Lesson
Optimizing project scope and benefits requires careful analysis of the local context at design stage. Improved roads and market infrastructure resulted in more connected and vibrant rural communities and markets. This has brought moderate increases in household incomes in market catchment areas, but the project did not lead to an increase in agricultural production. The income effects also varied depending on the location and composition of livelihoods.

Lesson
Road safety agenda was not highly prioritized in DOH and understanding of road safety engineering was limited. To enhance efficiency of the developed training program, further strengthening of road safety engineering section and investment prioritization on road safety program are required. Road maintenance program also does not have high profile in DOH, and capacity of potential contractors is limited. Continuous training support is recommended under ADB financed projects, to ensure the sustainability of the TA results.
