Lesson
Adequate due diligence at appraisal is important to prepare a realistic project schedule considering the institutional setup, internal review and approval procedures, existing capacity, and prior experience of the government and executing agency in implementing ADB and other development partners’ projects. Formulating appropriate project design, identifying major risks, implementing adequate mitigation measures, and providing early implementation support are crucial in minimizing startup delays and facilitating timely implementation progress of projects.

Lesson
It is important to obtain accurate information during the design and appraisal stage to help facilitate growth forecasts of traffic volumes. Such information provides a solid groundwork to assess a transport project’s economic viability and efficiency and helps underpin its rationale, scope, and implementation timeframe. Greater consideration on the survey or collection of traffic data is crucial in enhancing the quality of project-level economic analysis

Lesson
The establishment of a project performance management system (PPMS), which was not covenanted in the grant agreement, could have provided a useful source of data on which to develop an economic analysis model; identify, quantify, and value economic benefits; and assess the efficiency of the project. Because of the emergency nature of the project, baseline data could be collected during project implementation to enable data comparison after project completion.
