In a highly time-sensitive sector such as ICT, high project readiness could help prevent start-up delays and enforce the commitment of the executing agencies.

Project Number: 40054-013
Project Name: South Asia Subregional Economic Cooperation (SASEC) Information Highway Project
Report Date:
Lesson
Regional projects, wherein overall project outputs are achieved through the interconnecting outputs of individual countries, should provide for an overarching, hands-on, and flexible mechanism to ensure timely execution of project activities within all the countries as well as coordination across countries.

Lesson
For projects involving many stakeholders, maximum consideration should be given in the project design to efficient and streamlined implementation arrangements. Also, in the design of projects in highly time-sensitive sectors, an institutional set-up is needed that will help to expedite implementation schedules, provide flexibility in adapting to market changes, and engage private sector stakeholders who are generally more active in such sectors.

Data collection, especially of baseline data, is critical. Greater priority should have been given to ensuring that socioeconomic and baseline data were collected and reported, especially during the appraisal period.

Project Number: 36105-013
Project Name: Chittagong Port Trade Facilitation Project
Report Date:
Lesson
Periodic reviews of a port’s IT systems are imperative. The container cargo volume currently being handled is already well above the capacity of the CTMS. Although a prolonged operational standstill has not occurred, the risk of a system breakdown will grow as increased usage strains CTMS capacity.

Lesson
Urban areas adjacent to port developments should anticipate the growth of port traffic in their urban plans. City development efforts should consider the impact of likely growth in port traffic on both intra- and inter-city traffic. Port and city authorities should draw up coordinated short- and medium-term infrastructure plans to accommodate urban and port growth. Chittagong City has been experiencing growth in its population, the number of commercial establishments and industries, and vehicular city traffic.

One mode cannot serve all the transport services, so multimodal transport needs to be considered for cargo movements. In the case of Chittagong Port, connector and port access roads were built under the project. Other projects involving double tracking of the Dhaka–Chittagong rail route and a capacity expansion of the Dhaka–Chittagong Highway, are being undertaken to improve port connectivity.

Lesson
Future port project designs should consider intermodal connectivity. Ingress and egress to the port area are critical to the efficiency of transport infrastructure and services. Most of the major ports in Asian countries are located in major urban centers, which initially did not pose any problem since cargo volumes were still small. As cargo volumes have increased because of economic and population growth, port areas have expanded while local transport networks have failed to keep pace.
