Lesson
More robust due diligence is needed during project design and formulation to enable the closest possible cost estimates and to set aside enough resources to cover contingencies. This can result in considerable time savings. The values of the works contracts were significantly higher than originally estimated. Further, the amounts had to be increased during implementation because of an unprecedented increase in material costs, besides the extra earthwork needed.

Lesson
A properly designed project can minimize the risk of changes in quantities and scope during implementation and can contribute to timely completion within budget. For this project, the geological nature and conditions were complex and fragile and no detailed study was carried out at appraisal. This caused several changes in the estimation of earthwork needed during implementation and made detailed geological studies in the middle of the process necessary. The entire project design and financing plans were affected.

The loan and grant were approved together, and the information and education campaign (IEC) activities under the grant were extended to people engaged in civil works financed by the loan. The IEC activities were managed by the health officials trained through the HIV/AIDS and Mitigation Program. Such synergetic (cross-sector) approaches may be applied to future transport projects, considering the worldwide HIV/AIDS prevalence.
