Lesson
Securing funding allocation for critical components during project preparation helps improve economic viability and the achievement of expected results. For example, projects 1 and 3 of the whole program required the rehabilitation of 120 km access roads to sections A, B, and C. These were key project components since most of the economic benefits were to be derived from local roads traffic. However, projects 1 and 3 failed to rehabilitate the secondary roads due to lack of firm financial sources.

Lesson
A road transport program benefits from a solid engineering design undertaken during project preparatory stage. For instance, the detailed design, based on a precise analysis (e.g., technical inputs, standards specifications, and cost estimates, among other things) helps minimize potential cost overrun that often result to implementation delays. Moreover, design details could benefit from reliable traffic forecasts (i.e., use of reliable income elasticities of demand) and adequate surveys, including geological hazards.
