Report Date:
Lesson
The engineering design of the road at project preparation should be enhanced, based on sufficient technical, geological and climate surveys. At appraisal, the road design was a general one that was used for the entire country without referencing the specific site, climate and material supply conditions. During implementation, the project design was changed significantly to prevent and reduce pavement cracking, which occurred in previous projects due to extremely low winter temperatures. This led to a significant cost overrun.
