1 Performance Monitoring System Of the Ethiopian Road Sector Development Program (June 14, 2004)

2 RSDP MONITORING INDICATORS Structure of presentation 1) Background 2) Brief Definition of the Indicator 3) Data Collection 4) Trends of Indices and Ratios (Findings) 5) Conclusions 6) Recommendations

3 Road Sector Development Program Time Period: Investment Size: 3 billion USD Financiers: WB, EU, ADB, OPEC, BADEA, NDF, UK, Germany, Japan, Italy, Sweden, DCI, SDF, RF, GOE.

4 Institutional Arrangement Ethiopian Roads Authority -established in 1951, responsible for federal roads of about 16,000 km 8 Regional Road Authorities responsible for rural roads of about 17,000 km

5 I Background 1.1 Monitoring System Introduced in A Procedure For updating Established 1.3 A Total of 15 Indicators Identified and Four More included later on 1.4 The Usefulness of the Indicators To serve as check on the viability of objectives, institutional requirements and risk containment To Enable Quick Tracking To clarify purpose and guide design To determine how outputs meet expectations To help in gauging development impact

6 Brief Description of the Indicators 2.1 Benefit Indicators Road Density Traffic flow Roughness and road condition Vehicle Operating Costs Freight and Passenger Tariffs Fatalities and Accidents Journey Time Employment for Local Labor Income for Local Labor

7 Brief Description of the Indicators 2.2 Sustainability Indicators Maintenance Budget and Expenditure Kilometers Maintained (Routine) Maintenance Cost / Cost of Maintaining Network Ratio Time for Payments to Consultants and Contractors Time for Contract Administration Private / Total Construction ratio Labour-Based / Total Construction Ratio Actual Axle Load / Legal Limit Ratio Construction, Rehabilitation and Maintenance Costs Skill Upgrading - Training

8 DATA COLLECTION (SOURCES) ROAD DENSITY TRAFFIC FLOW ERA + REGIONS ERA ROUGHNESS + ROADS CONDITION Visual Inspection (Sample Paved & Gravel Roads) Vehicle Operating Cost - Unit Prices - Vehicle Utilization Vehicle Dealers, Vehicle Maintenance Workshops, Transport Companies, Fuel Stations, Retail Establishments, CSA.

16 Three Additional Indicators Employment for Local Labour (2001/2002) Total Employment (no) 9448 Skilled (no) 2373 Emp. Local labour (no.) 4335 Emp. International Contr. (no.) 5113 Emp. For women 695

17 Three Additional Indicators Income Generated for Local Labour 2001/2002 Million Birr Total 31.4 By Women 2.54 From Int. Contra From Local Contra. 15.7

18 Three Additional Indicators Skill Upgrading Baseline(2001/02) Professional (no.) 23 Topo Survey (no.) 1 Mechanics(no.) 9 Adm. + Acc. (no.) 5 ERTTP (no.) 300 Labour-based based (no.) 166 Operators, Foremen, etc 313

19 Conclusions ns The Overall Findings Show Signs of Progress towards: Improving Accessibility Reducing proportion of roads rated poor Reducing Journey Time Increasing VOC Savings Reducing Time for Payment to Consultants and Contractors

20 Conclusions ns Reducing Time for Payment Reducing Time for Contract Administration Enhancing Private Sector Participation

21 Conclusions ns On the Contrary, there are Shortcomings Concerning: Road Safety Kilometers of Roads Maintained (Primarily Regional) Labor-Based Technology Maintenance Expenditure/Capacity Local contracting capacity

22 Conclusions ns Further, there are uncertainties about Freight rates and passenger fares Maintenance Cost /Total Cost of Maintained Network Note: External Factors affected performance. About Monitoring System: Limitations in data management.

23 Recommendations The following are the main Recommendations: A More Coordinated Investment Program and Recurrent Budget/Exp.. To Expand Road Network to Improve Spatial Accessibility Strengthen Enforcement of Axle Load Regulations and Assess Future Policy For Maximizing Economic Gain From Use of Larger Trucks Beyond The Prevailing Limit.

24 Recommendations Ensure Effective Enforcement of Traffic Law and Introduce Road Safety Education and Publicity Campaigns Create Accident Analysis Capacity for Introducing Road Safety Measures Formulate Road Maintenance Program Based on Need

25 Recommendations Expedite Transforming Maintenance Districts to Enterprises Oriented Towards Contract Management Provide Technical and Financial Support to the Local Contracting Industry (e.g. start up capital) Introduce Balancing - Packaging in International Tendering Integrate Labour-Based Technology in Regional Road Programmes

26 Could we say The indicators created the lens through which we see the RSDP Some Provocative Questions Questions - THANK YOU-
