access for rural population (accessibility)
• Total beneficiaries of project(number) |
| 14. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: (Provide a description of the project and all its components.) |
|
Roads are vitally important for transportation in Cambodia, both in urban and rural areas. Roads in Cambodia are jointly connected from urban to rural areas with a total length of about 63,134 km, including: (i) National Road (ii) Provincial Road and (iii) Rural Roads. About 7,261 km is National Road, Provincial Road is 9,031 km and 46,842 km is Rural Road. Ministry of Rural Development is responsible for rural roads while Ministry of Public Work and Transport is responsible for national and provincial roads. Among the total rural road network, in the coastal zone, it is about 2760km, entirely about 5% are paved and dominating 95% are unpaved and among the unpaved rural road, 72% are laterite or gravel roads. The majority of rural roads particularly unpaved are in poor condition and those roads are further deteriorated due to insufficient maintenance. the scope of work for coastal road improvement is length of 300km. |
| 15. PROJECT JUSTIFICATION: (Give reasons why this particular project is considered worthwhile.) |
|
This project is mainly developed toward the climate resilience rural road connectivity and ensure the all-season access for integrated rural development in the coastline zone . Build back better the rural roads that have been jeopardized by recent flood and targeted for most affected coastline provinces. Among many roads, only backbone roads are prioritized to improve toward sustainability and climate resilience and serving for economic corridor. Improved rural connectivity is to promote lifeline of national economic development with inclusive growth of social and economic. |
| 16. BENEFITS (Who will benefit, directly and indirectly, from the project?) |
|
The project is expected to benefit over 1 million people, predominantly a rural population across four provinces using the targeted road network. About 70% are women living in these four provinces.
