Road Connectivity Sector I

Land acquisition. The project acquired the land only for the roads' designed width. During construction, any minor shift of cross section and/or L-section (either longitudinal or vertical) caused changes in land acquisition size and location. This led to deviation in the number of affected households and sizes, requiring additional consultation and acquisition and delaying implementation. This may be avoided by acquiring a slightly wider slip (10%), depending on the elevation and dimensions of the road cross sections.
