The program has the overall objective to increase transport connectivity between neighboring countries in Central Asia along priority cross-border road links whilst supporting improvements in road operations and maintenance practices. The project development objective (PDO) of the First Phase of the Central Asia Road Links Program (CARs-1) is to increase transport connectivity between the Kyrgyz Republic and Tajikistan along priority cross- border road links in Batken Oblast whilst supporting improvements in road operations and maintenance practices. The road sections to be financed under CARs-1 prioritize connectivity between the Osh and BatkenOblast in the Kyrgyz Republic and Sugd Oblast in Tajikistan as they build lateral spurs from the Osh-Isfana axis to the Tajik border. Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective?

Project financed by development partners are experiencing similar delays. Since project effectiveness in December 2014, the majority of contracts have now been signed, including civil works, construction supervision, procurement of weigh-in-motion system and road maintenance contract. However, actual implementation of project activities only related to component 1 (civil works and supervision), while no actual progress has been made on component 2 activities. The commencement notice for civil works has been issued in May 2016. In order to increase efficiency in project implementation, the Bank team and MOTC with support from IPIG have been discussing options, including reconsidering existing implementation arrangements through IPIG. MOTC confirmed the need to improve and strengthen oversight and accountability mechanisms under the project as well as improve knowledge transfer between IPIG and MOTC. A final decision on proposed measures by MOTC and the government is yet to be submitted to all development partners working in the sector. 6/30/2016 Page 2 of 9 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) 6/30/2016 Page 3 of 9 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) 6/30/2016 Page 4 of 9 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance  --  High  High Macroeconomic  --  Substantial  Substantial Sector Strategies and Policies  --  Substantial  Substantial Technical Design of Project or Program  --  Moderate  Moderate Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability  --  Moderate  Moderate Fiduciary  --  Substantial  Substantial Environment and Social  --  Moderate  Moderate Stakeholders  --  Moderate  Moderate Other  --  --  -- Overall  --  Substantial  Substantial Results Project Development Objective Indicators PHINDPDOTBL  Volume of freight through Kyzyl-Bel/Guliston and Kairagach/Madaniyat border crossing points (Tones/year, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 500000.00 500000.00 500000.00 550000.00 Date 01-Nov-2013 09-Dec-2015 29-Jun-2016 30-Apr-2019 6/30/2016 Page 5 of 9 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) Comments no current value since no works started PHINDPDOTBL  Market accessibility index of Batken Oblast (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 4.60 4.60 4.60 5.50 Date 01-Nov-2013 09-Dec-2015 29-Jun-2016 30-Apr-2019 Comments no current value since no works started PHINDPDOTBL  Road users satisfied with maintenance of the Pulgon-Batken road section (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 80.00 Date 01-Nov-2013 09-Dec-2015 29-Jun-2016 30-Apr-2019 Comments no current value since no works started PHINDPDOTBL  Annual budget allocation for routine (summer and winter) maintenance for road sections in sustainable condition along the corridor under OBI UAD (Amount(USD), Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 80000.00 80000.00 80000.00 200000.00 Date 01-Nov-2013 09-Dec-2015 29-Jun-2016 30-Apr-2019 Comments no current value since no works started 6/30/2016 Page 6 of 9 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) PHINDPDOTBL  Strategic Plan on transport control has been discussed at the regional level (CAREC) and approved by MOTC (Yes/No, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value N N N Y Date 01-Nov-2013 09-Dec-2015 29-Jun-2016 30-Apr-2019 Comments no current value since no works started Overall Comments There is no any changes in baseline indicators as actual civil works have just started in May 2016, and activities under Component 2 have not started yet.
