CAREC Regional Road Corridor Improvement Project

Road safety and road asset management. Road safety and road asset management components should be included in all future transport projects because they are essential to the sustainability of projects and to their effectiveness. As road safety involves various agencies, the design and implementation arrangements for this component should be based on extensive discussions with all related agencies and policy dialogue with high-level government bodies. Similarly, comprehensive road asset management plans should be developed during project design in consultation with the agencies responsible for road assets development and for operation and maintenance.
