No Components Table Name Component 1: Construction of High Capacity Highway:(Cost $340.00 M) Component 2: Institutional Development and Regulatory Framework:(Cost $18.00 M) Component 3: Road Safety and Institutional Development Support to the Transport Sector:(Cost $12.00 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Unsatisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Unsatisfactory Unsatisfactory Overall Risk Rating Substantial Substantial Implementation Status and Key Decisions The contract for construction of Zeway-Arsi Negele road works has been awarded on January 30, 2018 and preliminary activities commenced. However, permanent works haven’t yet started due to delays in clearing right of ways (RoWs and land acquisitions for the road works. ERA is currently finalizing RoW of about 12 km, which should be finalized be end of October 2018. In the next few weeks, ERA will continue working with the local authorities and communities to clear right of ways and do all the necessary measures to handover the site to the contractor in full. It is expected that the contractor will start road works in the coming 3-4 weeks. Most of the other activities that may lead to achieving the results anticipated in the respective components of the project are at different procurement stages, with some expected to be completed in 2-3 months. 10/1/2018 Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Ethiopia- Expressway Development Support Project (P148850) The various technical assistance to ERA and Ministry of Transport (MoT), including hiring of consultants for road safety audit and piloting road safety enforcements on selected corridors is progressing well. To strengthen the capacity of the national road safety council, individual consultants on road safety and procurement were hired and currently working with the team. As part of the technical assistance and capacity building activities to MoT: (i) a training program is underway by an international consulting firm for MoT technical and middle management staff in various discipline, including transport planning and road safety; and (ii) an individual roads safety expert has been hired to advise the National Road Safety Council and the Ministry on road safety related issues. It is expected that the expert will assess the current road safety challenges and the institutional arrangements and produce a proposal for improvements.
