Lesson
Climate risk assessments must be undertaken during project preparation, with results factored into the project design and budgets. The project experienced unforeseen landslides, pointing out the need to (i) improve climate modelling at design stage to incorporate potential climate change impacts on frequency and severity of landslide hazards for projects located in mountainous areas, and (ii) ensure adequate budget or contingency for potential increase of land acquisition during implementation.

Lesson
To help deal with the complexities of land acquisition and meet ADB’s safeguard requirement of payment before construction, linear greenfield projects such as M–4 should benefit from good practices learned in other projects involving multiple federal and provincial agencies in the land acquisition process. Future project designs could consider a pragmatic approach to the complexities of land acquisition and payment of compensation at the early stages of land acquisition, specifically at the time the executing agency is issued the notice to proceed.
